    helmet speakers

    Motorcycle For Sale 2008 FJR relisting for sale just not riding as much

    Seat Confusion

    Riding pants

    Its 325 miles to Shallowater from Ft Worth. Motorcyclegear.com They have all their stuff in stock and you can try on pants there in the shop. Very nice folks. Just a little day trip on the FJR. Klim sizing is pretty strange so they have them in stock to get the right fit by trying on.

    Oil filter

    This is exactly what I have been using on every motorcycle, car, and pickup for years. Never fails. You may need to bend the ears in just a bit for your mc filter but it will remove the filter. A HarborFreight must have.
