" Remove ALL inner panels and you will be able to access the mirror mounts", says my cherry Oz friend! Pictures to follow, but the view is great and the look is just fine. Very Happy!!

The good news....the parts arrived yesterday! :yahoo: The bad news....how much of our bike do we have to take apart before we access the freaking mirror mounts!!!!???? :assassin: After 11 screws, one bolt and removing a mirror for nothing, I put everything back together and went to my...

Can you say,"Personal choice?" If the look pleases you, then go for it! As to the sound, have you tried UTUBE to see if there are any sound clips that may give you an idea as to the noise/sound level? Good luck!! :yahoo:

Like I said,"I'm not in your league!" :blink: Good luck and keep us informed! :yahoo:

PM sent.

Hey Scottej, I actually understood your explanation, but understand that I was just having fun with your choice of words! :yahoo:

OMG! There are only a few thousand words in the english language that stump me and "stoichiometric" is one! :o It is in the dictionary and I apologize to 'pickles' for the heady route this tread has taken..... lol:D

Now that's a reply!! :read: I'd love to see this type of comparison, as it will 'put some money on the table' during discussions. I run MOBIL 1 MX4T in the FJR and do not want to use a diesel product instead. I'll save that for the truck! Watching......

Sadly this tire is only rated for 270 plus km\hr ....sigh! :angry2: I am very interested in comments about this tire as members put some miles under their rides.

Good to know as I am requesting a quote from Cougar relative to a set of Two Brother black slip ons. :yahoo:

LAF, Any pics of your mirror choice? Since the extenders are pictured on this thread, a comparison photo would be great. PS...Is it true the unpainted 2010 is slower that the "so fast the paint burns black" 2009? :yahoo:

Thanks for a detailed and clear answer to my meanderings. Clearly I am not in your league, and to 'learn' all the data for devices yada yada, I'll pass. As such, I have just filled out a requisition (triplicate) with 'management' and will purchase slip ons for the sound & weight benefits when...

Other than HRZ sending me a note that he will buy my slip ons for $100 if I don't like them...nothing?? Someone out there must be running a PCV with stock mufflers while others will be touring with the Auto Tune with or without mufflers. I am trying to save my marraige ;) AND learn...

Great to hear that, thanks! Geez ...ordered them hours ago....where are they?

Pics to follow! :yahoo:

I am lucky that the black extension blocks will match my '09. Your cost analysis escapes me as the two blocks shipped are less than two FZ1 mirrors shipped and will put the mirrors exactly ( I hope ) out the distance required to clear arms & elbows. :yahoo:

I have had my Power Commander V installed and am extremely pleased with the result. I am running the DYNOJET Map for now with a 'stock' map that I can swith to. Throttle response, fuel consumption etc., are all improved. :yahoo: My dilemma is that I have considered buying the AutoTune Module...

:yahoo: Twisted Throttle is definitely fast. Ordered last night and the extensions are already with the mail service and the tracking number is with me. These things should give plenty of extra horsepower...... :rolleyes: ....or at least allow me to see who I have passed!

AS to what are they made of......polyamide.... which is a strong nylon compound. :dwarf: PS...Twisted Throttle seem to have the best price so far during my search. :detective2: PS2... get HotRodZilla to pay for yours and the cost is even better! :yahoo:

:rolleyes: Actually liljohn, you bike is trying to tell you to convert to metric with the rest of the world!....just sayin'....:nhl_checking:
