Here's some real wisdom from our own community, especially for anyone with Gen 1 or 2 FJRs. Enjoy! https://www.fjrforum.com/threads/new-suspension-settings.14779/

Didn't think of that. Now I've got a stiff neck....

Torsion Bars!!!! Crap- I'm a page late!

After shifting into my imaginary 6th gear about a go-zillion times, I've figured out that- 1. I'm usually not looking at the speedo, and- 2. I'm moving much more quickly than it seems The FJR continues to deal out Deceptive Speed, thanks to that Top Fuel Locomotive of an engine. My opinion...

-Hence the S(Symmetrical) and R(Right). The education never stops. Thanks Luis!

The saga continues: It seems that the D1R has a glare shield on it, and the base is notched differently than the D1S. I can't look at the good one right now as I'm TDY in Georgia at the moment. Link; https://www.hidplanet.com/forums/showthread.php?44269-D1R-bulbs-work-as-a-D1S-Replacement'...

Thanks for the help guys. Skooter - I'm interested. How do we do this? Bungie - So, who won??

Is the bulb a D1R or D1S? I had a deer suicide on me and the bulb got broken(I am stupid lucky!). Housing is OK. Thanks in advance, -Scott

Self-repairing plastic. And, I'd like to be 25 again.....

The cause is obvious. He was running CAR TIRES!!!!

FWIW it was "Frog Chokin'" from Cleveland to just south of Detroit. I went down to watch the start. Then lost my key..... WC - "Yes, we have it." Me - "Do I owe you pushups? Flutterkicks??" WC - "Lisa has it." Me - ..........

'98 Honda VTR1000. I like that it is light, narrow, and makes that V(L?)-Twin sound. I can take out my Tinkering urges on it, and not goof up the FJR in the process, and it's just fun for those mornings when the wife is working and I just want to go tearassing around and make some noise. I put...

Sticky! I used this thread before going Wilbers, and it is still a great reference. Once again, thanks Jeff!

Try to get parts for a '99!

Care-ik-turrrrr. I'm no IBR guy or even a rally competitor. But I DO know that after 10-15-20 plus hours in the saddle, and my ass aches, and the wind is trying to blow me off the side of the road or a mountain, I still reach forward, pat the gas tank, and say, "Nice Bike". I trust my Feejer...

Parts choices are pretty much limited to Yamaha and ebay. Or just replace the Yam case with a Givi. I ran the Yam case for 8 years, and always felt some instability with it at speed(I always have bags mounted). I got T-boned by a deer last month, and had to replace the topcase and mount, so I...

Too good to pass up! PM Sent.

Gas. The more you ride it, the more "Gee, wouldn't THIS be a great idea!" type-stuff you'll come up with. Especially if you hang around this lot....

Congrats Grady!

Last week I was riding home from Nevada, and I got T-boned by a deer. It lost. FJR-1, deer-0. Anyways, bent one of my PHIDs, cracked a couple of fairing pieces, Bambi hit me in the left leg(thank you Roadcrafter), and took off the factory(Yamaha) trunk. So... I've spent 8 years feeling that...
