Gotta have two turn signal buttons for these to work. Self-Canceling Turn Signal Module Designed for bikes with two turn signal buttons.. Gary's velcro idea - genius!

John, I want to thank you for sharing your Dads' story on the forum. This might sound funny, but I felt proud to "know" your Pop through this forum. The good life I have in this great country is a direct result of the actions and sacrifices made by the people like your Dad that make up the...

The reason you don't notice the linked brake system on your Gen1 is because it doesn't exist. Only Gen2 +.

The Moto-D is sold as a set of 2.

The total amperage for the entire FZ1 should not exceed 30a. The relay in the FZ1 is a 30a relay. Each circuit is good for 10a, not to exceed 30a total. Each of your horns draw almost double the max current rating for a single FZ1 circuit at 12 volts. If you're running anything else off the FZ1...

+1 million I work for a medium sized municipality transportation dept and am in traffic all day. My view from the passenger seat of a bucket truck shows, among other things , a large percentage of folks out there are busy with their electronic devices including the infotainment systems in the...

I have two Honda 2000is gennies for camping and powering the house. My reason for buying two small gennies was weight. I can pick up 46 lbs at a time much easier than the weight of a 3500w Honda at ~ 140lbs.

Damn Joe, that's rough. I hope you can get some relief. I had to be hauled off in an ambulance due to severe sciatic nerve pain once. Suffered with it for many years. I don't care if I never take another Percocet as long as I live. The solution for me finally was changing jobs to one that didn't...

I too am proud of my Irish heritage. Chief Blueman is a loose Celtic translation of my name. The Gorman coat of arms motto is "First and last in war". Blue men were the fiercest of warriors! That said, how do I get my mates to quit calling me Poppa Smurf?

When I saw the thread title I thought you were up to some kinda BS shenanigans. Clicked on and my heart sank. Awwww ****! I was and still am excited for you getting a spankin' new '15. I'm anticipating some great ride reports with you and your Pop both mounted on FJRs. What a crappy bump in the...

I never saw a double barrel light saber like that in the Star Wars movies I watched.

Awesome post, Twigg. Nice to see a '78 XS 750 std put to good use. I bought one new, it was considered the bees knees then. You sir, appear to be a master lemonade maker. When I feel the lust growing for a new '14 or '15 I go ride my Gen1. I always come back with a grin. It's easier to be happy...

Time for you youngsters to get a room, cue up some Beiber and make some memories, begorrah!

Stevie, "God", Dave Mason, Traffic. This thread put a big ol' smile on my face. Thanks! 'Skibum, I saw Dave Mason at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle ca '73. His version of All along the Watchtower was f***ing amazing, a performance I'll never forget.

NW Snowman, dimmer winner! PM'd

I've got a rotary dimmer switch from Justin @LED Rider I'd like to offer up. Never used, NIB condition. You pay shipping, should be $5 or so. Would like if you have something to offer up in the spirit of PIF.

Dang it, Iris! Sorry about the damage to your new baby. I'd replace it and send the broken piece to Garauld for repair. Keep the repaired unit in case another biff occurs or have on hand for the next forum pal that may need it. Start a broken subframe pay it forward .

I'm thinking Traxxion Dynamics Omni spring kit with guides and fork oil change. T-D will discuss your riding habits and weight, etc and recommend the spring rate and which oil to use. I'd guess 1.05+ fork spring for you based on what I used. I'm 235 in gear. I've heard just springs and oil can...

Alex, if you're going to spend the dough on suspension I'd recommend talking to a vendor that knows FJRs specifically. Traxxion Dynamics and GP Suspension come to mind. Lee Spitler at T-D is very knowledgeable about these bikes and provided me with some of the best customer service I've ever...

Yep, I also took a 25 year sabbatical from riding,both dirt and street. Jumped back in at 52 with a WR450 ,urged on by my brother. Let me ride his WR400 one day and told me "you still got it". I quickly learned how to uncork the big Yammie with mods and turned it into a 50rwhp monster. Lots o'...
