    Installing fz1 mirrors on fjr

    I got the gen 1 fz1 mirrors for my 06 fjr. Did a search for installation but could not find anything. Is it as simple as removing the black panels on each side, and is that simple? Any assistance would be appreciated.

    2006 fjr blue right rearview mirror wanted

    I ordered the fz1 mirrors, 50 bucks. they also had them for 19 from china, singapore and so on so hopefully these 50 dollar ones are decent quality. Should be here anyday. Thanks for the help guys. Then I will have a left mirror for sale and a damaged right one that I jd welded back together. lol

    v-strom hand guards on FJR

    I have been using the handguards for almost 4 years and use wire ties to hold the guards in place. In the summer I cut them off and then reinstall in the winter.

    I was also thinking of one since I have owned an fz6, fz1, and the wife has a fz6r and all have been rock solid but the fz8 really hasn't gotten good reviews when compared to other bikes in its class. I have recently been looking at the tiger 800 abs. I demo'd one and liked it alot and love...

    FJR to Super Tenere, regrets, pluses

The write ups I have read, the comparisions, have rated the s10 as a super slab bike but too heavy for off...
