    Cold Starting

    Amen to getting what you pay for. I'm one of toughs guys that finds out the hard way, Just because it is the same size battery as what is in it don't mean its the right one for the bike you have. It takes a lot of amps to turn that big ass FJR engine. lol

    Cold Starting

    Thanks for the advice, I'll have it checked out It might time for a new one. I had her on the Battery Tender and at 28 F she fired right up and it is charging at 13.1 or better.

    Cold Starting

    When it is cold my 05 sometimes doesn't have enough amps to turn the motor over. I do keep it on the Battery Tender in the winter months to help but that doesn't always work. Is there a battery that's got more amps that anyone has tried? In the summer it spins the motor fine and the only time I...

    SOLD

    What part of Tennessee do you live in? I'm looking to get my 03 going and need several things.
  11. harpo

    OUCH.

    Start with the easy stuff. Loose the fruit of the looms and get a pair of LD comfort shorts or a pair of seamless moister wicking sports underwear. Get pants that don't have pockets or seams that you would be sitting on. That is a start but until you get a seat that fits you, there is a limit to...

The plugs were standard OEM plugs and the idle is at...

    rough idle

    Thanks for the advice, let me answer some questions. I ride a lot and use Chevron gas most all the time, I have used Startron and Stibil in the past but not lately. The tank was emptied and fresh gas was put in, and the rough idle and hesitation started before the tune up, OH and the hesitation...

    rough idle

    Put my 05 in for a tune up, throttle bodies sync and new plugs were done. They found a rusty murky layer of gas at the bottom of the tank. I have tried gas treatments to take Ethanol out of the gas, they think that was the cause of the rusty colored gas. I started noticing the bike picked up a...

    Oxford Heated grip controller mounting.

    +1 on the 3M double sided tape. It works good and if you won't it off, you can peel it off pretty easy.
