    Heated grips

    I've seen some posts about the Oxford heated grips. I'm wonder is that a good choice or is there a better one. I remember reading the Oxford grips for adventure bikes was the ones to get.

    Man!! Big FJR's story is very close to mine.

    Hard clutch

    Thanks for the help. I found it odd that everything was fine till I put it all back together. I pumped the clutch lever several times after I got the bars bolted back with no issue with a stiff pull till I went to ride it and, that's when the clutch was so hard to pull. It disengages and engages...

    Hidden high mileage

    I bought my 05 in Febuary with 16000 easy miles and very well mantained, it still has the new smell ! I to noticed the shifter rubber is worn. It has to be just soft rubber and nothing more.

    Wind shield motor plug

    I liked being able to set the shield where I wanted it and it not move. When I want it higher or lower I can just run it up or down as needed. Thanks for the info.

    Wind shield motor plug

    Won’t just un plugging that plug with the wire loop stop the auto lowering and make the shield manually adjustable?

    Wind shield motor plug

    I was looking around behind the gauges and could'nt find the plug to keep the wind shield from lowering when the ignition is turned off. Is it like the one on the 03 and where is it?

    Accessoy shelf

    I'm wanting to put an accessory shelf on my 05 and i'm looking for a well made one that mounts sturdy. I had one on my 03 that came from Farkle Masters that was OK but shook with only my zumo mounted on it. Who make a good one?

    I guess I'm not that hardcore...

    Unless there is ice on the road I ride. That said I got a lightly used 05 last January and just haven't ridden it because we have had so much rain and snow lately and I hate to get it nasty till I half to. It is clean as a pin and has been very well cared for. Next week the weather is going to...

    Gen1 '05 to a gen2 '06? Worth it or not?

    I have a 03, and here in Alabama we know heat so I put some heat blocking foam material between the frame and side panels. This helped the heat blast coming back on me. I just got a lightly use 05 and plan to do the same with it.

    How many FJRs do you see on an average day?

    I hardly ever see a FJR in my area, it's a treat when one passes or I pass one.
