    What did you ride pre-FJR

    Too many to list or remember but my last is my FJR's current stable mate for those around town/water hole hopin' days...122RWTQ can be fun! Now my 300+ mile days are a tad more comfortable... :exhappysmiley:

    2007 Review

    Awsome write up Jeff...glad your enjoying the new ride! I could relate to everything you felt and experienced on the new bike. Glad to see the '07 fixed the "dead" spot the '06's had. Looks like the PCIII won't be needed for new kids on the block...So far with just over 1200mi on the clock I...

    The FJR as a sportbike

    I know opinions are like a**holes but...Dan I think most of us here understand what your saying about the "Sport" in the FJR...some of us just don't fully agree...yes the same rider, same day, same conditions, same roads could possibly out perform the FJR with a "Sportier" ST Bike...is that a...

    The FJR as a sportbike

    Ditto...99% of the time the "rider" will be the determining factor of any bikes limitations, postive or negative...Quick example...I was absolutely blown away from a good friend (Father owned a Honda Dealership/my buddy raced bikes for 25+years) that took my ole' modified (engine only) '78...

    The FJR as a sportbike

    There's nothing more I or anyone else can say about this great multi-tasker...it is what it is...and it "is" a blast no matter what you ask it to do...

    Talk me out of (or into) this.

    Or keep the modded to the max Warrior, trade/sell the Rodie for the FJR so you can ride 2 up with the wifey, have a comfortable "sport" bike when your solo and still have a cool ass cruiser...CBR and FJR are closer cousin's than say your Warrior and FJR. JMHO...okay I'm a little biased...see sig

    The ST market and the FJR

    Say it ain't so Frisco...Been riding for a little over 36 years, 27 on the street...With so many different bikes over the years can honestly say I wish I had a bike for each day of the week...I think we all can attest to that. Different bikes for different wants/needs for different days. I...

    "Abrupt off/on Throttle Reaction" Rider magazine

    Sorry Rod about the pics I was wanting to take for you. I have 2 digital cameras. One is at my office being used for a job and the other I don't know where in the hell its at...looks like you got it all taken care of anyway. Good to hear about the block. I may just go ahead and install it to...

    "Abrupt off/on Throttle Reaction" Rider magazine

    No I hadn't and never planned to. I'm with Warchild on this as far as blindly adjusting the CO settings. I just didn't feel comfortable doing it without the benifit of seeing "exactly" what was going on with the A/F ratio and doing the BJM you have that fuel delivery across the board in areas...

    Another PCIII Love Story

    No nothing else...stock exhaust, filter, etc...Probably the #1 mod needed for the '06 FJR's to make it a better over all package. Personally I don't see a need for any throttle fix, ie. spring release, cable slack, shim mod, G2 mod or anything else after the PCIII install. Yes its that good...

    Another PCIII Love Story

    Finally did my first mod...With 950mi on the clock figured it was time. My friendly neighborhood UPS man showed up today with a special delivery...PCIII for the '06. Took about 1 1/2 hrs start to finish. Super easy install pretty much plug-n-play...With the supplied "stock" map from Dynojet...

    "Abrupt off/on Throttle Reaction" Rider magazine

    I'll get some pics up for ya as soon as I can...only thing I see you'll need to fit the FJR is a 1/2" (I'll check to make sure) spacer and longer bolt for the end bar. Like I mentioned earlier the brake lever assembly can be moved slightly. Yes please send me the things on the list from...

    Another PCIII Love Story

    Ditto...can you or anyone else point out which wire from the ECU is the ground?? Would this be considered the digital ground by chance? If so I would think this would be a better ground rather than running a long ground wire to the battery...

    "Abrupt off/on Throttle Reaction" Rider magazine

    What was weird about the whole installation instructions was the only thing that was mentioned about the FJR specific install was having to remove the grip and use the end bar spacer and longer bolt. I had one extra bag left with a small "spacer" block and longer bolt. The instructions...

    "Abrupt off/on Throttle Reaction" Rider magazine

    Good to hear Rod...it only gets better! It is a cool bike for sure...I'll be installing the PCIII sometime next week. I'll let ya know if it helps calm some of the "hit" off idle and will hopefully pick up the mid-range (lean) area for better HP/TQ under the curve...Not sure how good the stock...
