    Whew! Made It.

    Might have been me if you're talking about Monday just west of Liberty Bell. '03 Silver and I was wearing a Yellow/Black jacket. I wasn't getting the ticket though. The guy that I was riding with was trying to catch up and got nabbed. ;) edit: Maybe the description wasn't needed. Only...

    WTB First Gen Center Stand (found)

    Thanks for the tip but mine was tweaked out of alignment even before it got bent. I won't be trusting it on my bike again. I think I've seen them new for about $150 as well. Considering the hourly rate the local welder charges I'm pretty sure I would at least be closing in on that just to...

    Mine was bent and cracked. Can't seem to find any on ebay so far.

    High Mileage Failures ?

    Over 300,000 miles on FJRs and 15 posts? I wouldn't say he "likes" computers, the internet and motorcycle forums.

    Stuff

    Interested in the "Semi Complete" throttle body/injector assembly. Edit: Going to pass. Thanks to Rad for replying to my PM so quickly.

    Saddlemen Tech Style Gel Seat

    By all means, do your research, ask questions and then... go buy a Russell. It looks like ass for a reason.

    Something else to loctite...

    How many times are we going to hear about people getting rid of the "crappy plastic" bolts on the windshield? Why stop at replacing the screws with stainless? Just have a piece of sheet metal cut to replace the windshield. Maybe even serrate it to look cool. Also, might want to opt for that...

    Revzilla Customer Service

    Regardless, if the condition of an item wouldn't be acceptable to you as a new item and it isn't actually defective (ie, the seller can return it to the manufacturer for a refund or replacement) you'll be hard pressed to find any retailer that will accept it as a return.

    Revzilla Customer Service

    So you knew the helmet didn't fit correctly but thought you would try modifying it and then, when that didn't work, tried to return it? Oh yeah, horrible service on their part. :huh: :lol:

    Seller's confusing statement

    Next month it will have been a decade. Time flies and so does my FJR.

    Starter motor - preventative replacement

    Did this just become an oil thread? Oooh, I've got some new "facts" I might want to share.

    FS/FT: 2009 FJR1300

    10k miles? He might not have even had to wash it yet.

    Plugged tire

    I didn't have any luck with the sticky strings personally (been told I'm pretty much a moron because of that) but I used a Stop 'N Go plug when I had a puncture on my nearly new tire and have had no trouble whatsoever. It's just about worn out now so I'll finally have an uncompromised tire...

    F/S 2007 FJR1300A Indianapolis

    Sounds like someone's friends convinced him he should be riding a HD. ;)

    2012 first impression

    Oooh, blue stripes. I like that idea. Might have to look into those.

    Anyone in Seattle WA?

    Did a very similar ride with my dad in '04. We lived near Auburn, CA at the time. Going To The Sun Rd is a beautiful. As well as Banff and Lake Louise. We went west on Hwy 1 instead of north on Hwy 93 like you're planning so we didn't go nearly as far north. What month are you planning? We...

    Fuel Injector Service

    Would you mind posting a scan of the report they send you? I also wonder if they have any recommendations for maintaining the injectors.

    Auxiliary Cell Design

    The GenII guys are just a bunch of posers anyhow.

    Sometimes a Ticker doesn't Tick

    Wow, this place has always been a little weird. 7 pages worth of posts with about 1 page of useful information. If you call a guy an egocentric idiot enough times because he had the gall to question your friend's motivation I would imagine you'll get the same response every time. At least no...

    Lane Sharing in Oregon

    The only people that even talk about doing anything like that are cagers who live in states where it isn't legal. It's just people trying to justify their fear of lane sharing because they don't know how to do it properly. IMHO, it will be outlawed in CA before it becomes legal in any other...
