    2006 FJR Texas Fuel Average (through 2300)

    4760 miles round trip to WFO 5 on the AE and used 100 gallons. Strickly stock, no mods. Much of the trip out west was at higher elevations. Texas highway driving yields 45-48 mostly. Bike now has 6100 miles. I do ride with the windshield down and a slightly leaned forward riding position. Out...

    New Poll for AE delivery dat

    Picked mine up 6 July from D&H Cycle. Great folks there. I can see why they have so many satisfied customers. Bike ran flawlessly on the 770 mile trip home. Put my AE in the zero defects column. (The operator has a few though.) Stopped in Texarkana and had Tony's guys do the 600 mile service...

    06 Mirriors

    Page 2-63 of the '06 Service Manual has an illustration of the mirror mounting brackets. In the lower illustration on that page they are angled out at about a 45 degree angle. Would it be possible to add additional bracing to the brackets to reduce vibration at that point? Where's Fred, our...

    Marcos--- I am sorry to hear about your wife's mishap but am glad to hear she is OK. Gravel surely is one of motorcyclist's big nemesis. [ My dog distracted me in the middle of my message sending. LOL]

    Replace OEM Grips?

    Shane---I have the new '06 Service Manual. Their pictures and descriptions of the grip heating system seems to indicate that the grips just slide on. They do show removing the grips using compressed air. I do intend to replace the grips with a more comfortable type and install a...
