    EOM '10

    I attended EOM for the first time this year and had a good time. Due to my job I have to submit my vacation request by the end of this month for calender year 2010. Is EOM traditionally held on the 3rd weekend of September? Any idea from the organizers what the 2010 date might tentatively be...

    Jammed Up Behind a Tractor

    Nice job. Trent Reznor in the background if I'm not mistaken. Tune has a nice edge to it...... Paul

    Home safe

    Arrived home safe and sound to Canada last night at 8pm. Left at 0600hrs and had been planning on taking I75 back but a quick look at the radar Sunday morning nixed that idea. Took I77 and came across Jay(?) heading home to Ohio. Thankfully the rain was short lived for my 1300km trek. Many...

    Texting while driving?

    I've always thought some of the Aussie and Brit commercials would make great viewing here in the north. This one is well done, I think......

    Southern Ontario to EOM (Johnson City)

    hello... though I'm new to the board (and the FJR) I'm strongly considering attending the EOM in Johnson City in September. It all depends on getting the time off at work (where I am right now at 0045hrs :glare: ) I'll be leaving from the London, On area and am wondering which routes others...

    SW Motech Engage Tank Bag Install-The bag

    Craig, thanx for that detailed write-up. I've been debating on purchasing this tankbag for the last six months. I saw the Engage tankbag at the Toronto Motorcycle show and had the sales rep. bring it over to the Yamaha display so I could see it on the FJR. Thought it was a great mounting idea...

    Photo's of how to get under the Tank

    Awesome write-up and very helpful. My Carbtune Pro arrived from the UK Thursday and I set to work. Got the sparkplugs changed out and did the TBS. Besides "hearing" the difference I could "smell" the difference in the exhaust. thanx again, Paul

    Just to be safe

    Blasphemour! Gravy with your fries is a delicacy. :D Gravy with cheese curds (poutine) is 'haute cuisine.' For many a Canadian high-school student fries and gravy is a food-group. Just sayin' Paul

    Today I left the BMW club and joined the FJR Club....

    Dean, I'm new here as well and also migrated from a BMW. Very happy with my choice and the help from the forum here has been great. As far as mods I installed a dual heat-troller in the location where the factory heated grips controller usually goes. I have the factory top case and passenger...

    Headlight Modulators

    Steve, To tell you the truth I hadn't seen a headlight modulator in this part of the province until last year! I've seen one this spring on an old 'wing but they just don't seem to be that common up here. I have to say it was a bit distracting to look at as well. Both encounters were on...

    I'm an electrical idiot

    I think I actually "get that." I'm usually pretty logical when it comes to troubleshooting other things. I think its the excitement that the weather is actually going to be over 0 C and that I may get to go for a ride. Definitely suffering from riding related PTSD. thanx, Paul

    FJRF003.1: Ignition Switch

    My dealer came and picked up my bike Thursday here at the house. I stopped in later that day at the dealership and was talking to the owner. When I inquired as to the original key being retained he explained to me how the tumblers would be changed and that no new key would be issued. This was in...
