I made it from NH to AL and had my new ECU installed today (took all of 19 minutes). The 5,000 mile test ride will commence soon... I'm heading to WArchild's! :clapping: AGirl This thread needs another photo!! :yes2:

What a difference a day makes.... I went from zero (ECU) options, to two. Don't want to double post, so details in #41: HERE. I will add the new ECU's part number that was given to me: 90891-30054-000 Let the mojo roll on this new ECU working! AGirl

What a difference a day makes... Posted above (#36) reply yesterday afternoon. Last night, as can be seen in post #453 (HERE), benevolent Warchild offers his assistance in obtaining and installing an ECU fix for my bike. While reading his offer to come to WA and solve the surge, I scare the...

WOOOOOO-HOOOOOO, you're on, Warchild! PM sent! Not only is the end near, but I've got a cool story to go with my "fix".... New Hampshire to WA via TN and AZ to get a bike fixed. :yahoo: Did I mention I kinda like this bike? I appreciate the positive feedback and support from everyone. Look...

If you don't have the surge issue with your bike I don't really understand where your all your emotion is coming from, Warchild, nor do I know what “advice” you are referring to in the link; nonetheless, you can believe the issue is with whoever you'd like in the IL case, and I'll believe it is...

I respectfully and adamantly disagree given my personal experience and facts. Post #36: HERE AGirl

I am posting this for the record and to let others who own an FJR or are considering an FJR know the facts regarding my personal experience involving the altitude issue of my 2007 FJR, especially since not a day goes by that I don't receive an email from someone asking about the bike, why I...

+1 for the Scotts... FWIW, I have one in every bike I own that it'll fit - they pay for themselves, plus I don't have to give up cargo space by carrying extra filters around or worry a/b where I'll be able to find one on the road (which is often in rural areas); you might have to be a high...

Thanks to bro TWN for the head's up... With over 25,000 miles on my 07 (including a 10 wk break riding a non-altitude surging bike), I am more than ready for the suffering & surging to subside. I'm currently on the road (in NH/VT area)... can ANY dealer do this ECU swap thing?? Do I choose one...

After resting for 11 weeks while I was off riding a different bike in Alaska, my FJR is rolling once again. I'm currently in the New England area. If there are any other leaf peepers out there, you might find interest in this particular Journey Report I just posted (sharing info creates good...

Ironically I was at D&H today, which is where I bought my FJR. I experienced the altitude sickness in APRIL (and reported specific details on the forum in this link: HERE) when I was going through New Mexico. I was heading to New England at the time but rerouted to AL just to get the bike back...

This Tennessean offers this link: Alaska Leather. FWIW, I use it w/the stock seat and have no issues doing extended miles for extended days. My general observation is that some of the aforementioned custom seats seemed to be preferred by those who, shall we say, bring their own padding to the...

FWIW, I just returned from a 2 month 15,000 mile jaunt to the Last Frontier State albeit not on an FJR. I took about 99 billion photos (or so it seemed) and they are posted, along w/my daily reports, right: HERE. I'm linking this so that you can perhaps get a better sense of the roads &...

As previously discussed: https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?s...489&hl=tank ... and as stated in post #21, Nelson-Rigg CL-350 for me. My all time favorite long distance tank bag. :) Best wishes for finding one that meets your needs. AGirl

FWIW, I never hit the road or trail without my Petzel Myo XP (headlamp)... never know when you need to use both hands! Great light, nice features, impressive battery life (uses 3 AA's), has held up to lots of use, very comfortable to wear. When I was in Alaska recently I met a climber with the...

Perhaps consider taking this Harley owner's approach that I recently personally witnessed?? :rolleyes: FWIW, I've never had ANY issues of theft while on the road (in about a bazillion miles). I don't carry a lock or glock (who knows, I might want to cross over into Canada), but I do choose...

Don't know if this will help you, but: AGirl

I haven't read this thread in it's entirety, but I am aware the IBR is in progress. My 07 is currently collecting dust in a garage in Nashville, TN and is available for emergency parts donorship for any fellow FJR during the rally. AGirl

Well, over 3 months have passed since my original posting and I was hoping this altitude issue would be resolved by the time I returned from AK (in the next few wks). Based on the very quick perusing of the board it doesn't appear this hope is a near a reality. :sadsmiley: For the record, I'm...

Oh good grief is right... I reported this 3 months ago in MAY (including the spirited pace thing!). Geez, where have you guys been?? https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?s...=20392&st=0 - (post #1 & #19). My 07 has 17k... and has been collecting dust for the last 9 weeks. AGirl
