    I'm a dumb sh**

    I think screwing in the broken plug cap is going to work- it feels pretty well connected. Later this afternoon, I'll button things back up and synch my injectors. I'll know for sure then. Keep your fingers crossed!

    SkooterG: I'll take one. I'll send you a PM shortly. I'm going to try and make this one work, but I can see I need a spare or two. Thanks everyone for the advice.

    I might not have made the situation clear......The spark plug tube is fine, the cap is broken off from both the spark plug wire and the spark plug tube. Can I reattach the spark plug wire to the cap and make it functional. It's still not clear to me. I'm an idiot :rolleyes:

    Yes, I tore the top of the cap. You're saying that as long as the cap tube is attached to the plug that it is still functional?

    Guys- How hard is it to change out a spark plug wire? Do I have to take all the bodywork off? Yes, I was changing my spark plugs and I tore the spark plug boot? Does anyone have a spare laying around? Thanks, greg :angry2:

    FJR / BMW Indecision

    I had a 2000 BMW RT1100, which I traded in for my first 03 FJR. It surged, didn't shift all that well, and the seat was a torture rack. I really liked BMW saddlebags better, and it was much more comfortable to me (I'm a freak of nature, 6'5" with a long torso. Loved my 03 FJR, then bought...

    SkooterG and his Papa Chuy drank gallons of Kool-Aid.

    How easy is it going to be to service these bikes? Oil change, air filter, etc.

    Lost my Mother

    So sorry to hear of your loss. My dad died in October 2009, and went fast, which, in retrospect, was a good thing. He had spinal meningitis, which went in to his brain and became encephalitis. If he had lived, he would have had severely diminished mental capacity, which he wouldn't have...

    Don: If they'll let me, I'll ride it, but it is scheduled to be in the 20's all next week, so they might think I'm crazy! (they might be right!). Greg

    Odd question - is there a way to heat your topbox?

    I have a pair of battery powered gloves I bought for skiiing, which I think would work very well. Made by Gerbing I think. If you get the XL, then wrap the put the clarinet inside the two gloves combined, I think it would be long enough.....I just measured the inside from end to where the...
