    Shifting Hard Shifting 2nd --> 1st

    Hi All, I got a 2006 FJR1300 w/ ~ 25K miles. For most of the life I've had it (since ~14K?) it seems to shift hard going from 2nd --> 1st. It only appears to happen above ~4,000 RPM, and yes, I am fully depressing the clutch. It's bad enough that I can see silver shavings when I do oil...

The one thing I can't get over is, I'd like for the garage door opener to be "off" while the bike is off.  Has anyone done this before?  There are two ways I can think of... 1)...

    Passenger Handgrips

    So I took my FJR out with my better half recently and she noticed that there was a lot of wind trying to force her "up".  She then expressed the following: she wanted something to hold onto (no, holding onto me isn't an option.. that hurts after 5 minutes).  Has anyone does anything like this...

    Gen II Front Fork Oil Seal Removal

    I'm trying to replace my fork seals (and bushing) on my '06 FJR1300A and I've run into a snag.  I've gotten the inner tube out using the "slam rod" method (forcing it out by hand, vs how the manual recommends it being used).  Now, the main oil seal won't come out.  I have the snap ring out, but...
