I was riding with 3 FL Harleys and a BMW tourer..Being that we accelerated gradually up to cruising speed of 70-85 and the wind was generally in the direction we were traveling, my overall average going down was..52.3mpg. Coming back was about 46mpg.

It has eliminated all these symptoms on mine...Just did 1200 miles to Biketoberfest and back..Bike performed perfectly, weather sucked on the ride. Lowest mpg was 40 highest was near 60!!

"Also, my bike has the conical ring but no flat ring." Strike that..Flat ring is there...Post clutch soak shows no hang-ups..Me, on the other hand....

One point regarding the steel discs. They are die cut and have a sharp side and a rounded side. My clutch was installed with the sharp sides facing out. Always re-install the plates all facing the same direction.

It's always nice when a single post affirms and answers my questions..Thanks!!!

Each .10 improvement in 60' time will get you about 2/10's better e.t.

My 07' clutch is hanging up when I pull in the lever to shift and also when clutch is pulled in coming to a stop. It seems to be worst when the oil is cold and not as bad when hot. Is this a common problem on these bikes?

I have the big old Motion Pro mercury sticks. I'm thinking of going with a CarbTune so My mercury setup might be on the block if anyone is interested.

Good post..Although I have an 07' 1300A, I shift my other bikes without the clutch at times and the key to smooth shifts are a quick roll-off and shift when acceleration is tapering for the amount of throttle you are using. In other words, don't shift while still under a heavy or even moderate...

I have a 36" inseam and as you might think, no problem flat footing my FJR. My problem was that most bikes don't have sufficient seat to peg room for me. The FJR seems really comfy so far....I would recommend researching all of the options you have to help this bike fit you.

Enjoy! I'm loving my 07 so far at 105 miles.

I got what might have been the last 07' on Long Island. Traded my red 06 Warrior and got out the door for $4500 Not too bad considering the Warrior was in need of tires. I'll post some pics soon :yahoo:

Sounds like approx 2mph more in the 1/4 mile.
