    Sena SMH10(R) vs. Scala G9

    I have a barely used set of Collette's if anyone wants something cheap! Two Model 9's if I recall/ Has both the big and small batteries for each unit, charges etc. Moving to Reno to make me a reasonable offer and they're yours.

    Sena SMH10(R) vs. Scala G9

    FYI: Battery lasts all day, and range is limited to site (sort of) but it can be 1-2 miles depending on where you are. We use these extensively in group rides to warn of road hazards, up coming turns, cagers on cells, etc. It's become part of the protective gear we use when we ride. Both...

    Sena SMH10(R) vs. Scala G9

    I've been using the G4 for just over 2 years. It replaced a parade of Autocom units and I have to admit I do not miss the scratchy sounds coming from the poor wired connections of the autocom. All this technology is vastly improved over the past few years. I love my latest G4 as it finally...

    End of the road for my FJR

    Glad to hear you're ok as well. I crashed my 05 2 weeks ago, kids on cell phones, abrupt stop and I discovered the ABS doesn't work so well in a hidden man hole cover! Four broken ribs and collar bone. AGATT as well so I'm ok like you. Just sucks to know it can happen so quickly when you...

    Single Best Farkle Ever - what have you added that you rate as #1?

    GP Suspension forks and Penske Rear. Simply make me a better rider. More confident, the thing is now on rails and I know what it's going to do going into a corner. Extremely precise steering and body control. This is my first major suspension improvement on any bike. Now all my bikes will...

    WTB - GEN1 Right side saddlebag

    I've got an 05 and tipped over at about 2MPH in a freak snow storm last October on 88 in the Sierra's. Bag mechanism I think is perfect. Put my boot through the front outer shell. Might be just what you need. It's my west coast bike, so these things have gone on and off the bike maybe 25...

    Gen I Ignition Switch Removal Suggestions

    I've stripped the FJR down to send all the suspension to GP Suspension in OR. About 18 months ago I broke a key off in the ignition. The bike still works, but its time to look at getting that key out of the ignition lock. I've poured over the manuals and this list today. I don't see any...

    Planning a long ride with the wife and need your help...

    You live in CA...s you can always leave early, ride to Sacramento and have her fly into there. You ca probably get a cheap SWA flight and skip the heat and 400 miles of the ride. Just a thought. Great riding throughout the whole area you are looking at. Enjoy

    FJR Rain Cover

    I use the Yamaha cover. It might not be the smallest, but the quality and versatility are tough to beat. It covers the entire bike with and without the bags on. Well worth the investment

    HyperPro Shocks & Springs

    Got an e-mail fro Kraus today asking me to have the webmaster request another FJR buy for the shocks. Kraus used to do the deals on Wilbers, now he has HyperPro's. 05 has 24 on her and I need new progressive springs and the 3D shock in the rear (461) If we don;t ask, Kraus said he would set...
