    Tell me why an FJR please.....

    I think it will be hard to compare a 1994 bike to a 2010 bike, but the FJR is probably the best non-BMW compromise between high performance and touring out there. Smooth, fast, comfortable, roomy, great handling, great brakes, reliable, relatively inexepensive... What the FJR doesn't have is...

    Deer Season

    DCarver - God the front of that bike is a mess! Better it than you I suppose. Nice pic of the dead deer; Yamaha wins again! Bungie - Why can't we get the bears to eat the wood rats? Life just ain't fair... :angry:

    Cycle World August 09 article

    Heat Modification

    https://jfindustriesltd.com/SpeedZoneAhead/...tgastankfix.htm and https://www.fjrowners.ws/forum/messages/6/10176.html Or you could just do it yourself. Buy some heat shield insulation like I did and put it under the tank over the engine, and buy some foam, cut blocks out, wrap them in heat...

    Freakin' Short Arms

    Ok, all my family (except me) is built like apes with short upper bodies and long, hairy arms. I on the other hand, have a long hairy upper body, but short little flippers that barely reach the top of the tank on the FJR, much less the bars. Well, maybe that's an exaggeration, but still, after...

    Comm/CB/Signs of the Apocalyps

    OK, I know this topic has been beat to death in other posts and I know it's a sign of the apocalypse to ask it again :rolleyes: , but I am going to risk the wrath of the feejees because I think I have a different question than has been asked before! Question: What is the most *cost...
