    FJR Forum Decal design

    Start with this: https://www.the-blueprints.com/vectordrawings/show/16457/yamaha_fjr1300/ Then have an artist on Upwork or Five add the Yamaha logo and pick the color you want and do a rendering to make it look more real. Ditto to everyone who wants to lose the top box.

    Shorter than Stock windscreens

    I bought an extra stock shield and cut it to only 10" tall. Looks like a cafe racer shield. Easy to do and cost less than $100.

    WANTED - Smuggler by Corbin for 2006 FJR

    They are rare don't go for sale frequently. Expect to pay about $400 for a nice used one. You may have to wait several months to find your color. If you, buy it the first day it goes for sale. I've missed two in the last year trying to haggle.

    Seats... I've been thinking

    I paid $100 for a used gen 1 stock seat in excellent condition. Bought it here on the forum. I sent that one to Russell while I rode my Corbin.

    The Texas Mile in Goliad March 26

    I was there that day. I also saw a sweet 40s rat rod pickup do a few endos last spring. I also saw a naked Hayabusa hit 257. Then the same guy bested that time on a day when I was not there. Thankfully, no one has gotten seriously hurt. Yet.

    The Texas Mile in Goliad March 26

    I am riding to Goliad from Austin to spectate at The Texas Mile. This is a speed unlimited event for motorcycles and cars. I've run the event before, but this time will just enjoy the company of gear heads like me. I can guarantee a full bevy of modified super bikes and exotic super cars...

    FJR Sale Title Transfer etc. Questions

    This is by far the easiest. Then the seller knows that he's sold the bike to you. And he's got his money, so he's happy.

    Broken tab on plastic tank cover - help

    Plastic welding means melting the plastic back together again. I taught myself to do this with a soldering iron. I sometimes add some extra plastic from zip ties to add plastic bulk to the seam. The ABS plastic melts well and the seam becomes as strong as the original if you melt it...

    Russell Seat Advice

    I did the pillion. My wife doesn't give me grief about risking my life on a bike, so I think she deserves her own custom portion of the seat for those times when she let's me risk her life as well.

    Radar visual alert

    I have the speed cheetah vizalert. I also have the screamer. Neither are perfect. The visual alert can be missed in the day even though it's 2" from my eye in peripheral vision. That's because of the glare of bright sunlight on windshields and face shields. The screamer sometimes gets...

    Ear Cannon horn

    I put my horn (but not the compressor) in the same spot you did, roadrunner. I didn't check the clearance, and after a ride on a very bumpy road, the horn jumped off and into the bushes never to be seen again.
