    FJRForum Official 2021 Iron Butt Rally Tracking/Analysis Thread

    That seems likely.  On the rider scorecards, the bonus code is KODAK but the description says Houston House.

    FJRForum Official 2015 Iron Butt Rally Tracking/Analysis thread

    My 2009 FJR was starting to get to a point that I no longer trusted it after riding the BigTex rally last year. During that event, power was cutting out and in at times and I was unable to make it happen on a regular enough basis to want to take a chance on it for the IBR. So...I bought...

    Brake/clutch reservoir switch.

    Bill, Not reservoir mounted, but I'm in the process of installing these to control my aux. lights: Switches are both on/off but they (Highway Dirt Bikes) offer momentary options too. They don't sit perfectly straight on the Clutch side due to the bolts on the clutch reservoir being offset...

    Rally Schedules

    The Iron Butt Association has an event calendar that lists several events: https://www.ironbutt.com/eventcal/ If you're looking for a rally in Texas, I can't recommend the BigTex Rally enough, Wayne puts on a great event and a benefit of the 36-hour rally is that you get a month to plan. See...

    Sena 20s Day

    Interesting information. I've tried unsuccessfully to get the audio multitasking to work. I'm using my iPhone paired as a mobile phone (both HFP and A2DP) along with a SENA SR10 paired as a 2nd mobile phone (Should be HFP only) that I have a Zumo and a Valentine 1 running into. I've tried...

    Something Happened On The Way To Dover

    Anthony, You were missed at the banquet. I was looking forward to meeting you in person. Steve kept us updated as riders dropped (without names) from the rally but it didn't even occur to me that one of them was you. If you make Pink's this year, your meal's on me. Best of luck to you with...

    What Is Your LD Plans for the Year?

    +1 I'd at least like to hear about your planning if you choose not to share the actual ride itself.

    What Is Your LD Plans for the Year?

    An email to the rallymaster has verified that you're correct. We have to declare our starting point prior to seeing the rally pack. He says that the points should be even so I need to decide if the extra day of vacation (and miss out on the pre-rally bbq) or two days (and attend the bbq) are...

    What Is Your LD Plans for the Year?

    I'll have to see the rally pack. My understanding was that we could always choose to start in SLC, so if there is some sort of very large advantage to starting there then I'll consider it. I originally planned to start in SLC because I enjoy the pre-event festivities but reconsidered when...

    2014 Team Lyle Silver State Roundup

    Harlem....errr....Nevada Shake. I just checked out the participants list. An interesting mix of bikes and a great list of people. :)

    Setting Up A 2013 FJR for LD Riding

    Shuey, Perhaps this is the switch mount that you used? https://www.highwaydirtbikes.com/HDB_Shop/index.php?app=ccp0&ns=prodshow&ref=BrakePerSw_2 I like what you've done with the bike and I'm stealing some of your ideas. -Erik

    My Impressions of the MV Motorrad Bar Riser

    I have. It still seems on the tight side.

    My Impressions of the MV Motorrad Bar Riser

    Does anyone else have an extremely tight throttle cable after installing the MV riser on a Gen II? Mine seems quite tight. Anything that anyone did to route the cable a little differentely?

    Help with my CCS100 Cruise Control

    Might be a stupid question, but are you certain that the check valve is allowing air to flow the correct direction? No/lack of vacuum is one potential cause for those symptoms.

    Helibars Group Buy for FJR Triple Clamp

    Any idea how many orders have been placed? I'm considering this one and hoping it will help with some pain I've been experiencing in my shoulder blades after long rides.

    2011 Utah 1088 (12 hour, 1 day, 3 day)

    I'll preface this with I have no first hand experience to draw on but I did stay at a holiday inn express last night. Having a SPOT seems like a good idea to me and if everyone has one then everyone starts with the same number of points so no advantage over anyone else. Watching the 10n10 was...
