    Wanted: Gen II CB or CalSci Windshield

    Hamie, I have an XL Cal Sci I just took of my Gen II bike (put the stock WS back on). Any interest in a trade. Weekender. PS: I tried to send you a PM but not sure it went through.

    Anyone tried to travel West from the 101 on Mulholland Dr to see if you can get all the way across to Topanga Canyon?

    Cross Country Trip

    Hi all, I'm beginning the very early stages of planning for a cross country trip on my trusty FJR. As an avid reader of Rider Magazine I have a lot of great ideas of local routes - here and there - across the US but I'd thought I'd see if anyone on this forum has any thoughts on best routes...

    VStream Report

    Larry, What speeds have you ridden at and experienced the "dead silence"? I'm same height / inseam and currently have a Cal Si (extra tall) which works fine up to about 75mph. But at that point I still get noise / buffeting and back pressure slowly building as the speed goes up. Makes it...

    Help me hook up my cell phone to Autocom Super Pro

    If Autocom was a dead end for a cable, I heard that they have a less expensive Bluetooth module. Aux 1 can power the blue tooth module (reason given for a less expensive module) so that is the port you would use (it also will not mute when you speak). I have a question into autocom about a...

    All Electronics Are Dead

    Try... Disconnect the Battery again. Go back to each of the connectors you disconnected and double check they seated property and/or that no pins are pushed back - thus not allowing for a good electrical connection. Focus on what you touched before the problem occurred. Good luck!!! Weekender

    Autocom AVI Pro Install - Cell Phone interference

    I'm using a Blackberry 8700. I'm not powering the unit off the bike, it is running on battery. The interference is present connected or not depending on proximity to the headset or com box. However, the main issue is when it is connected. I have tested it and it works as it should when...

    Autocom AVI Pro Install - Cell Phone interference

    Greetings, I received my autocom AVI pro system with great joy and anticipation about 4 weeks ago :yahoo: . Checked it out just and the manual suggested and did the final install onto the bike this weekend. However, I have one very annoying issue that I've not been able to resolve and...

    High RPM stumble

    OK guys, finally had time to take a close look at this situation. The good news is that I seem to have found the source of the problem :D Seems my wonderful local Yamaha dealer service technicians (I use that term loosely) kinked my fuel line when they were under the tank some time ago...

    High RPM stumble

    Early On, it was more intermittent. However, it seems to be consistent now. Since it takes such a hard acceleration run, I cannot say it does it every time I run the bike. All I can say is that it has done it every time I've tried to duplicate it recently. I did do the infamous "barbarian...

    High RPM stumble

    I'm riding an A model (Cal Spec). I took it out today and confirmed the condition several times. I get it in 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Then I'm going to fast to worry about the problem at that point. I'm at 3/4 to full throttle and once I hit the wall it does not make any difference if I whack the...

    High RPM stumble

    I’ve noticed that my bike will “fall on its face” or stumble at high rpm during hard acceleration. The first few times this happened, I assumed that I had hit fuel cut at Red line. However, when I actually tried to repeat the issue while looking at the Tachometer, the stumble was occurring at...

    Barbarian Mod on 06 FJR

    The only reason I would do this is as insurance against my dealer claiming I've voided the warranty. I work in the wholesale car industry for a major manufacturer. I can guarantee that if we found a customer had made this kind of modification to one of our vehicles, they would get little...

    Barbarian Mod on 06 FJR

    Ok, So I followed the procedure carefully and was successful in getting the pin out of the connector and moved to pin 25. Wasn’t all that hard really. I used a small Allen wrench that just fit into an open connect hole and it pushed the pin and the plug out without any effort at all. I tried...

    1st gear surging between 20 and 25 mph

    One more bit in info to add to this discussion. The surge on my bike had gotten much worse after I did the 600 mile service. Rather, after my dealer did the 600 miles service. He had reported that he had sync'd the TBs and that the bike ran good now. Well, that is not how it really was...

    1st gear surging between 20 and 25 mph

    I've am experiancing the same lean surge at light throttle that you guys are on my 06. I talked to the Power Commander people today and found out that they don't have one for the 06 yet and don't have an eta. The guy said because it is special order, they had not gotten ahold of one to play...

    Instantaneous Fuel Consumption Mode Wrong

    Nice Theory but this does not explain why the reading is either 17 or zero. If the computer is just using the wrong base numbers, then you should still see fluctuation in the readout. On my bike there is no such fluctuation taking place. It seems to act more like it is not getting the...

    Instantaneous Fuel Consumption Mode Wrong

    I just picked up my FJR from the dealer after its 300 mile safety check. I reported the issue with the instantaneous MPG readout. They checked out the IP and test drove the thing to confirm the problem. Bottom line is they don't know what is wrong with it. Yamaha told them that they had a...

    06 FJR - instantaneous MPG Problems

    Greetings all. I’m new to this board and a 4 day old FJR owner. Took my mike on a nice 200mile drive yesterday :D and determined that the instantaneous mpg reading was not functioning properly; seems to be stuck at 17mpg. :( Has any of the other 06 FJR owners experience this? I’ve...
