Hi, Tried the setup with the rear set to soft,it does not seem to make a lot of differance,the bike still handles better IMOP. This setup was worked out by other members of the forum,I just put it into practice and gave my own veiws on it. Glad it suits you and your style of riding.

Hi, After doing 5000klms on the standard suspension settings I decided to make a few changes to the set up. Followed a lot of threads on the forum and decided on the following changes. Front preload 2rings showing. Front rebound 6 clicks from full hard. Front compression 8 clicks from...

Hi Steve, Sorry cant make that run next Sunday,I am commited to a regular run,that we do every Sunday,usually about 6 of us. Went out today and did 290 klms to try out a few adjustments on the bike and to try the new REMUS mufflers I fitted yesterday. If you want to see the Genmars send me an...

Hi, You are correct in the 1,2,3 above,fitting the risers has given me a good view of my hands when looking at the mirrors to see whats behind me. I think the only option is to remove the risers and go back to the original position, which is a shame,because the risers do a good job comfort...

Hi, Two weeks ago I fitted GenMar rises, and after two 300klm rides found them great with regard to the position of the handlebars . They have improved the riding comfort greatly. The problem is that raising the handlebar height has put the image of my gloves and barends onto the...

Thanks for that.

Saw a story on this site some months ago about the Porche salesman who was giving another Porche free for every one he sold,which turned out tob be a disaster for his company. Has anyone a copy of this story ,I have used the search to no avail,cannot find it. Thanks.

Hi. Received my GenMar rises today for my 07. Fitted them in under one hour( very easy and good printed instructions), Rode the bike about 30 klms and found much less pressure on the hands. Will be doing a long ride on Sunday so should get a good idea then.

65 last November and can agree with all of the comments,after various back operations and a bilateral hip replacement i find that keeping moving is the best option,a 300 + ride does wonders for the stiffness.

Hi , I want to replace the standard handlebar grips on my 07. This bike has as standard,heated grips,am Iright in thinking that the heater elements are inside the bars,and I would not damage anything by removing the grips in the normal way. I did a search on this sobject but could not find...

Hi Steve, The FJR is the new red colour for 07. I bought it from 5 star Yamaha,the only Yamaha dealer I have used for my last12 bikes, in recent years. I saw the blue demo yesterday,looks ok. The stone chips are to the LH mirror and a couple on the fairing, your correct its the crap on the...
