    SOLD - Free ear plugs 9/10/15 only Amazon prime

    Glad so many free (or nearly) items went to family! One other optional thing you could do to help out is take a few minutes and leave an honest review on the product page. Even a few reviews can really make/break a small operation. Feedback guidelines: (Please note the line 'Full Disclosure'...

    We lost a forum member

    Wow, only 3 years older than me... I've been very quiet on the forum the past 2-3 years after retiring from the Navy. Now a full-time stay at home Dad to two girls, turn 4 in Jan, 2 in Apr. I didn't know Greg but something like this really hits home! So hard to think about the possibility of...

    Phoenix to Las Vegas

    Just moved to Phoenix and planning a trip to Las Vegas in October. Not familiar with any routes Google maps tells me two options: US93 through Kingman - 5hrs, 24 min or I-10 / US95 through Parker? - 5hrs, 56 min Which one is more cage/family friendly? I figured someone in this group must...

    Riding my FJR when it's 107 outside

    I don't have a Coolvest but I believe mine is the same technology https://www.texascoolvest.com/ It works great for me, I used it quite often when I lived in San Diego and headed to areas in the range of 105-125F When stopping for gas every ~200 miles I would just soak the packs in ice for...

    glovebox disable

    If I recall correctly you can just disconnect the power to the solenoid. Power cable connects to the bottom of part 71 of picture below. In any condition that enables the glovebox to be locked the plunger (red arrow) is extended which pushes against piece 72 and extends the metal tab (top of...

    September Weekday Overnighter???

    22nd-24th work fine for me. But I don't think this route & required pace will work well with late<r> morning starts and more frequent stops. Day1 - Day2 - Day3 I'm open to adding an extra day/two or adjusting the route to better fit the trip. I'm guessing with stops for food, gas...

    I found room in the garage for a Vstrom

    It's a 2004. Thanks for the tips about the chain. I'll keep an eye on the temps when it is hotter but it seems to be running pretty smooth right now. Barely broken in... I almost have all of the parts for the brake upgrade, Galfer lines should be here next week.

    September Weekday Overnighter???

    I'm up for any routes (they all look good to me) Also open to camping both nights, not sure about federal parks but I know I can camp at any state park for free (and bring the park limit of guests with me) so your camping should be free too. Revised suggestions (Fjroamer) Day1 - Day2 -...

    Can the 320mm brakes/rotors bolt on to a 03 FJR?

    I'm with Kaitsdad, I think you would have to swap forks or manufacture new mounts/adapter brackets for the calipers. 320mm is the rotor diameter (~12.6 inches) 320mm vs 289mm is about 1.2 inches larger. IF the larger rotors have the same bolt pattern (which on my 05 Non ABS is ~6 inches...
