    Tepesquet in 4 parts

    Richard, Straight wound or progressive? Seems cushy on the video, like it might want to dive on a hard front brake. And then again you have the ABS......I'd like to get that cod liver oil out of there and make my forks start to work again. What weight oil did you finally go with? WW's FJR

    Richard, Great video, top shelf....admiring your FJR's suspension smoothing over all those twisty imperfections, Stock or reworked? Seems nicely balanced. WW's FJR Larry

    Avila Beach 2010

    FJRBluesman, Lockwood Valley Rd. is a real treat to ride. Try adding in the Cerro Noroestre just north of it sometime. Check the weather before you head out there. We got a few black clouds and hail last time through. Feels like a GP M/C course in a few places. Los Pinos Mexican Resturant was...

    Beemerdons, I did locate a left and right mirror set for an '03. Thanks for checking for me. The search is still on now for the footpegs. Spent a lot of time on the internet yesterday nothing popping up just yet. I don't think I want to go with the billet machined pieces. A little wider might...

    Sorry Steve, My silvers ran together..... Tomorrow will be the look for cracks and busted whatevers. Did you say that you had a set of bar risers w/ set backs? If so hang onto them for me.....maybe I don't need a new bike just yet. WW'sFJR Larry

    Jill, Lots of paint work......I should be able to do that myself......the rest is simple. Paint match will be interesting but I think those guys over at Auto Color in Westminster can match it right up. Need to find a good deal on those foot pegs and mirrors first, Beach Yamaha......is such a...

    djbill, Went back to pick her up this morning to Newberry Springs. I'm surprised it wasn't in Bakersfield for the drive out there. I got off fair to painless as could be expected for the location and circumstances. Here's a pic or two of the ride back home. Probably will start to pull the...

    Thanks Joe, I feel fine. My wrists are a little sore from the grip I had on the bike. I stayed with it until the very end when I had to just let it go. I'm daam impressed with the way my riding pants and jacket held up to the slide. Thanks Alpinestars and First Gear. I'm pretty sure I got a...

    Simon, I should be distraught and bummed out but I'm not. I've had such an incredibly great time on that bike.....it's always been a thrill every time I fired it up. Wife already said I could buy another one. So, we'll see. Thanks for riding up with me today, hope the fish and chips were...

    Hey Guys, Thanks to all for the help today and I really do appreciate it a lot. Feel great, no bodily malfunctions, just a severely dulled silver FJR to fix or replace and a bruised ego. We followed the tow truck driver back to the storage facility to check it out...Thanks Richard for the tip...
