    Engine dies at idle??

    I have this problem with my '07 Unfortunately, the adjustment knob is at full. Must I take it to the dealer to get more range out of that knob or is it easy enough to do with manual in hand and mechanical skills, but no familiarity (yet) with this bike? thanks, Rich

    Stupid Tank Bag Question

    I have a Tour Master/Cortech tri-bag (strap mount) also. It worked great on my CBR600F4, but on the FJR ('07) the bars hit it and sliding back isn't a good option as there is a severe slope on the FJR tank.
