    Burnt shoes.

    Burnt shoes.

    I enjoy having the feminine (as large as they're petite and busty) species on for passenger rides on the FJR. Unfortunately some of them cook their shoes on the pipes and I have yet to find a way to get burned rubber off. Admittedly, a couple of those spots might be mine too. :) Suggestions?

    Electronic cruise control

    Its just a question. He's new to the site. Whats the problem? Did you have all the answers before you got on to this site?

    Ducati Hypermotard S

    I test road a KTM Adventure 990 a couple weeks ago, only because someone beat me to the SuperDuke first. :) I have to admit... I really enjoyed the ride! It was very happy on the highway with plenty of v-twin torque. Nice machine! Now I'm waiting for the RC8. (squirt!)

    Room up for the taking.

    Done. Room canceled. GRAB IT! Wish I could have made it. :(

    Room up for the taking.

    Hey all. Now I know why so many of you buy aftermarket seats. The stock seat is fine for a few hours, but all day... forget it. Besides that, I kept nodding off while on the highway... and as you might have guessed, thats not too safe. I had a damn close call. My guardian gave me a nice audible...

    Headed to NAFO (17 July)

    I just got in the condo. Tonight I switched the FJR to Motul Semi-Synthetic, moved the handlebars back, adjusted the GPS mount to face me better and finished my throttle lock installation. Last week I had a new rear tire installed. The warp ship is ready. :) Sunday morning I leave from...

    Throttlemeister Cruise Control

    I've tried the Throttle Meister on two Suzukis I had. I'd say they are okay, but I wouldn't buy them again.

    VMax Revealed...

    True, but that would make the FJR tank even heavier than it already is.

    Good Zumo 550 Deal

    I'm hoping whatever they replace it with will have the ability to play video as more and more others do. I'm always on the verge of buying an I-touch to have the ability to watch some shows while camping, but I figure I'll wait until Garmin releases a Zumo replacement. Either way, I Loooooooove...

    Two of my favorite things...Sigs and FJRs :)

    I want to know where they got those rear view mirrors! Very nice!

    BMW Superbike?

    Hi again. At the moment, I own an 06 FJR and an 07 R6. Both completely different bikes, and I'm likely selling the R6 very soon. If I had the cash to start again, I'd buy two bikes again. :) The FJR wouldn't be a consideration. I think its a great all-rounder bike but if I had two bikes...

    BMW Superbike?

    Something else to consider... While the rumored BMW is rated for 190hp, the current Hayabusa is 197hp, is very reliable and we know the current pricing. PS - Just as an aside, as much as I love BMWs, good lord I hate their %#$%$$#@'ing signal light layout. Its just plain retarded! Think of it...

    Bouncing V46 Givi top boxes

    Ah, it kissed the ground pretty hard. It would have scrapes in the plastic all over. My buddy at his bike shop gets me stuff at cost, so it should only cost $70 or so. I'm dropping off my FJR to him tomorrow to wire in the power for my Garmin Zumo 550 so at least the timing is convenient. :)

    Bouncing V46 Givi top boxes

    Well, Maybe I didn't have it locked into both tabs. I slid it in place as usual and hear a solid "CLICK" as it latched down. Oh well. I'll put it back on and see what happens. I'm just glad it didn't plow someone else's car behind me!

    Bouncing V46 Givi top boxes

    Hey all. Ah, today after hitting a pothole my V46 Givi box decided it wanted its freedom so it popped off and bounced and rolled... bounced and rolled. Watching it flee from me in my mirror didn't create a lot of joy in my heart for those couple seconds. Anyway, the painted panel is scratched...

    Bird Strike

    Even having a collision with a bee at high speed is like someone whipping a rock at your face. I'll never wearing open faced helmets.
