    Helmets

    I have a Shoie 1100. Best helmet i've ever had. Very comfortable. I used it for 7 years until I knew I had to buy a new one. Got a Neotech. I'm still breaking it in, but for my purposes. It's the best ever.

    RDL Seat options

    I had an RDL on my 2004 1150 RT fantastic seat. I could ride all day on it. I had an RDL on my 2010 GL1800 fantastic seat. I could ride all day on it. Alas the wing was destroyed in a flood. I picked up a 2004 FJR for SOMETHING to ride for a while. Flood repairs take a while and they cost...

    Below freezing riding

    One morning I rode my R1150RT to work at 19 degrees (that's COLD for central Texas). Stopped at the convenience store for something and the clerk says "you're on a MOTORCYCLE!!?) I loved that. Nothing eventful happened but I couldn't help thinking about what if someone had thrown the remains...

    2016 Is Official 6-spd, Slipper, LEDs, Analog Tach, Price

    How about Gen 3.5? From my lowly perspective of a Gen 1 (which MAY be my favorite bike ever and that's after less then 2 weeks of ownership... If they had made a deal with Russell for the seat, well, then truly it would be gen 4.

    Trip meter reset button doesn't work

    I didn't know they made brake cleaner. I need some of that too. My tractor was inundated in the flood that totaled my goldwing. The clutch disk is stuck to the flywheel. I've tried some maneuvers to unstick it to no avail. The next thing to try is to remove the starter and spray some brake...

    Trip meter reset button doesn't work

    Hi guys. I just bought a 2004 FJR on Wednesday and among the little things that need fixing is the multi function panel. I noticed that the clock was about 14 hours out of sync, so I pressed and held both buttons and nothing happened. Then I went to the gas station and being in the habit of...
