    Added a Vantrue F1 dashcam to my '22 today.

    Personal preference, mainly motivated by laziness. I didn't want to clean the bugs off the camera lens. There is a bitbof distortion from the polarized windscreen, but I can still make out license plates. It's been good. Set it and forget it, hope you never need it.

    More luggage options

    I have also used a drybag on the pillion seat when I needed extra room. I bought this one and it has worked very well.

    Added a Vantrue F1 dashcam to my '22 today.

    We've all had those close calls where you wish you could have had video. I didn't want a helmet mounted cam and I wanted something that just started when I start the bike and records until I shut it off. This does exactly that. Wifi to my phone if I want, I can pull video from the SD card...

    6 years ago today I traded in my '08 M109R2 for an '08 FJR.

    This spring I bought a '22 ES to replace the '08 FJR. Not because it was worn out or broken, but because I wanted factory cruise and ride control. My '08 is still in the garage with 98,000 miles on it, just waiting for it's next owner. Thanks to everyone in the group for the amazing advice...

    New bike needed a new home for the winter...Almost ready to bring in the tools and work benches.

    What I started with: What it looks like now: Letting the floor paint cure/harden for 24 hours or so, then bringing home the toolboxes, work benches, etc. The plan is the triple tuning forks logo and the FJR logo painted in the floor as well. I would love to take credit for this, but I...

    Just bought a new 2022 20th Anniversary Edition ES...

    Quite regularly the US colours are different from the Canadian ones, in the same model year. My 08 is a California bike, in metallic black. Same year in Canada is Silver.

    I was going to add a new Shad SH58X to my new 2022ES....

    Then I added it to the cart, along with the mount, back rests and interior bag. :oops::oops::oops:....Uh, I think I will just transfer over the SH50 from my 08 thanks. I WILL need to powder coat my bar risers before I move them over though. Everything on the new bike in that area is matte...

    My 08 is black. It's going to get covered in bugs anyway.

    Purchasing new 2022 ES...bags are on backorder

    Beauty, thanks. First long road trip will look a little funky because the paint won't be a perfect match, but I am looking forward to factory cruise and electronic suspension!

    Purchasing new 2022 ES...bags are on backorder

    Will the side cases from my 2008 Gen 2 fit on the new machine until the new side cases arrive?

    Relay arm bearings...they are a pain in the A**, but man, they gotta get done.

    Yes, my understanding is that they are a couple hundred bucks.  I will just replace the bearings.  Now that it has been out once it will be a LOT easier to get out the second time.   I appreciate the link though.  I'm not saying they aren't worth it, it's a pretty slick setup for sure.

    Relay arm bearings...they are a pain in the A**, but man, they gotta get done.

    This was from my '08 with ~90k miles on it.  I have to assume they have never been done. New bearings, seals and collars going back in.   Also, that M10x75mm bolt will be an M10x70mm bolt when it goes back in.  All ya had to do was put it in the other way!
