    Gen 2 brake bleed procedure

    Eureka!!! That must be why I keep having a soft brake pedal. I've bled the rear brakes a dozen times, and no joy. I've never done the lower right from the rear reservoir.  I'm all over this tomorrow. Thanks.

    Windscreen Buzz

    Thanks for the help. This forum is a great community.  Turns out it was the panel that covers the battery.  Like most, I had the battery on trickle all winter. When I reinstalled the panel, the one fastener (top, just under the info centre) wasn't holding the three pieces tight enough.  I...

    Windscreen Buzz

    Hello Forum Members I need your help.  Lately, my 2011 has developed a really bad buzzing coming from around the windshield mechanism.  It only happens at around 2000-3000ish RPM in every gear.  Once I accelerate through that range it goes away. I haven't done any major disassembly in that...

    New Helmet

    Its interesting Marty A that you couldn't get parts for your 2 helmets. I recently returned from a 2 month work-trip to Japan, and figured that I'd be able to get cheek pads for the RF-1000 there. I learned that Shoei never sold the RF-1000 in Japan, it was produced for other markets, not Japan.

    New Helmet

    I'm looking at the GT-Air, or possibly going modular. I owned a Shoei Multi-Tec years ago when they were introduced, but found it very loud. Loads of wind noise ( I was riding an '03 VFR at the time). That experience has kept me from going back. I'm sure they've come a long way since then. I'll...

    New Helmet

    Looking for input on what everyone thinks of the replacing your helmet every five years as suggested by manufacturers. I'm currently riding with a Shoei RF-1000 from 2007. The helmet has never been dropped, and cosmetically looks new. The cheek pads are a little worn but other than that the...

    6 Speed Transmission on a Gen 2

    Hello FJR World, Just wondering if anyone has ever mated the newer 6 speed transmission to a Gen 2 (2011). After a few long cruise days, I really think the bike would benefit from having that additional gear. If this has been done, is it a Frankenstein scenario, or are there commercially...
