Maybe there is a story to go with that seat. Couldn't be too many in the US unless it's from Florida :)

I didn't see any mention of a valve adjustment and it's way past due. A tight valve could cause your problem.

You said you did the fork seals two days before the problem started. I'm guessing a wire got loosened while removing the forks. I would start there. If you can get it to start again, start moving the wires around and see if the bike stops. There are alot of wires in the fairing and it would make...

I had 62 years in SoCal, CA. Great weather, surf, and pension but that's it. Now in TN where I can ride almost year round except for a couple days a year, a huge raise in my pension because no state income tax, every other CA tax and insane cost of living. Now I have to get TN to pass lane...

I have been through one set of the Metzler Roadtec's and really enjoy them. I ride in all weather besides ice and snow in TN and ride pretty aggressively (30 year LEO motor.) The tires wear very well with no cupping and I got great mileage out of the first set. I just installed my second set. I...

I thought the same thing then my daughter moved with my only granddaughter. Sold everything and moved to Nashville TN. I love the change of pace and the beautiful riding areas. I was a Southern California native for 62 years.

Federal law 49 CFR Part 571.108 S7.9.4 allows motorcycle headlight modulation systems in all 50 states. Federal law supersedes state law so they are legal in all 50 states. As a former motorcycle LE with 30 years experience, I don't own a motorcycle without a modulating headlight. The new units...

Got to watch out for those Migs coming from every direction It is sad anytime we have to put one of our beloved mares down but I'm glad you only have minor injuries and have already decided to get back on a new steed. God speed from Hendersonville, TN.

I love the gold rims. Enjoy your new ride.

It's not that far fetched. Alot of manufactures in Japan are already discontinuing certain models because they can't meet their air quality standards. If our government can eliminate gas mowers and leaf blowers, its only a matter of time before they come for our motorcycles.

I can relate to the hole story. There are some terrible ones in the Nashville area. I don't see how a giant piece of concrete breaks out in all three lanes of the freeway. In Some states they don't let semi-tractors with trailers in the fast lane or Number 1 lane of traffic so that was always...

Next time you fuel your bike, top it off. Ride your bike the way you normally ride for 100 miles. Top it off again and record the the amount of fuel you put in the tank. Divide 100 by the gallons and that will be your accurate mileage. If the fuel gauge is showing empty and you only put 3...

Is there shipping on top of the $300? I'm in Tennessee>

Mobil 1 makes a synthetic for motorcycles. I use it in my 2014 and it works great. Maybe Mac1 can clarify if he used the motorcycle or car oil. Are you the original owner? If not maybe the previous owner(s) was hard on the clutch.

I replaced my front and rear tires that I had mounted at Cycle Gear. They did a great job. They didn't put a mark in my black wheels. They used black weights to balance the rims, which made them disappear and I had black 90 degree valve stems installed. They make it much easier to put air in the...

Mine did the same thing two weeks ago. I drove to Home Depot to pick up some nails and when I started the bike to leave, it turned over slowly and would hardly run. I checked the battery voltage and it was shot. A new battery and she is running perfect.

I have been retired since 2011 but if I was still in charge of the motor fleet, I would buy the FJR-P in a heart beat over any other bike. The BMW's cost a fortune to maintain and parts are never available, the ST1300 is a great bike but it is dated (no electronic suspension, sport mode, etc)...

I bought the identical bike about a year ago with 2800 miles, 800 miles from my home for 8k. I did a fly & drive because the guy who owned it was meticulous about servicing his bike. When I got there, the bike was sitting on a white piece of carpeting in his garage. There wasn't a spec of dust...

I rode the ST1300 at work for years. I loved the bike so much that I bought one after I retired. I rode it for 4 years before someone made me an offer to buy it that I couldn't refuse. I started looking at the FJR and really liked all the bells and whistles it offered. I found a 2014 FJR ES a...
