There is no Yamaha dealer there, but there is Hansen's Motorcycles. They're a rather well-known BMW dealer, so they stock all of the usual sport-touring accessories and tires. They also sell/service Triumph and Ducati, so their shop should have plenty of tools that would fit the FJR...not just the goofy tools that BMWs usually require.The staff there is really friendly and helpful. I passed through there on a tour just over a year ago on my way to Vancouver Island. My headlight hi/lo switch quit working near San Francisco, leaving me with no headlight (on my '99 R1100RT-P w/150K miles). I called Hansen's from SFO and ordered the switch...they'd have it by the next morning. I rolled into Medford at 10am the next day and the part was waiting at the counter. The parts guy was apologetic that they didn't have space in their shop to let me work on the bike, but they had no problem with me pulling my fairings to replace the headlight switch (and the oil pressure switch, which was also failing) right in front of their building. I tucked it close under the awning to avoid the rain. You know you're having a good time on a trip when you end up in a dealers lot like this:<a href="https://s3.photobucket.com/user/jbem2fo/media/BMWMFR.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="https://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y78/jbem2fo/BMWMFR.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>Give'em a call. I'm sure they will be able to help out.</blockquote>
