[QUOTE="sapest, post: 1466398, member: 29340"] There are many many maintenance threads on this forum that will be a better reference than anything I could add. Search is your friend. Tire pressures, suggest 40psi frt and 42 rr as a place to start. Coming from something much smaller note that FJR’s can be piggish a very low speeds. Be very careful about the combination of low speed, frt brake and turning. Your bike has two personalities, its all Mr Hyde until about 4500 rpm, then Mr Jekyll comes out to play. If you get into the low speed “shes going over” situation, just step away. You are not going to able to stop what is about to happen. You dont want to add injury to insult and get stabbed in the ankle by a footpeg. You have great brakes, excellent lighting and an engine that just wont quit. Enjoy. -Steve [/QUOTE]
