Jacksonville Fl Fjr owners

[FJRChick]

Anyone willing to lend tools and maybe coaching me through changing my headlight bulbs?

I've recently moved and all I have is a screwdriver, a hammer and a tape measure.

If you can't find anyone in the Jacksonville area and a ride down to Daytona sounds good, I would be happy to help.

Bah, just add some duct tape a chewing gum, you're good.

On the other coast, or I'd offer.

Thanks for all the help so far.

I saw TWN lightbulb change issues and am definitely intimidated

more info - I have an '04 and I have Xenon BriteLite BP1260/H4BL

A ride down to Daytona always sounds good . My favorite ride around here is from Daytona to Flagler, man that is beautiful.

don't need any tools other than small hands to just replace the bulbs.

Don't even need small hands on a GenI, lots of room.

Only tool is a 4mm hex key, maybe a philips screwdriver for the center plastic rivet (mine's missing, dunno what goes there.) Take out the inner panels. No fairings need to come off, you can reach everything from the top with the inner panels out.

The hammer should do it!

with smaller hands nothing needs to be removed - just reach in and pull the protective rubber cover off and unplug the light and undo the clip.

If you would prefer to come up to Georgia, I'm in Brunswick. Just changed mine last weekend, not to bad and the small hand things would probable help.

Well thank you everyone!

Cadman actually talked me through it in about 30 min.

Having small hands does help a lot, I was even able to have both of my hands in there to hold the clip aside while figeting the bulb into place.

Thanks tons Cadman.

flyguy and echo, I'd like to bank those offers if you don't mind.

I know I'll need to do some other maintenance stuff before my trip
