newt,
Deano, just an FYI, but mine's a Gen I (2005). I'm sure Jon could hook us up, but if this other guy is already making them & he's here in Cincy I'm definitely going to scope them out ASAP. I'll report back here as soon as I make contact, meanwhile, have you tried to tweak the settings on the stock suspension yet??
ah, yes, i forgot about yours being gen I. those a/m clip ons do look sweet. at the spring fj rally jeff hoffman (not sure if he was there when you attended) adjusted my suspension for me. he used to work at traxxion and is pretty good on that stuff. i have no idea what the settings are, he "test rode" my fjr, came back, and told me what to do adjust and how much. odd, he came back from the test ride, and it's the only time so far i've heard my radiator fan(s?) on. ( :
Deano,
hey sure. tho i spoke with hippie cain, and he's all for taking my bike in and doing some mods to it. but he's leaving for isle of man race and won't be back for a couple weeks. when were you planning on going?
More miles & more smiles. The stock bars felt like ape-hangers to me. These clip-ons have completely transformed my 2005. Now I am connected to the bike the way I need to be. Lower, more forward & wider. Absolutely awesome.
stop it, greg, you're killin' me. i just put just under 400 miles on the bike today going up to northern indiana and back. still waiting on a couple people who have the potential to use my bike as prototype for the gen II bar mods. waiting, waiting, waiting...
As am I -- for somebody with more brains, more tools, and more free time than me, to make just the right set of bars for the GenII. Anyone?
either ramblinman's brother is going to contact me, or i have a buddy, jon cain, that does motorcycle modification with a cnc. he said he's interested in doing up pieces for an fjr, wanted to use my bike as the guinea pig.
