AVCC. I never use it but it looks neat
I can't tell you how many guys stop, point at the controller and ask "Wots dat?"

"It's the control for the flux capacimatator"

Seriously though, mine stopped working on the way back from EOM last year and I haven't had a chance to take a look at it. Glad I left the throttle lock on!

 
AVCC. I never use it but it looks neat
So I'll bite. What the hell's an AVCC? I think I want one.

FWIW, I googled "AVCC" and came up with:

Arkansas Valley Community Center

Australian Vice Chancellors Committee

Association of Vineyard Churches Canada

Alternative Version Concurrency Control

Aliso Viejo Chamber of Commerce

Alta Vista Country Club

Advanced Veterinary Care Center

Antelope Valley Community College. . .

and then I got tired of looking. So which one is it?

Farkle I feel best about? Cycleport Kevlar AirMesh riding suit.

 
I too have way to many farkles, each of which actually "adds" functionality and enjoyment of the FJR. But if I had to pick the #1 since for me performance is among the most important aspects, it would have to be the PCIIIUBS with a good map. The way i figure it, if you can really enjoy riding the bike, you tend to not notice other minor imperfections anywhere near as much.

Of course a better seat, GPS, superbrace, aux lights, cruise control, VC, Datel, Passport X50, Laser Jammer, Audio link up, Hwy Pegs, Givi topbox, CB screen, heated gear, throttle rocker, etc, etc are also of great value...

AudioVox Cruise Control

Have one and love it when I need it, but also don't use it much because most of my miles are commuting. With the Skyway mount, it looks like a factory installed cruise control.

 
I'd have to think...If the bike was damaged/totaled, what would be my first farkle replacement.

The Givi top case. This is the first bike I've had with a top case and it gets used every time I ride.

 
My vote is for aftermarket windshield! The stock one is fine all the way down, but is a horrible buffeter (is that a word?) when raised. My windshield duties are shared by the Vstream in fall/winter/spring and the Cee Bailey +2+0 for summer (2 weeks here in the PNW).

 
1. aftermarket suspension upgrade front and rear

2. Russells seats

3. StarComm

4. V-stream

 
On my FJR:

#1 PIAA lights on the front and Hyperlights on the rear. Gotta be safe out there!

#2 Helibar triple tree. Needed comfort.

#3 Frame sliders. Tip over prevention.

On my other bikes:

#1 Safety 'lights' front and rear.

#2 Frame sliders.

#3 After market exhaust.

Scoot

2. Givi E52 Gloss Black w/ SR357 mount.

3. Ram Bone GPS Mount. (check out the "fjr vendor offers" section and the thread title is "I've got balls," for those who're wondering.)

4. Powerlet outlet.

So, which brand bluetooth headset are you using? Does it allow you to talk on your Iphone?

Oh, to the topic on hand............

Without a doubt the best Farkle I have added is............Come on guys don't overlook the obvious here...............

The [SIZE=18pt]"Fuse Relay Power Distribution Block"[/SIZE] , perhaps some bikes come with them, but mine did not.

And without it I could not run all of my other Farkles....

So it's My [SIZE=12pt]NUMBER ONE FARKLE....HANDS DOWN[/SIZE]
