will my 2003 get that hot?

[Semper Fi]

Thanks for all the help! I will try the heat fixes this winter and I will let you know how they work. It gets cool here at night but the bike keeps me warm!

I second all the comments here. I will add that you don't need to go to all the effort of doing the full heat mod. I just took some foam blocks, wrapped them in heat-shield foil,loosened up the back of the fairing and stuffed them in there. Oh, and I lifted the tank up and put heat-shield material underneath. Four years, still good.

I just got some heat shield and will do the same. That tank got HOT the other day.

Thanks!

I have said it before, And it's worth repeating again...

You don't know hot until you have ridden a large displacement V-Twin. I had a Honda VTX1800 prior to the FJR, And trust me, This thing feels like it has built in A/C by comparison!

You don't post for like 3 years, and when you finally do, this is the snivelling baloney you come up with?? I had a VTX1800 too, and it was never hot. However, unlike you, I rode it like a man.

Kisses... :****:

With Majicmaker, in this context, 'roast' and 'touch' are interchangeable.

Brother Ray, I really do hate to correct you on the Forum but when you type the words ******* Zilla™ you must add the Federal Trademark Symbol.

AJ spent big bucks to have ******* Zilla™ trademarked with Department of Commerce, he's pissed if you don't use a ™ symbol with ******* Zilla™!
