    FJR sat for year and a half

    I knew you guys would be on it. Thanks for all the great replies. Nothing in the intakes (maybe the cover discouraged them) so I'm good there. I didn't think about lubing the cylinders before turning over the engine. This advice I'm taking for sure: I've been off way too long, and what you...

    FJR sat for year and a half

    Heya Gents, The last time I had my FJR out was in 2013 (it's a 2012, ~7k mi). I put it up for the winter with stabilizer, a battery tender and a cover. The oil wasn't brand new, but I had changed it a month or so before. I changed the final gear oil (and greased the driveshaft) at that time...

    New PIAA Slimline Sports Horn

    I'm sorry. I worded that poorly. I meant they sound funky together; there's nothing wrong with the OEM horn.

    New PIAA Slimline Sports Horn

    Gents, I tried to find a more current thread but this one will have to do. Didn't want to start a new one for this. Got a question for you: I've installed the PIAA replacement horns, but only one side works. Don't ask why, but I have a total of four of these horns. So in addition to the...

    sale: 2006 FJR 1300A - Carmel, IN

    I just wanted you to know that at least one of us picked up on this magnificent line. Well done. :lol: I have a buddy I'd love to push this on but you're about six months too early for him- so good luck with your sale.

    Rear Wheel Install Problem

    Pictures would be helpful, as it's my guess you're missing something on the reassemble.

    Tail of the Dragon

    Looks like an awesome place; so why does everyone seem so pissed off in this picture? ­

    Look at me! Look at me!

    Okay okay, I know you don't know me and a lot of the members here are all friends off the forum and stuff, but my two much-more-fashion-attuned daughters say: Untuck that shirt!!!!!! :)

    Vandalism Prevention Ideas?

    ­ ­ I think the wisdom in this post bears repeating: ­ But this guy came up with the best solution: ­ The little cloth garage you posted seems like a nice way to keep out the elements, but not a determined teenager. Pocketknife anyone? Then you'll have a sliced up little cloth garage...

    FJR, shield and helmet. Buffeting......

    I've never used the RF1000 but I had the RF1100 for a couple years, then tried a Qwest. Qwest is much quieter for me - that RF1100 was deafening. I couldn't hear myself think, and had to use earplugs, which are now overkill with the Qwest. Also the 1100, being longer in the front to back...
