    Thoughts on selling

    Here's my report. Also cross posted on ADV... Maggot how did your test ride go on the tenere today. The ride was awesome.... first I must give a shout out to Dwildt Yamaha in Barrie, and Chris for making the ride happen. The Yamaha rep from Toronto brought the bike up in his truck, and I...

    Thoughts on selling

    Thanks for keeping this going. I have no issue with the seat and have kept the stock seat on every bike I've owned. No monkey butt or lower back pain. The shield is a Cee Bailey and larger and wider. Very clean pocket. According to the ergo site, Ideally I would like the handlebars another...

    FJR Comfort vs. FZ6

    You can read my thread on "thoughts on selling". 45 yr old fit, muscular guy and consecutive days my knees are killing me. Not just bothersome but painful. 5'9" 30 inseam. Similar riding position as the FZ, but the FJR is much more refined and bigger, you won't tire as quick, and longer days...

    Thoughts on selling

    Guys thanks for the replies. Thinking every day, made adjustments in suspension which felt like a different handling bike but still not helping the knees. The pushing from behind of my daughter was an issue, and that goes along with biting so much off, especially not only for me, but for her...

    Big Trunk, Little Trunk, Rack, Bags?

    I'm going thru this right now. 1 up and the three OEM cases have plenty of room for both tenting and hammock. But 2 up camping and everything gets filled fast without strapping anything else on the bike. I have a Pelican 1600 that I used on another bike and am making it to fit the FJR once I...

    Thoughts on selling

    The bike is not going.... I have never touched the suspension but I can adjust a little. Throttle spring is done, got a throttle lock. I lifted the seat and that would help the knees a little, but then I was leaning more... So not sure which way to go. Maybe move it mid day. Still...

    Top box and mounting brackets

    It's Yamaha factory box. I thought all years were the same.

    Top box and mounting brackets

    I have an excellent condition one from a wine 07 that I would consider selling to go for another option.. Would depend on shipping costs from Ontario. I'll do a search to see what they go for, and can check on shipping...
