    Bike shut off

    Inlaw1 Yes they replace the entire lock assembly and give you a new key only for the ignition. Now you have two keys. I have heard you can wait a few days longer and have the new lock rekeyed by a competent locksmith, but the shop is unwilling to participate in that. Give them a try.

    Calling all those with ignition switch issues

    I had two FJRs which my sons used for commuting to school a distance of 40 miles each way. One had ignition failure and had to be in the shop for three weeks waiting for a replacement from Japan. Then the other one exhibited a very bad case of the dreaded surge problem. It has been very...

    Tampa ,Pinellas, Pasco Cy riders

    It may be fun if you add Ozello Trail to your ride, and use Ehren Cutoff and Bellamy Bros blvd from US 41 as you head North. I live near Brooksville but will be happy to meet youall at US 41 and SR 54 intersection at 0700. Its much more enjoyable to begin riding before the sun get too hot.
