Just bought a new one from ebay for $36 shipped.

My uncle was visiting and his bike fell into my Wee Strom which fell into my FJR, only damage to my bikes was a broken throttle side FZ1 mirror, the stock snapped where it mounts to the swivel base at the fairing (his ZZR1200 got quite a tank dent/crease from the Givi rack on my Wee). Any out...

I have the GS bug REALLY bad. The Wee Strom will go in the next couple of years and will be replaced with a GSA. There is a ton of them for sale all Farkled up for decent money (check out the classifieds on ADV Rider).

My '06 does the same thing after sitting for a week or two. I ride the Wee Strom more in the summer and the FJR sits sometimes when it's really hot out. They both sit when I'm at sea as well.

I wish they would have come with Locktite on them, I lost my lock a few days ago on the way to work. Good thing I had the topcase one for a spare!!

I just saw that one as well. Too bad the stuff is just sitting out there rotting away.

Looks like a perfect setup for Mythbusters!!

It's all relative. I went from an '01 Connie to the FJR (via a Wee Strom). I was going to buy new and looked at the FJR, Connie and ST1300, I decided on the FJR based on weight, looks, serviceability, premium fuel, etc. The used '06 FJR fell in my lap the day a deal fell through on a new '08...

Love my '07 Wee and my FJR. It's nice having summer and winter bikes!!!

Have two girls myself (20 and 16). The young one's been "challanging" to say the least. I guess we all have stories to tell, we just kept telling ourselves that at some point it will get better. We all need to pray for each other I guess!!

I installed mine couple of weeks ago with the step by step from a few threads on this board (it's my third install, Wee Strom and a C10 Connie) and it went perfectly. I tried no vacuum canister with taking vac off of only one cylinder and it didn't work very well (speed varied 5 mph going...

Gotta love Ryan Dungee.

The best thing about owning a Connie is COG!!! https://www.cog-online.org/ClubPortal/ClubS...menuoptID=13528 BTW, the valves will easily go 15K or more after the initial couple of adjustments.

Had an '01 that I really liked. I agree with the above, DON'T let him ride the FJR!!! I wouldn't pay over 4K for this one if it's in perfect shape. It's got no listed Farkles and all the bikes are exactly the same from 94-up. Don't be afraid to buy one with a ton of miles (for cheap) as long...

I finished mine up this afternoon, I used this as my source of info: https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?showtopic=16440 Cruise worked perfectly. This is my third install ('01 Connie, '07 Wee Strom and now the FJR). Good luck!!
