    Top quality HID kits for the FJR

    Thanks - I know it was a silly question, but I honestly could not remember if the lights worked with the key or engine on! Major brain fart!

    Top quality HID kits for the FJR

    Here's an easy question - just wanted to make sure. I have installed this setup today and the lights don't come on with the switch. Here's the dumb question - does the bike need to be started for these lights to work? If not, then I believe I have the culprit, but will wait until I hear back...

    PAIR Removal

    I cold get it out now I suppose, but would need to remove the tube to do it. Don't want to mess with dropping the coolant level, etc. etc. It will bug me for while, but I will get over it.

    PAIR Removal

    Somehow I knew Fred W would chime in with the Gen I comment! :P Ya, I had read and re-read on this topic for weeks before I got my bike and thought no problem. Ugh, was I wrong.

    PAIR Removal

    Just getting around to posting my PAIR removal nightmare. Man, what a PIA that was for me! First, I had no idea there was a YELLOW thread locker. I have heard of blue, heard of red, but not yellow (googled it and not sure why they used yellow, but they did.) I have never come across bolts...

    TireGuard TPMS 2-Wheel System ???

    +1 have used this on all my bikes for years with no issues. I did a balance with them and some without a balance and couldn't tell the difference. My set is off by about .2 on each tire - pretty good. Either that or my tire guage is off! Nice to simpy push a button and check pressures before...

    Seats

    Thanks for the review! Sounds like a great ride except for the heat. Mine is garaged the next few days since we are over 100 here!

    06+ specific help needed

    The TM must be moved - you cannot move the throttle tube. I would disassemble the TM and make sure the insert flange is actually inserted all the way or "deeper" into the throttle tube. Next, make sure the rubber lip that the TM screws against (which creates pressure on the throttle to hold it...

    Advice on placement of Power Commander?

    I thought PAIR removal was necessary if you install Autotune as well . . .
