When the pegs start to scrape
Get your arse off the seat.
When your Knee is dragging
Point your elbow to the ground
When that starts dragging
Pass Valention and Lorenzo in one swift manouver.
As long as you are not still accelerating just hit the paddle to shift up . Once you get the feel of the throttle then a slight twitch of the wrist to drop the gas off is all that may be needed at slower speeds. I found out recently that I can blip the throttle on down shifts as long as I get...
This is how I control my AE in slow going just the same as I would with a clutched bike .
Mine07 has also had the ECU changed to fix 'altitude sickness' and had the fuel mixture enriched to suit the Two Bros Pipes. Now it rides like a new FJR should without the snatchy throttle at low speed...
40 and 42 ish but I usually ride two up . Anything less on the front and it feels like it wants to fall into corners and feels very mushy . I was bragging to a mate that since I set up the suspension as per the forums average ( as opposed to factory mush) I hadnt touched the pegs down and have...
I test rode one recently as part of the Aussie Spyder Experience they are running ATM . I rode the RS SE with the semi auto shifter thing .
I was impressed with the fun factor to be had but reckon it would be hard work on a tight and twisty road. But what a weapon on a wet tight an twisty...
I have M-5 s from memory I bought em off a fellow forum member , but hey came without decibel arrestors and they where unbearabley loud . I made a set of decibel arrestors with a 40 mm through hole . now they are loud enough but nbot unbearable and dont pop back to much on the throttle overun...
In Australia we dont usually suffer from altitude sickness nor do FJR 13's but mine had a major flat spot whilst touring the "High Country "in Feb this year after a fairly quick mountain road descent.
My 07 always had a harsh throttle reaction from idle that made tight twisty stuff and...
I just got 2 new PR2's fitted rode home 100 kilometres and I just measured them and they have 6mm tread depth maximum on the rear at any point and 5 mm maximum tread depth on the front.
Lets see if I can get more than 11,000kms out of this set.
Squeeze the gas off very slghtly , more a twitch of the wrist rather than a flick oh the wrist on the up shift from 1 to 2 after that dont back off but shift when the bike isnt accelerating hard. I have under extreme circumstances shifted flat stick at redline now that is interesting and fkin...
