    fed up

    Try these, the theory behind them is solid. I have a set I haven't tried yet. https://www.vibranator.com/street_bikes_s/23.htm The set for the FJR comes with a simple tool to remove the stock bar end attachment plug.

    Did You Name Your Bike ?

    I named mine Lily, after our cat that killed a few years ago. My ZX-14 is named Daisy after my dog that died last year.

    Looking to Buy a WheelDock

    +2 on the condor, I have two of them and use them for everything from maintenance to putting them in trailers, they can fit all size wheels, even back tires and they fold up nice and hang on the wall out of the way.

    Unique Power Commander Setup?

    You spent $900 on a full system and you don"t wanna spend $150ish for a custom map? That really is the beauty of a power commander, getting a map for exactly how your bike breaths. I just cut up my airbox and she going in for custom map #2 as soon as the weather gets better.

    SIilicone and rubber

    I replaced mine with silicone caps I got from Macmaster Carr. they are still fine 3 years later, I also use them for brake bleed nipple capss on my truck and they hold up fine there as well.

    power commander programmer

    They did not offer it, but I also did not ask. I just decided to save myself the hassle of taking it out and shipping it, plus I have a lot of friends with power commanders so I figured it might be handy to have around.

    Staintunes

    I had a Staintune full system on a DR650 awhile back, loved, great pipes, but spendy. For the 1K you can add 200 and get a Holeshot full system for your FJR thats the route I went.

    You are probably right, certainly with the warmer weather. I will play around with it a bit more. I have a separate map for cross country trips so when using that map I will for sure disable it.

    '06 Front Wheel Oscillation

    The stock suspension set-up on the FJR eats front tires if you are not vigilante about tire pressure, I know, I killed one in less than 1500 miles from being lazy about checking the pressure, it kills them by scalloping them, once it starts it only gets worse and there is no way to correct a...

    power commander programmer

    I ordered the pcprog box. I checked about the firmware changes and Dyno jet said nothing has changed for FJR's regarding firmware, unless I want to use and LCD module or ignition module etc....Which I don't. But I wanted to have the box around in case something comes up and I need to update the...

    power commander

    I got out for a nice ride today and while I can't be positive of the changes with the ACP feature I will say that throttle roll-on was smoother and a bit more powerful. I do have it set at a pretty low setting though. Throttle twist rate at 75%, percentage of added fuel 8% and revolutions at...

    superceded TPS 3p6-85885-00-00

    Here is what i have discovered, the old p/n is replaced by the p/n same as 2008/2009 fjr's. I has less resistance in the spring mechanism (softer, more sensitivity?) which is why the resistance values are out or whack with my 2005 manual. So not having the proper resistance values to set it...

    superceded TPS 3p6-85885-00-00

    Not knowing what else to do and assuming the new part is good (can't get old one in spec) I put the bike in diagnostic mode, turned tps until I got closed throttle at 15, then snugged one screw, opened throttle, it read 100, snugged and rechecked, 15-100. I will cruise down to the yami dealer...

    superceded TPS 3p6-85885-00-00

    The part number 5ps-85885-00-00 has been replace with 3p6-85885-00-00. But none of the resistance measurements in my 2005 service manual are correct for the new p/n. Anyone know where to get the new set up values?

    power commander

    I am going to call DJ on Monday and ask them the difference in the firmware, I just downloaded the new PC3 software and it has a bunch of new features, accelerator pump, cylinder trim and a few others, I want to use the AC pump feature for sure, so I need to know if my old firmware supports the...

    power commander

    Unfortunately not. My firmware is old enough to require a special "Box" that I will have to use once, then the new firmware allows all usb firmware updating. See page 2 My link
