    Getting ready to sell my FJR

    Long time no post; I'm getting ready to sell my FJR and having a tough time figuring out what to list it for. It is a 2007 with 30500 miles (basically stock with frame sliders and a luggage rack, nothing wrong with it). KBB says 6500 which seems way high to me, and when I look at craigslist and...

    fairing panels?

    Just the other day, I noticed that I can see the side of my battery, down alongside my forks. I don't know if I just noticed this because my new battery has a big, brightly colored sticker right where it is visible, or if there's a panel that is supposed to be there. Before I get all worked up...

    Planning a trip

    My wife is applying for some more 'edukashun' and if it happens...well, there probably won't be time or money for any long trips. For 4 years. That means if I want to make a trip out west, it will have to be this summer. So my tentative plan is to go to Yellowstone. I'm looking for tips and...

    Good for a little laugh?

    I went for a nice "fall colours" tour this past weekend (with NinjaChick on her ninja, and my parents on their wing). The last place we stopped was an orchard store in La Crescent, and when I was mounting up (after filling my saddlebags with apples), a little boy came up and said my bike looked...

    My trip to the Upper Peninsula

    Sometimes things don’t go as planned. Yet, sometimes what happens instead is wonderful. I had been planning to take this trip for some time. I have been on several weekend trips over the last few years, but  had been hoping to take a real ‘vacation’ for quite some time. At first, we hoped to...

    Fork seals! Argh!

    Alright, so I'm planning on going for a nice little vacation over the 4th of July weekend, and whilst trying to find a throttle lock that would work, I noticed my left fork is leaking! There was oil on the seal, a ring on the upper fork tube, and there's some oil residue on the little abs...

    Got an F4i

    I just got an 03 F4i. I hope my FJR isn't the jealous type. Anyone else got one of these beasts?

    Headset swap!

    I've got 2 J&M headsets to fit OPEN FACE helmets. One is an HS-ECD271-OF, the other is an HS-ECD269-OF. (The speakers look a little different between them) I need a J&M headset to fit a FULL FACE helmet. I understand that a helmet with an ECD, ICD, BCD or even CD prefix should be able to work...

    Winter Farkle-itis

    Well, I asked Santa to bring me a J&M CB radio for festivus. I guess he did. Well, actually, he had one on his ride, and he left it unattended...so I was like :unsure: :assassin: :yahoo: Well, I didn't have time to get the antenna, and he must have had the headset and lower cord on...

    Wanted: Sargent seat, for Gen II

    FOUND! Thanks forum! I'm looking for a Sargent seat. I've been watching the for sale section, and I'm annoyed that I just missed another one! So, if you are de-farkling your bike before you sell it, or if you got a Sargent and decided to get a custom seat, or for whatever reason you have a...

    Shifting problems

    The last several times when I've fired up my bike to take off, it won't shift from neutral into first. I pull the clutch in, all the way till it hits the grip, but when I push down on the shifter, it makes unhappy noises at me and won't drop into gear. I release the clutch and pull it in again...

    Audiovox Cruise Control

    My audiovox worked fine when I first installed it, but now, it doesn't. When I turn it on, the green light comes on, but then it goes out again. I'm not 100% if it goes out on it's own, or simply goes out after I hit SET. I don't use the cruise very often, but I did notice some time ago that...

    Loose steering stem nut?

    I've noticed a slight thunk noise, generally when going over bumps. It occurs to me that I noticed this shortly after I picked up my bike way back in 07, and and then noticed that my steering stem nut wasn't tight (it, like my brake caliper bolts, was only hand-tight). It just occurred to me...

    Gen II front Wheel Removal

    I've got my rear tire off, thanks to the instructions, however when went to start on my front wheel, I noticed that what I've got going on looks quite a bit different from what is in the instructions. Basically, I've got pinch bolts on BOTH fork legs, a large bolt head on the left, and the hex...

    Front tire shot?

    I've got about 7500 miles on my OE tires (the Metzeler Z6s) and my front tire appears to be just about done for (pretty well worn in the middle, wear bars are just starting to show). What I don't understand, and I'm hoping to get some enlightenment on (though I'll probably just get neprt'd...

    Time to soak my clutch!

    I swung by the dealer where I originally got my FJR this weekend (Vetesnik), and talked to them about my stiff shifting. I've been getting some clunking and lurching when putting the bike into first, particularly when cold. When I told the dealer that my clutch was recently replaced by my local...
