Update: All Items spoken for. I am cleaning out the garage of various spare parts. I have the OEM rear rack and bolts from a 2010 FJR (took it off to put on Givi rack) and now have sold the FJR. Have handlebar risers and bolts for a 2003 FJR . Glad to ship either of these to you if you'd...

I sold my 2010 FJR and left my GIVI trunk rack on the bike. That leaves me with the original OEM rear rack and bolts in my garage. Does somebody want this? Perhaps you banged yours up and want to replace it? This one is the 2010 silver color. John ([email protected])

You've all heard the expression- "its not IF but when." Well my when happened yesterday. Actually it is a worse when- my wife low sided her Kawi ER6N on a relaxing sunday morning ride. There is nothing worse than seeing your spouse in a ditch! Luckily we always wear full protective gear from...

Created a Flickr site complete with pics and links to GPS tracks of a trip I took from Austin, Texas (home) to Big bend/ Fort Davis/ New Mexico, Gila National Forest and Apache national forest in NM and AZ; the famed "Coronado loop." All together was over 2,500 miles and I was amazed the...

I bought the optional brake light kit to be installed on my V46 trunk- However, the Italian translated directions are a challenge- but should be able to work through it. However, as far as wiring to the brake wires- their is no instructions as this would be bike-specific. Has anyone installed...

I have had a V46 on my previous FJRs and have been reasonably happy- though it can't fit but one of my Nolan helmets as compared to the two as advertised. I was thinking of getting the new E55- but am afraid this may be to big.I never found the V46 to catch too much wind and unsettle the way...

Great day for a ride here in Austin. The definition of a "Chamber of Commerce" day; near 70, bright blue skies, and me on my FJR :yahoo: Have owned this FJR for 5 days- rode it twice and have 600 miles on the ODO B)

:yahoo: See more pics here ( ). 568 miles in 10 hours- 3 stops. My day started at 5 am and off to the airport. Flight from Austin to Dallas- mechanical problems- had to take the next flight. Made my connection in Dallas- however- mechanical problems- had to take the next flight...

-haven't seen this posted before- so don't torch me if this has gone around a time or two. When I bought a new Nolan 102 helmet when I picked up my new 06 FJR about a year ago I ordered the new Atlantic blue color and was surprised and pleased to find that it matched the new FJR blue exactly...

Everytime I chage the gear oil on my 2006 it comes out black/greyish (I now how 6 k miles and have changed the gear oil 3 times). My long time service guy tells me that this isn't normal- so I call the Yamaha dealer and they tell me this is perfectly normal. I do not feel any metal pieces on...

Obviously the barbarian mod is free- but can muck up the harness in the process if your not careful? How easy is the PCIII install- it seems like no mods to the harness or ecu need to be done... Please clarify for an uneducated moron like me :dribble: John

For the 06 there are two knobs to adjust each of the two headlights independently. If I sit on the bike and have the bike X feet from a wall how high on the wall should the light be set for optimum all purpose lighting? I certainly realize that this can depend on how curvy the road is ect- but...

On Friday, September 15, 2006 I, with three other "crazy" members of the "Mild Bunch", started off on our long-distance riding adventure to complete the Saddle Sore 1000. The four of us departed Austin at 5 a.m. CST sharp from Rudy's Country store Loop 360 South, headed north on I35 to...

I finally figured out why I was having such a hard time getting the NEP lock to work correctly so that the throttle would easily return to off when the NEP lock was released. I have a 06 FJR with stock grips covered by grip puppies. I tried to make all kinds of room in the area on the inside...

I followed all of Fred's directions to install a NEP throttle lock (CC3) on my bike. I have an 06 with the stock grips covered by grip puppies. The problem seems to be that even with the NEP in the unlocked postion that the throttle won't return to the off position - seems to fit too tight...

Sorry, I tried to do a search specifically for the NEP throttle lock but the search engine won't accept words that are less than 4 letters- Does anyone have experience with this product? Anyone use on the 06 model? John

Went riding today with my friends and one had a wool cover for the seat of his GS (it came with his purchase of this bike from an ebay seller). It didn't have a manufacturer tab or name. It was so comfy on the tushy. I like the 06 seat OK, but thought if they made one of these for the FJR I...

I am not sure which forum I have seen this on before, could some of you Iron Butt riders suggest some summer undershorts to wear under my vented pants. I am heading from Austin to sante Fe in a couple weeks to qualify for the saddlesore 1000. Thanks for your suggestions (or links to previous...

Just received my new Nolan 102 flip up - color is Atlantic blue and is a near perfect color match to the 2006 FJRA! So for those of you who want to be a fashionable match to your bike this is the one. See the picture at : https://www.helmetcity.com/page/HC/CTGY/n102solids

Some time ago someone asked about recieving the YES contract from Mammayamma. I received mine today. I picked up my bike from Tony O on April 7th. So I guess that makes it 6 weeks 5 days until receiving the contract. They include with the contract a handy maintenance card- something that is...
