    Gen II Yamaha Touring Seat and Windshield

    The windshield was on the bike from new. A friend of mine was the original owner and he rode around 6k miles before selling the bike to me. He's around 6ft and said he liked the screen. I'm around 5' 9" and the screen was fine for me. I do a lot of 2-up riding and my wife was getting some wind...

    What do you think are must have/dos when first getting an FJR?

    Although the radiator guard jumped to the top of my priority list I still havent't picked one up yet :huh: so I'm in the market for one. I'm currently thinking about the Cox guard from Bike Effects. quote name='FJR Bill' timestamp='1341783686' post='980340'] Now be real cool and post a...

    What do you think are must have/dos when first getting an FJR?

    Yes, and it doesn't have to be on a gravel road. In my case it was on I20 in Alabama. No idea what caused it - never heard or felt anything. The first clue was when I started getting sprayed with coolant.

    What do you think are must have/dos when first getting an FJR?

    One of the (few) things that can strand you miles from home on a well maintained bike(in my case about 1000 miles from home) is a busted radiator from road debris or small rock. It was about the size of a pin hole but enough to disable the bike. After my experience with this, a radiator guard...

    Replacing radiator on 2008 FJR

    I just received the FSM and the first thing it says to remove are the throttle bodies. Please tell me I don't have to pull the throttle bodies off :o

    NERDS check in please....

    I finally arrived home on Saturday morning around 3am, unfortunately with the FJR in the back of a pickup :angry2: The ride back started uneventfully - left Stowe around 7.35 am and ran into rain after about 45 minutes. We needed to be in Ancaster, Ontario by early evening to visit family...

    Replacing radiator on 2008 FJR

    On the way back from the NERDs ride in VT, something punched a small hole in the radiator on I20 about 550 miles from home. I've no idea what did it, but it had to be something kicked up off the highway as I had been riding for several hours on the interstate. Also the 'grill' in front of the...

    NERDS '11 is On-Line!

    We just got our FJR a little over a month ago and just saw this. Sounds like fun and we're thinking about riding up from Texas. I got on the hotel web site and it shows no rooms available for that period. We tried to call but the guy at the desk had no access to reservations and asked us to call...

    Has anybody used the "Autocom" system?

    I've had a Starcom and Autocom system and they are both very good systems. The only problem I've had is getting either systems to work well with CB. My personal theory on this (FTWIW) is that both systems were designed in the UK where CB isn't legal (or at least wasn't) and the systems don't...

    Where to get ready made power cable for Fuzeblock

    Thanks for all the replies. I found what I needed at Eastern Beaver. I'd been on the website, but somehow missed the page I needed. For future references; https://www.easternbeaver.com/Main/Products/Fuseboxes/Wiring_Kits/wiring_kits.html

    Where to get ready made power cable for Fuzeblock

    I've ordered a Fuzeblock and was wondering if anyone knows of a source for the power cable to connect the Fuzeblock to the battery. I know it wouldn't be too hard to make up, but I'd prefer to buy one already assembled. It needs to be 2 wire, 10 or 12 guage with 'ring' connectors for the battery...
