Sorry, I forgot to mention two other things that may be of interest ... I have the camera mounted on a RAM ball .. on the left handlebar of my Wing, and a centre mount between the handlebars on my FJR (purchased from Motorcycle Larry), and ... the Drift camera is highly water-resistant in it's...

I have a Drift Innovations Stealth HD camera. I have been very pleased with the quality of video and photo's it takes. I have some video posted on my FB site - have a look if you wish - https://www.facebook.com/stirling.bates?ref=name#!/media/set/?set=vb.100000131674248&type=2 Two of the...

Chaz, I am interested. Can you email photo's to [email protected]? Thanks!

Hi ! I too am new to the world of sport-touring in general and the FJR in particular ... just bought my 07 FJR in March. I took the approach of those who have recommended "ride it first, then decide what you want or need to do to make it fit you". Have a look at this site...

Do you have any photo's of your highway pegs, with the Kuryakyn extensions, that you could post? I have only had my FJR for two months, and am about to go on my first significant trip ... with some trepidation about comfort on several consecutive long days, as I am used to having footpegs and...

Ooops! I still working on figuring out this Posting business....

+1 ! Spectacular road ! Good surface, very curvy (follows the shoreline of the lake, albeit from a great height), and no traffic! 0 Report MultiQuote Reply Edit

On the inland ferries, bikes do NOT get priority boarding or off loading ... but if you get the right ferry crew (i.e. probably folks that ride), and go where they tell you without complaint when they board you (i.e. not like you are entitled to get off the ferry first), bikes will often be sent...

I've used an AirHawk on my Wing(s) for many years - great comfort for long days (for me) of 800+ km (500 miles). It only takes a little air - if it's over-inflated then it isn't nearly as comfortable. I haven't used the AirHawk on my FJR yet (only had it for two months, most of which has been...

+1 on the Black Cherry colour of the 07. The FJR looks great in any colour, but even greater in the 07 Black Cherry!

I've been riding touring bikes for 20+ years (mostly Wings), and sport-tourers (the FJR) for two months. I would love to keep both, but it isn't practical - I can only ride one at a time. One of the biggest factors in the decision will be ... how is the FJR on long trips? The Wing is pretty...

I couple of route suggestions ... 1. Highway 99 from North Vancouver to Squamish, Whistler (Sea to Sky) and on to Lillooet. From Pemberton to Lillooet has some very twisty sections, a lot of new pavement, and some spectacular scenery. 2. I suspect you are going to Prince George for a reason...

Tell us what colour you painted it, and we can use our imagination ...

I have a full coverage Arai RX7 Corsair helmet ... I generally wear a set of Bolle Parole sport glasses (they're used a lot for cycling) - they fit very comfortably inside the helmet, and have the added benefits of (1) having interchangeable lenses (clear, low light, bright light and polarized)...

I just picked up my new to me 07 FJR last Friday - after only 250 km I already love it! I bought it slightly used (6,005 miles), and it did not come with an Owner's Manual. I have checked the pdf manual on the Yamaha website, but could not find an answer to this question, so I am hoping the...

Demetri, Do you know if your Cal-Sci windscreen will fit a 2007 FJR (Gen II)? If so, can you give me an idea of its dimensions compared to the stock windshield? Thanks! Suar

Kamal, Your message and the replies it generated served as a good heads up for me, as I have been thinking of buying a couple of farkles from A Twisted Throttle. Please post how your experience with them turns out. Your comment about your upcoming cross-Canada trip piqued my interest, and I...

That looks like a great set-up! I am always being tail-gated - Canadian drivers are awful drivers - so am always looking to make my bike more conspicuous to vehicles behind me. My last bike was a GL1500 GoldWing - it had 3 sets of bike-wide horizontal running and brake lights (saddlebags...

I know it's five months since the last post (Aug2011), but did you get a reply from Garauld? Is he still making tail racks? If so, can you suggest the best way to contact him? Thank you! Suar
