Just got back this week from a 3700 mile trek from home to NM, then picked up the wife in Duango, CO at the airport for a trip up thru CO, WY and SD. The highlight of everything that we saw had to be the 100 miles or so from Durango north up to Ridgway (sp?) CO. We then made a left turn to go...

Well I was about 700 miles into my 765 mile ride today, throttle lock was holding 80 mph +/-, rolling through north TX on my way to Amarillo for the night. The flash of the yellow check engine light caught my eye and I immediately chopped the throttle and the light went off. Oil level is good...

Well, Winter has not been too kind recently in the Memphis area (home of dead Elvis) with lots of rain and cold, so last night I put the space heater in the garage and decided to tackle some farkles/mods I'd had on my "to do" list for a while. Read the sticky and laughed my ass off about...

Guys, Be gentle on me. I have an 06 FJR and an 04 Kawa Vulcan 1600. I have a Garmin GPS on the Vulcan that I want to move to the FJR. I know it has a powerport under the access door on the left side, but how do you get to the power and still close the top door? Bottom line, how do all you...

Folks, Just wanted to say Hi from a new FJR owner located just outside Memphis, TN in the metropolis of Olive Branch, MS. I've ridden dirt bikes for years and years, bought a 2004 Kawa Vulcan 1600 Classic (big cruiser) in April last year and have 11k miles on it. Even took that big girl over...
