    Jeff Ashe

    This past weekend Jeff Ashe (aka HaulinAshe) gave my 06 FJR the once over SPA (service) treatment. No bike has ever received better or more complete attention to needed service items!!! From Front Forks (flush and refill) to Drive Shaft, splines, universal joint, steering head bearings...

    Bridgestones Suck

    Well..... So far I love my BT 021's !!! (Even if they are still in their shipping straps!!) Spent the better part of the afternoon with Haulin Ashe. He was helping me change both tires with the new Bridgestones. I was very patient with him helping. You know you have to be careful not to hurt...

    Dropped my FJR, DOH!!!

    eworth, Did the same thing about 8 months ago. It took me weeks before I stopped trying to figure out exactly what happened. Thought I had the stand down correctly. I now have a new procedure for getting off. 1) Engine off. Leave in 1st gear. 2) Release clutch and push bike slightly forward...

    Roaring noise from front ??

    I have since been told the same thing by my Eastern NC resident guru...... of Richlands NC fame. Now running Diablo Strada on front. Fairly new..... only 3000 miles. Hope that's it !! Thanks !!

    Roaring noise from front ??

    Tried a couple of searches with no luck. Bike has developed a very noticeable roaring sound from the front when in a curve or when weaving back and forth on a straight road. No sound when just going straight. 2006 with a little over 20,000 miles. Ideas? I'm not a wrench turner.

    Two M.C. Fatalities on my Patch Friday

    JB, I agree completely with your comments about motorcycle accidents. Also like David Hough's books as well. I must say that the Hunter Thompson quote is a bit ironic with these accident reports. On another note....... we have a son in SF who just graduated from Law School there. Maybe we...

    I need the black rubber thing on the left side bag. Has the Yamaha name on it. Tried several searches here with no success. My Yamaha dealer says the part is back ordered with no known delivery date. Anyone know where I can get one?
