I have just passed 14K on my 05 model. I got it in may 05, so It is now 3 years old. I have 2 more years on my extended warranty and I will probably not have more than 22K when it expires. Have the ticker problems been bad on the last 05's delivered? Does anyone have a reasonably accurate guess...

I need to be sure I'm putting good clean water into my FJR1300 and I have a hard water issue. I don't like the salt eating water softeners and I'm hoping someone that reads this has had experience with an electronic water conditioner similar to the one sold at FREIJE.COM or DDCHEM.COM. The one...

I'm sure this has been hashed and rehashed on this forum, but I can't find it. My new rear Pilot Road (600mi) picked up a small sharp rock and went flat. I called 4 cycle shops who, without looking at the tire, say it must be replaced. I have a friend who repairs tires and claims plugs are very...

I have calculated the mileage on almost every tank of gas since owning my 2005. It has always been between 44mpg and 52mpg depending on the type of roads and speed. I fill at the same station, same pump, and to the same level in my tank every time I check it. At 10,500 I replaced my Metzeler...

UPS just dropped off a new set of Michelin PR's on my porch. I will take the advice given here and pull my pumpkin (that just don't sound right) while my wheels are off. I ran across some SUPER-TECH Moly-Lithium Extreme Pressure Grease in my garage. It says it is for automotive gears, U-joints...

Any opinions on Michelin Pilot Power tires. The dealer nearest me has a special on them right now. Maybe that should tell me something. :blink:

I am prepared to accept abuse. I just got off my 05. It has 10,043 miles on it. It still has a bit of tread on the original Metzlers. Yeah, I know, I am not riding it right. (yes, I have feathers) I did buy some NGK Iridium plugs at 8000 miles. They are still in the box. Is there really any...

I sold a Suzuki 1400 Intruder when I got my FJR. The bolts that held the exhaust pipes to the block had to be tightened about every 4000-5000 miles. That never happened on any Hondas I owned. Has anyone had to tighten the exhaust bolts on the FJR? I don't want to take it apart to check them if I...

I just got some Motovation sliders and their instructions lack something. They list 2 wrenches you need. One is a 12mm allen wrench and the other is a 14mm box wrench. As it turns out, unless I am totally screwed up, (very possible) the allen head bolts in the package require a 10mm and an 8mm...

Here's a few. Blue Balls

Why bother to shave? :haha:

Barbie One day a father gets out of work and on his way home he remembers that it's his daughter's birthday. He pulls over to a toy store and asks the salesperson, "How much is the Barbie on the display window?" The salesperson answers, " Which one? We have: Work out Barbie for $19.95...

SpeedFreaks "Testament to Modern Medicine" was painful to see, so I thought I'd tell you guys how my Christmas went, to cheer you up a bit. Danica Patrick (Indy Doll) and I had Christmas dinner together. I then spent the night with her, in the same bed. How about that. :D No BS, Scouts...

I have in my possession two coins minted in San Francisco in 1943. They total fifty five cents. One of them is not a nickel. What are they?

If your wife asks you a question and you walk far enough into the woods that no living thing can hear you before you answer it, are you still wrong??? :D

I don't know if this has already been here, if so, forgive my repeat. I think it is neat. Someone went to a lot of trouble to do this. DANCING LIGHTS :rolleyes:

I have only read a couple articles on helmets and rather than hunt more, I thought I'd ask the experts. I have a 6 year old HJC full face helmet that fits perfectly and can get a new one in an aluminum/silver color (The yucky color on my bike) which matches the unblue part of my FJR for $159...

My 05 has had a "howl" in it since new. The dealer says it's normal. It is sometimes a bit irritating. Sounds like the scream of a jet engine. (maybe it is) Is it normal? If so, is there any specific type of oil that helps tone it down?
