    For Sale: 2012 FJR1300 with 3013 miles

    Too bad you aren't a bit closer. I'd like a Gen III, but that blue is beautiful. Good luck with the sale. I'm still saving up for an FJR. Looks like you have taken good care of it.

    Jeff Gordon undercover

    There are no real pranks by major advertising. Funny, but nothing about this even seemed remotely real. *SHENANIGANS* which has already been well pointed out and referenced by FJRob1300 and Fred W and others. Thanks for the link, Fred.

    FZ1 Mirrors

    Well, the previous link was for Partshark with the Gen II FZ1 (2006-present) mirrors. I'm afraid someone was referring to the Gen I FZ1 (2001-2005) mirrors. The Gen II mirrors twist, not really fold. I googled some pics of "FJR with FZ1 mirrors and I believe the pics were of the Gen I...

    FZ1 Mirrors

    That's a little funny as the stock mirrors on the FZ1 give me an excellent view of my elbows! They can be found for a retail price of $88.49 each and at PartShark.com for the discounted price of $59.01 each. These are items 38 Rear View Mirror A (part # 3C3-26280-00-00) and 39 Rear View...

    Dick the Dog

    I don't even feel comfortable asking, but here it goes... male or female? advertisement or invitation? BTW, I think someone did some PhotoShop work to connect the spot on his back to the spot on his rump. Still made me laugh.

    Just Got One: Yamaha FZ1

    I like the FZ1 because it is comfortable enough for 400-600 mile rides (with my Corbin seat), I can throw my soft bags on in seconds and change my windshield in minutes. It can be a commuter, a sport touring (not quite the FJR), track bike (not quite a SS), a hooligan machine or a great canyon...

    New 2013 FJR1300 Owner

    Did you mean tibia or fibula? Oh, heck... I guess they're both valuable... ;) Low speed maneuvering and high power will be the biggest differences. You'll love both bikes, in different ways.

    New 2013 FJR1300 Owner

    I'm thrilled you enjoy the 250. I've ridden my wife's Ninja 250 (poor little thing with my fat a$$ on it), and it is more fun in town than my FZ1 (which goes 86 in first gear). I really agree that the Yamaha’s Chip Controlled–Throttle (YCC-T) in touring mode combined with traction control will...

    Corbin Received and Fitted on Gen III--Lower and *Nice*

    I'm planning on Moonshine this year too (baring bad weather), but it will be a 18 mile ride for me. Pseudo-Fed, I like the FZ1. You need a Corbin on it too. I have an '07 with a Corbin and really like it. I've done about 350-400 miles a day on it. Not too bad. I think I could do more, but...

    New 2013 FJR1300 Owner

    Congrats on the new 2013 FJR. I hope to get a Gen III in the next few years. I'm on a 2007 FZ1 right now. I could spend the money on hard bags and a lot of other stuff to make it a touring bike, but I'd rather just have an FJR in addition to my FZ1. I learned in the dirt as a kid and dirt...

    My ride to the Blue Ridge Parkway video

    Great video. Thanks for sharing. I want to get down to BRP soon. I hope I will make it this summer, but I can't be sure yet. I puckered in my chair just watching that snow and ice section, especially on the way back. You needed the snow blower attachment!

    Just Got One: Yamaha FZ1

    I have an FZ1, but not an FJR, yet anyway. I belong to both FZ1 forums, but post almost exclusively on the www.FZ1-forum.com site. There's a ton of good info on both sites, but I personally find the www.FZ1-forum.com a bit more friendly. If you join up, look me up over there. I'm "BDazzler"...

    2013 Moonshine Lunch Run

    I only live about 20 miles away from Moonshine and 10 miles away from Casey (I'm in Greenup, IL - exit 119 on I-70). I'm sure I could make it if I'm not working and it's not raining (or snowing or icy - you just never know around here in April). I don't have an FJR, yet anyway, but I have a...

    Progressive® International Motorcycle Shows To Invade Indianapolis!

    I made it to the Indy show on the last day (Sunday 02/17/13). I was happy to get a look at some new bikes that hadn't made it to the showrooms yet, like the Honda CB1100 and the Honda 500's. I don't have a Triumph dealer anywhere close, so their lineup was great to see as well as the KTM...
