    Inexpensive front end stand that works great

    This is a very useful piece of equipment that is very easy to make. I added split foam pipe wrap to the uprights to protect the bike's finish. With the use of a ratchet strap and some soft ties, you can easily lift some of the heaviest bikes! https://www.fjr1300.info/howto/pipestand.html...

    Small problem installing factory heated grips on a 2008

    I was in the process of installing a bunch of farkles on my '08 and have come up on a little problem. The factory kit includes a new throttle cable housing that is enlarged to accommodate the electrical grip wiring internaly (unlike my "05 factory kit). Upon installing the little hold down tab...

    a warning to anyone installing Pazzo levers and Vstrom hand guards

    I recently installed a host of farkles on my 0 mile '08 (not much else to do in Michigan winters). I was planning on installing quite a few additional farkles after the 600 mile break in period as it would then be a good time for me to remove the plastics. This weekend I decided to take the...

    A Group Buy on leather jacket and pants

    I have been a member of this forum and a couple of others (CBRXX.com and CBR1100XX.org) for some time now. Recently a thread started by one of the members about a jacket she saw on an Ebay site caught my attention. I decided to pursue the matter and began investigating the opportunity to...

    Aftermarket shock with a remote preload

    Is there anyone manufacturing a quality rear shock assembly for a Gen II fjr that has a remote preload option? I bought the Wilbers during a previous group buy for my '05 and really like that feature as I ride 2 up on it on a regular basis.

    Electrical question

    When I installed a Back Off brake light modulator, and a Kissan self canceling relay on my '05, the hazard lights would no longer work correctly. Now that I am about ready to farkle up my '08, I plan on installing a Back Off modulator Audiovox CC (I saw the thread on the accessory relay...

    Another luggage rack question

    I am looking to install a Givi top case on my '05. I would prefer not to drill the plastics on the bike if at all possible (OHFJR), but I would like to retain the capability to install the removable Sargent backrest for my wife for around the town and short jaunts with/without the top case...

    Anyone live near/ride to Citrus Heights, California?

    Hi folks! I have just ordered a couple of embroidered tank bras (full and half) from Roger of Second Look ((800) 566 5753) from the CBR1100XX forum GB (WC has a couple on order, too). Roger has currently patterned an '06 FJR for a full tank bra as well as a half skin. In our discussions, he...

    Easy footpeg installation on Wild Bill's brackets

    Hi everyone, I was looking for a pair of good looking, yet longer than stock, footpegs to complement my forward-mounted bracket kit. I have previously installed Kuryakin pegs on peg extensions on the rear (wife loves them). A matching pair up front would have been nice, but, they were a bit...
