    yamaha offering incentives to purchase new bike

    i see yamaha is offering some incentives to trade up. I have a 2006 fjr, considering this. They'll give you 500 bucks on top of your trade-in along with $1,000 cash back and a pretty decent finance rate (3.99% for 3 years). Definitely considering this. Looks like they offer it through 3/31

    bumper blides for sidebag

    recently i got my sidebag lid repaired. Upon re-attaching the lid to the sidebag, i noticed one of these rubber glides that are attached to the hinges missing. Does anyone have any extras? They really just protect the hinge when you take the bag off the bike and place it on the ground. They're...

    sidebags

    hi all, question for the group, damaged a sidebag today (actually fell off my bike as i didn't totally secure it) so now the outer cover has a bunch of road rash on it. Can you purchase this separately from the rest of the bag or do i have to buy a new bag entirely? thanks, rich
