    Finally Rode an FJR, but didn't love it

    Last bike i had before the switch to an FJR was an R1. Since my local track closed down, cheap and easy track days are gone. I found the 45 minute highway slab ride to the mountains twisties was to much pain and suffering to enjoy. I was going to look at FZ1's for a more up right riding...

    Engine bolt torque for an 07 slider install

    my first ride in the twisties on the 07

    Today on my way to the mountains for some enjoyment. I become a victim of a hate crime. Some (crazed woman)Harley Davidson wannabee goes out of her way to flip me off cause im on a Yamaha. im sitting there not shure how i provoked this reaction. Then she speeds off in her Ford Ranger(Mazda)...

    Moving handlebar to rear position. Or are these still considered clipons? Anyways i dont have a service manual yet. Is it alright to ask for Torque specs. Search has not produced anything for me. If you are like me and winging it. Both bars must be removed since the nut plate under the top...
