    Stop and go traffic, ABS light comes on

    I have kind of a weird problem with the ABS light on my 2010 FJR. As far as I can tell, the ABS works fine (tested in parking garage), but when I am in stop and go traffic maneuvering with rear brake and clutch lever, the ABS light will come on and stay on until I restart the bike. I've tried...

    BBG1500 Attempt on 3/21/2014

    Howdy folks, I'm currently planning out a BBG1500 trip for next week, and was wondering if anyone had any input on my plans. Here is the route from Google maps, showing my planned gas stops as well. I'm using the same gas stops outbound and inbound for simplicity. https://goo.gl/maps/j2FKV I...

    MV Motorrad riser and stock stem nut

    Hi all! I ordered a MV Motorrad handlebar riser for my 2010 FJR the other day, and realized today that I may have a problem. The Motorrad riser covers up the stem nut, and I had forgotten that this bike has a MCL Ram mount ball nut thingy that is probably too tall to fit under the riser, even...

    Preparing for first SS1000

    I'm planning out a SS1000 (Phoenix to Tucson to Las Cruces to Albuquerque to Flagstaff to Phoenix) for hopefully next week, and I was hoping someone could help clarify the rules for a start and finish witness. I thought I read in the official IBA rules that you could get a friend or spouse to...

    For Sale - 2006 Triumph Tiger 955i - Phoenix, AZ

    For Sale 2006 Triumph Tiger 955i $5000 (no trades please) I bought this bike from an ADV inmate almost 4 years ago, and have loved it for over 12000 miles. I bought this to do some light dual sport riding, but never even took it on a gravel road. Things change and I ended up buying a 2010...
