    Let's see what jacket you're using.

    Since your in So Cal I'd suggest you go to Chaparral Motorsports in San Bernardino. They have an enormous selection of jackets from most makers. You can try everything on and decide what you like. Their people are very helpful too. It's a long ride from OC but worth it...

    Oil Filter Purolator 14612

    Exactly the same problem for me. The Purolator just didn't feel exactly right on installation. The gasket touched and I wasn't able to turn it the 1/2 to 3/4 extra. I chalked it up to me not paying attention as I screwed it on and figured I'd just missed sensing when it first came in...

    I too had a leak that I could smell but never could find until removing the the side covers. What I found was a hose clamp that need just a slight tightening. The leak was at the water jacket joint and just dribbled down the tubing and steamed on the headers. Never enough of a leak to...

    How hot is normal of Gen 1

    I came from a C10 Concours and that sombitch fried my shins on hot days in slow traffic. Seriously expected to see blisters when I'd take my pants off. My first Gen FJR is never an issue. I guess it's a matter of what you compare it to. 144 HP = 107,381 Watts That's a lot of heat to...
