    Powder coat wheels

    Ignacio, you are completely off-topic! Thoroughly spank yourself, and not in the good way! Back to powdercoating, and particularly Garaulds 6-spoke wheels that I have never seen before. All the FJRs I've seen have three fat spokes. Am I the only one that sees this?

    My old Sena battery life is getting short

    I recently changed my SMH10 battery as well after 3 years of use. It's a 3.7V 560mAh LIPO with a JST 2.0 connector. The screws require a T7 torx bit. The backplate has an O-ring seal so it won't just fall out. You have to work it off. Also, the battery is attached inside with double-sided tape...

    Cold weather low-grip = low side this morning

    Ouch! Glad you're okay! Get a retail insurance quote on parts and buy them online. You should pocket a grand. Did the front tire give way? Were you trail-braking? You've got me worried. I'm nearing the end of a set of Angel GT A-Specs and about to go to RS3s before a trip to the Smokies with...

    Powder coat wheels

    What wheels are those? They don't look like the ones on my FJR. And one more thing, can you powdercoat some rims in Yamaha blue or High-viz yellow?

    Helibar HRT076-2. Will it fit GenIII ES?

    So let me get this straight, you have the privilege of having a Gen 3 ES as well as a Helibar triple tree and you want help? Why not try it and contribute your findings?

    I think I know the answer, but I don't like it, so I want a 2nd-3rd-4th opinion

    Gratz on your progress. When I was re-keying my tumblers, the fuel cap had a 6th one but it served only to hold the assembly together. It didn't have screws or anything like the saddlebags. The ignition may be the same way and only really use five. I'm guessing here since the ignition is the...

    I think I know the answer, but I don't like it, so I want a 2nd-3rd-4th opinion

    The seat lock removes from the back which requires removing the side panel which requires seat removal. Get on YouTube and start watching lock-picking videos...

    I think I know the answer, but I don't like it, so I want a 2nd-3rd-4th opinion

    Might be fun to try to pick a saddlebag lock yourself. There are 5 tumblers, three sprung one direction and two the other. Apply some constant rotational torque to the latch bar through the groove. This will pin the brass tumblers against the lock housing. Using a small screwdriver, pry each...

    My '07 feejer stopped running after dropping it off ctr stand for ride

    My '07 has NOT had the ground recall done and it's now EXPIRED. Dealer won't do it. Thankfully I haven't had any issues. I plan to check/clean all the ground spiders soon.

    mirror washer combination

    I just disassembled a new '07 mirror I have waiting to go on and it's the same layout as mcatrophy's. (())(())

    mirror washer combination

    You did it right. The washers are curved. Nest them all in each other and it's likely too loose, oppose them every-other-one and it's likely too tight. You want to oppose some of them to create a spring effect that provides adequate pressure to hold the mirror steady at 150mph but still allow...

    1st Hand Feedback Request: Scorpion EXO GT920 Helmets

    According to the sizing on Revzilla, my wife would be a medium and the XL fits her nicely.

    1st Hand Feedback Request: Scorpion EXO GT920 Helmets

    The cheek pad info came from Revzilla. Saw that when I was ordering cheek pads and thought I should mention it here.

    1st Hand Feedback Request: Scorpion EXO GT920 Helmets

    I do like the anti fog face shield. Nice and quiet too when snapped closed. The inner drop down shade could be darker. I just ordered a dark smoke face shield ($39.95) and XXXL cheekpads ($14.95) from Revzilla. Those two items should make me happy with it. Cheek pads are only interchangeable...

    1st Hand Feedback Request: Scorpion EXO GT920 Helmets

    I've had an XL for a couple of weeks now. Cheekpads were tight to the point I couldn't bite down without biting the inside of my cheeks but I feel them breaking in quickly. I will eventually be happy with it. The helmet is lighter and a bit quieter than my Gmax GM54s. I tried on an XL Shoei...

    Helmet in Saddle bag?

    I just bought an XL Scorpion EXO-GT920. It fits in either bag facing rearward with the top of the helmet facing out toward the lid. This is without a Sena clamp kit installed. I have a new one on order. I think it will still fit with a clamp kit attached but I'm very doubtful I will be able to...

    Helmet in Saddle bag?

    You're close. I think it will fit. Sit the helmet on the lid and close it. You want the head-hole facing the lid. The helmet will be on it's right side. https://www.dropbox.com/s/2tcs2z197hqnpkv/Helmet%20in%20Saddlebag.png?dl=0

    Helmet in Saddle bag?

    My XL Gmax GM54s fits with Sena SMH10 attached but only one possible way: It has to be the right saddle bag, front of helmet facing rearward, right side facing down, left side with Sena facing straight up. I stick my gloves in the helmet and carefully close it up.

    Back rests for sale

    In the picture you have the pyramid block and 4 rubber bits for a GIVI top box but not the two front mushroom bolts that come with the $20 GIVI mounting kit for that plate. Do you have those? Be nice for the buyer to be able to remove the back rest and snap on a GIVI. GIVI kit for PCA plate...
