Hi all Late next month, a buddy and I will be riding our bikes home to Canada (Sask and AB) from Palm Springs, via UT, CO, WY, and MO. I'm contemplating adding a tail bag for extra storage (camera, snacks, water bottle, phone, etc). I'm looking for something that's easy on/easy off, but...

Hi there I ride Gen 1 (04) bike. Due to bad foot positioning on my part, I seem to have melted some of my boot heels/soles on to the pipes. Any and all recommendations welcomed for a product (or home remedy) to get this gunk off and restore the shine. Thank you. Greg Basky Saskatoon SK CANADA

I'm looking for a medium to large sized tank bag in great condition - cortech or nelson riggs ideally, but will consider other brands if they are good fit on FJR tank. Message me with pics, using the Forum or sent text (306-370-9446) or email ([email protected]) Greg Basky Saskatoon SK CANADA

I posted on this topic earlier, but a recent 5000km trip through AB and BC added more detail to my earlier description of problem: - Problem seems limited to riding in hot weather (>30 degrees Celsius) - Hesitating/bogging down doesn't happen at constant speed, cruising at highway speed -...

Hi folks Looking to invest in pair of bag liners for my 04 FJR. I'm considering offerings from Ceebaileys or Kathy Journey Designs - both around $100 mark. Please share any and all advice, based on your experience with either product. Conversely, if there's strong case to be made for...

Hi there Did spring oil change yesterday, as I prepare to bring my 04 out of hiberation. But when I checked today, there's single drop underneath bike, but on right hand side, away from where I was working. Drip appeared to come down from ('tho not out of) this x-shaped protruding thing...

Snows melting and starting to make plans for early season road swing. I've been running Battlax, but they seem to wear rather quickly. What have others found to be most durable/highest mileage rubber out there? Thanks Greg Basky Saskatoon SK CANADA

Hi fellow FJR'ers... Can anyone shine any light on this behaviour by my bike (an '04 that had 58,000kms when I bought it in June and now has 68,000kms). I have never run into this riding on the highway but it has happened several times towards the end of longer cruises, with stop and go...

Hi there I'm still learning the ins and outs of my first FJR, an '04 with 58,000 kms that I bought this spring, then thoroughly enjoyed on two 5000km road trips. Couple of lighting/replacement bulb related questions that I cannot sort out from my owners manual or from talking the parts desk at...

Am hoping other owners can offer some tips or suggestions here. I don't have particularly large hands but I have a helluva time getting tire gauge in to measure pressure and/or air hose to top up pressure -- particularly the ones with angled heads that seem to be popping up at all gas stations...
