    accelerated tire wear over time

    +1 on your comments. I change my Angel GT A specs well before they need to be.....That said, I know I am extremely anal about the tires on a street bike.

    Bike #5 for me.

    Great news on the recovery and good news on the new ride !! I have heard from unnamed sources that you liked to through the FJR around hard into the corners..... If I may be so bold ....when you start to get familiar with the new wheels Sir Ken, no wheel stands for the first 1000 kms or...

    Looking at trading my 08 M109R2 for an 08 FJR...thoughts?

    NICE !!! My guess.... you may match the total numbers of kms that you put on the old bike in all of 2015, compared the how many go on the FJR clock for the remainder of 2016. Congrates and ride safe Sir Rick

    Spare key will not start my 08

    Hello to all !! I did a search, did not find what I was looking for. I have 3 keys for my 08. 2 are black and 1 red (all Yamaha for the record) The one black key I use 100% of the time will start the bike, always has. The red key will start the bike, (tried it yesterday for the first time)...

    The 2015/2016 Big FJR Tire Poll

    Installed 2 weeks ago, a Pirelli Corso Rosso on the front and an Angel GT 180 /55 on the rear. I had PR3s front and rear, prior to the "new" Pirelli combo. I liked the PR3s. For me, they were 8 outa 10. Riding level, I am right smack in the middle. Back to the tires. The Pirelli combo...

    Group buy Seat Concepts

    (Not part of the group buy) however.....A+ for seat concepts in my opinion. I was on the bike for a total of 340 kms yesterday and roughly 200 the day before. Not much for some of you people, but for me, 200 kms on any given ride, prior to the new seat install, was where (and when) the twitch...

    Traxxion Dynamics AK-20 fork cartridge kit install!!

    Smitty 141 I agree with you all the way.... I spoke with Dan at Traxxion. I went with the same AR20 up front and a Penske on the rear. Long story short, worth every penny. Not to jack the thread, but if I don't come off the gas or I don't try and brake through the corner, it almost...
