    Wrist pain after 3 hours

    RedRiderMN, you said you moved your handlebars to a more forward position. Does that mean you moved them away from you or towards you? Did you use a handlebar lift kit? If so, can you share which one? And did you install it yourself? I've struggled with my arms going numb for a few years now. I...

    2013 FJR Rear Shock

    Thanks for the information. I'm away from home right now but I'll look at it, check the spring setting and damping. Can you tell me if the bearings and linkage can be checked without disassembling it? Thanks.

    2013 FJR Rear Shock

    I don't know what's wrong with it but the back of my bike has very little support from the shock and it bottoms out easily. I didn't think the OEM version was rebuild-able

    2013 FJR Rear Shock

    I've got a 2013 FJR with 53000 miles that I bought used about 6 years ago. I've wanted to make some changes to my suspension because my ride is not great. I checked my rear shock and it needs replacing. I've looked online and it doesn't look like Yamaha has a stock replacement anymore, not that...

    Cyclops Aux Lights

    Thanks for the tip about contacting Darryl at Cyclops. He is out of town right now but I got a note back from Brian. My next question is has anyone mounted lights to the fender bolts that thread into the fork tubes? Or do you know any better ways to mount light to the fork tubes?

    Cyclops Aux Lights

    Does anyone have any experience with Cyclops CIL-OPR110/20 and the Skene Dimmable controller?  I'm looking at adding some auxiliary lights to my bike and I like what I've found so far on these lights.  I'd like to mount these on the forks or disk brake mounts if possible.  Any info would be...

    Shoei Neotec 2 Sizing

    So exactly 2 weeks and my new Shoei Neotec 2 Excursion TC-3 helmet showed up in perfect shape. I had checked out the sizes at my local shop and I'm glad I did. I saved $150 and my new helmet fits great. Bill, thanks for the information on Chromeburner.

    Shoei Neotec 2 Sizing

    Ordered my Neotech 2 high viz from Chromeburner today. I went down to our local shop and tried them on so I could see just what size fit well. Saved $144 dollars. Bill / Adam; how long did yours take to arrive after ordering?

    Outdoor cover needed for this summer, recommendations?

    I emailed Nelson Rigg about the size of the cover in the compression bag. They replied the next day with; 7" in diameter bag, 10" long and weighs 4 lbs. That seems a little large for taking while touring. Anybody use something that packs smaller that they like?

    Outdoor cover needed for this summer, recommendations?

    The Nelson Rigg Defender Extreme looks good. I'm just not sure how big it is to travel with. Anyone know?

    Lesson learned: Go easy on the key when opening/closing panniers!

    How about locks that get sticky or bind up? After riding in the rain for a few hours, the locks on my bags were very difficult to turn. What's the recommended lubrication for the locks?

    Givi SR357 vs E228M mount; which is better?

    Everything I ordered from Motostorm arrived yesterday. Still can't believe I got it in less than 2 weeks from Italy and saved money.

    waterproof gloves

    For cooler weather I wear a pair of TourMaster insulated & water resistant gloves. In warmer weather, I stretch Nitrile gloves over my thin riding gloves. You need to find the XL size.

    Givi SR357 vs E228M mount; which is better?

    I'm planning to add a top case (Givi V47NN Monokey Top Case) to my 2013 FJR and I'm trying to figure out which mounting plate to use. It looks like several of you used the SR357 but I also found the E228M bracket and that seems like a simpler solution for mounting. Am I missing something? Is one...
