[QUOTE="mcatrophy, post: 1257164, member: 3187"] Jay - don't get your knickers in a twist. This forum is probably the best on the planet for knowledge of the FJR and all its little issues. It also has some of the best remote friends you could ask for. Along with this there are some members who are "characters", and as with all such people, they can seem a bit abrasive at times. Put on a slightly thicker skin, hang around, you will learn a great deal about your bike and about some of the members on this forum. There are plenty who still have a GenI, there are plenty more who have had one (or more than one) and can answer many questions about them. There have been very many topics concerning heat management of the GenIs, but your specific question is probably a first, I've never heard of anyone trying this. Believe me, if anyone knew a direct answer to your question, you would have got a sensible answer. It's probably to hide their ignorance that Certain People make sarky comments, as is their way. My advice on handling such comments? Either ignore them, or, preferably, give back as good as you got. It's common for a "Newbie" to get a bit of a pasting, consider it something of an initiation into this particular madhouse. Then, if you do try the heat shield thingy, post it up here, it will be a useful and appreciated contribution to our knowledge-base. Whatever, you are welcome here (unless you become sulky, then you will be dog-piled). [/QUOTE]
