Took her for a 150 mile ride today . Put a Sargent world seat on a few weeks ago I got to try out today . Then tucked her in between the T Max , ZRX1200R , and 1980 XS1100 Mid night special . here she is bag less next to grandpa Well cant post a picture . Guess photobucket is not allowed here .

Also FJ09 fit the FJR1300 . The FJ09 bags have a thinner door not allowing a helmet to fit in them . Bags are option for the 09 so if you plan on owning both you own bags already that are larger .

John are you still visiting the ZRXOA ? Don , and I talked it over tonight . He has a friend at a yamaha shop . May see if we can pull motor for them to do the trans work . Then we will re install the motor . I just dont have the time to do the work myself for Don . I'm still a 4 to 6 month...

Thanks Guys . I pulled the pumpkin . Splines are DRY but not striped or missing teeth . Little history . I met Don a month ago . His bike was in poor condition with dual blown fork seals , car tire leaking , Leaking thermostat housing , and many other items . I took on his bike . Replace...

Friends 1300 with 48,000 miles . I went , and swapped bikes with him at work to see what its doing . 4th gear roll on , and man it sounds bad . feel it in the left peg . Wouldn't do it in 3rd or 5th , but later I rolled on 1st gear pretty good . It did it in 1st as well . I was thinking...

My Shori is almost two years old . Twice I left radar detector on , and drained it completely dead to 1 volt . It came back both times . Mine lives under the rides seat with PCV / autotune module . Easy to access in all conditions . Made new ground cable / positive cable .

I like Gen 3's ( the look only ) I own a Gen 2 2012 . Bought it new in December 2011 for 14,800 plus TTL . It has been a very nice ride especially with suspension upgrades , PCV / auto tune , Muzzy exhaust / decat header . Thing that I dislike about gen 3 is USD forks , stepper motors ...

More of a quick dump of the clutch with some revs . Was testing road surface for slip to see how much I could push

Rock house Rd. / hwy 221 5 min mark to 6:35 behind truck after 13 min in Barry vil . Was the only rider in the ZRXOA that day

I own a 2012 bought new . Stock pipes were warm on my legs , and so are the muzzy pipes now . 2' of header wrap on each side mid pipe made it better . I wear full race boots / leathers . About 30 bucks for good wrap and another 10 for four good stainless steel tie straps to secure the...

Well didn't I make a mistake . It seems it is just under 50 miles . Ill need to dig around in the CD of videos from Chuck ( rider taping on FZ1 ) As we ride lots of roads from Eureka area up into Missouri , back in to Arkansas . I could swear Chuck said hey we just covered 80 miles in less...

I see that you have not spent much time @ a track racing 1/4 mile ( not a insult just little experience ) The FJR has small cams , low rev limit , and long stroke = great 1st half , but lack luster 2nd half = low mph . Yes I have taken my FJR to a dyno , just a mere 132 hp , 98 tq . I feel a...

Each cat is 15 ounces , battery was 10 lb , emissions was several pounds , lead weights on pegs / passenger heel guards , hagon rear shock is 1.5 pounds lighter than oem , R6 mirrors were 11 oz lighter each , glove box lock motor key less gas cap , seat lock ( hidden cable release now ) tool...

I have a 2 lb 5 oz 18 amp Shori in my 2012 FJR for two years no issues . Important is no static draw/drain when the bike is off . Its in the instructions/website . So a meter directly to the battery would cause a static draw that slowly drains the Li batt. Some people are not concerned...

total mile to the cabin from video start was 76 miles , ran 80 plus in the straights most of the time . After push mountain it opened up to 140 pace . through many long sweepers . 10.64 was only 3 passes , 10.70's for the first two . When you ride 9 seconds bikes often as a test rider...
