    I just received a pair of spools from T-Rex Racing.  What does that have to do with this?  Included was a red face mask!!  No joke!  T-Rex Racing Saving Bikers 1 Order at a Time.

    Downsizing ...to a Guzzi

    Congratulation Bond on your new ride, I hope you will be happy with how it rides.  Amazing how a short test ride can swing our opinion and provide us a decision.  I had a 2007 FJR and although I think the FJR's are great bikes and I really tried hard to like it, I never had the love that I...

    Saying Goodbye

    Not sure this will be of any help.  As for the hip replacement.  About 12 years ago I met a lady that was at that time about 65.  She had both hips replaced several years earlier.  After meeting me and riding a few time 2-up she decided to attend the MSF Basic, got her M endorsement and started...

    Delkevic - full system?

    Trimming 1.55% (10 lbs) off of this type of bike doesn't seem like it would be worth the money to me.  I had a 2007 model that came with Delkevic stainless cans.  The sound was OK, but I could have also enjoyed factory just as well.  For weight savings I would think a set of carbon slip-ons or a...

    Sight seeing around Cottonwood Az

    If you haven't done it as yet, South on 89A to 89 into Prescott and continue for another set of great canyon twisties down Yarnell Hill and back up (very fast 4 mile climb), then the options of 96 to Bagdad, or 96 to 10 to Skull Valley and make the loop back to Prescott.  All fine roads for 2...

    NFL Commercial and Motorcycles

    I don't watch the NFL so don't see the commercials.  If an NFL commercial appears during a non-NFL program that I'm watching I most usually will mute it and don't pay any attention.  However, your post peaked my attention so I watched your link.  I didn't see anything in it that rubbed me wrong...

    New FJR owner

    Congratulations Dale on your new to you find Gen II.  Sounds like you already have a good idea what needs to be done to make it fit better.  New fork seal with new fork fluid and some adjustment and replacing that rear tire should make it plant much better in the corners, because it is a good...

    Odometer tampering?!?

    If the odometer was set for kilometers, 60K km would only be 37K miles.

    Probably Too Offensive

    Yes this is very offensive and it makes me jealous, in my state the daily limit is 3 and possession is 6, and he has taken an entire herd!

    Video Camera recommendations

    1911 brings up a good point that we all face soon as we strap a camera on a bike, the vibrations! Nice videos by the way. Anytime a hard mount is placed to the frame or hard part connected to the frame we are going to pickup engine vibrations. In camera stabilization or stabilization applied...

    Video Camera recommendations

    If money isn't the issue, it is hard to beat the GoPro Hero 5 or Hero 7. Lots of mounting methods available and between the camera stabilizer and your chosen NLE with post stabilization you should gets very nice results.

    ECU flash for smoothness in 09 FJR?

    Some times it is how we describe an issue to others that adds to the confusion. Although you may not have a lot of other FJR owners nearby to assist, perhaps you can connect with an Beamer, Connie, or Wing driver that can ride your bike and have them compare it to theirs and have them describe...
