    A few favorite FJr videos Sports Mode

    Fjrscocks, Remarkable how vibration free your video is. Could you post pics of your camcorder set up. When I mount a Canon HD camcorder on handlebar ball I get unacceptable vibration.

    Where purchase mercury?

    I recently move to a new home and in the uHaul transport I lost about 1/2 of the mercury in my Motion Pro economy sync tool. Motion Pro does not sell replacement mercury and I hate to have to buy another just to get the mercury. Anyone know where I could purchase a small amount of mercury...

    No Russell's for me

    Received Russell Day-Long S3 Solo recently. Paradoxical first 200 mile impressions. Seat is both "firm and soft" Firm like Corbin but not hard like Corbin. The "wings" disperse the body weight thus alleviating the bunched up feel at the tip of the spine. Kind of like riding on a cloud. Stock...

    No Russell's for me

    OCfjr, Thanks for your descriptions of Gen 1 and 2 seats. I sold my OEM Gen 1 seats 4 years ago when I purchased Corbin. Forgot that the rear was not like rear Gen 2. Looks like I'll just need to Buy a Solo and have same pattern material covering stock rear foam.
