    Side Panel Repair

    A photo of the damaged parts would be useful. I've used a soldering iron with a clean tip to "weld" the broke pieces together. Pretty easy to do - outside. I would send you some ABS filler rods gratis if you PM me your address info.

    Trunk lid retention mount broke, repair options or suggestions?

    The broke parts are made from ABS. Do you have the missing pieces? You may be able to use a special glue to put them back together although I have had good luck repairing cracked lids using a soldering iron and ABS filler rods to "weld" them back together.

    Garauld Accessory Catalog Showcase

    Not that I know of. I have some suitable paint here (most model years) that I would sell cheap but I looked into shipping it and it turned into a big hassle so if someone wants to coordinate that using their business account or pick it up here then send me a PM.

    AFAIK, there has only been one subframe failure reported by a rider (passx) while using a stiffy kit: Passx note Aluminum does not have a fatigue limit so the cast subframe will eventually fail given enough stress cycles. I believe stiffy kits can substantially prolong the life of the stock...

    Hi. The original intent was to reinforce and stiffen the the aluminum subframe back there to reduce movement (bouncing) that could contribute to a fatigue failure of the cast aluminum subframe. A second benefit would be to contain the disconnected parts were a failure occur. What did the...

    Scraping Highway Pegs

    I have been supplying the pegs with thin washers placed on each side of the peg stub at the pivot. These should provide a more-consistent friction effect to allow a finer adjustment to keep the pegs up or down. If you want a set, just PM me with your address and I will send them to you...

    Parts For Sale FJR Touchup paint For Sale

    Thanks for your well-wishes. I am playing around building some other projects like BowzerBot - an autonomous robotic dog that could prowl around the yard to scare the deer (and neighbors) away - kinda like Roomba but with barks. o_O
