For those wondering about fitment, this seat will work on 2006+/Gen 2+ bikes. It won't work on 2005 or earlier Gen 1s.

Your dealer is wrong, your memory is right, and you likely have a blown low beam bulb....unless you've fiddled with wiring. You might replace both H4s as they tend to go out around the same time.

Thanks for the additional information. Your first post was extremely light on detail. Sounds like possible 'Fast Starter Syndrome' to me. I wrote a thread about it years ago....here. Or WOT like RossKean mentioned.

Really hard to guess from a picture that isn't of the actual oil source. It's going to require inspection, looking for obvious sources of the leak, wiping off oil, etc. I agree that it's more likely an obvious thing like a loose oil filter, plug, or cap and would start there.

The bike must have fallen down and gone boom. Sounds about right if it's the headlight assembly studs...although I've never heard of all four popping without it being a very obvious collision. Headlight assemblies are not cheap. Assuming it's the assembly you can go check yourself at online...

Other than valve checks and rebuilding suspensions, I do all my on work on the FJR. And that's one of the big reasons I first started on the forum--the body of knowledge and tips to do those things. So, three hours and 17 hours seems crazy to me these days...I'd do it myself.

Do you know the size of the wire on that circuit is sufficient for 10 amps? I don't think anybody here does for sure. While an extra 33% juice may not smoke-check the wires....I'd go find a 7.5 amp and put the same size fuse back in it personally. And it's been a while since I did the...

I have to post here because this old thread was just ressurrected in the weirdest, most-ironic, AI way I can imagine. First, it's no secret that SPAMmers exist. We had a variety of issues on the old forum software and while it's MUCH MUCH better since the new forum owners have taken over and...

You'll void the warranty, suffer a 2 mpg hit, 5 wheel horsepower loss, and a puppy will die. Of course everybody knows the only true correct mixture is a 4 GT on the rear and 5 non GT on the front with 2 less psi than usual. What oil are you using? Inquiring minds want to know.

Assuming starter spins freely all the times you press it, fuel been in the tank for a while? Pretty warm since the last time you fueled up? It could be the switch from winter fuel to summer formulation that isn't as volatile. I know AZ is one of the states that does this.

Partially true and talked about many times before including here that I found using search.

I didn't know that one. Thank you for teaching me something new. :)

Nope! You're talking about the "UIltimate Edition" FJR that was offered in the various FJR markets the final year of their availability....and/or anniversary. The FJR remains available for purchase in the United States (and Canada)...so not offered. There is reasonable speculation that when...

There is no "General" discussion area on this forum. Other than the this thread you just started.

Did you try searching on "hitch" to see the many discussion on the subject already? I'll spot you one: =1&c[nodes][0]=57&o=relevance']Hitches on FJRForum.com
