    Motorcycle For Sale It’s Time to Hang it Up

    As some of you know, I have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease and I’ve come to the reality that it’s just not smart to ride motorcycle anymore. Especially a big bike like the FJR. I’ll now cut to the small chase and to the bike. 2014A 3,475 miles, Canyon Cages front and back, Givi top...

    Time To Hang It Up

    Thanks skooter. Where did 20 years go? I always enjoyed reading your posts. To this day, I still wonder where you got the time to ride so darn much! Back inn the day.... there wasn't a day gone by without checking in on the FJR Forum. Those were good times. By the way....wtf did all...

    Time To Hang It Up

    Hi folks, I've been a member of this forum since the early days. Even going back to the first FJR Forum in 2004. Not so much in recent years. My riding time has dwindled, and two years ago I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Now after 20 years and three FJR's it is with heavy heart...

    As has been said....have a fantastic trip. Oh, and thank you for the perspective wake up call. I needed it brother. Just ride the heck out of that fine looking motorcycle.

    New 2014

    Concur with the comment "you'll love the bike" I've had an 04 and also an 06, which I recently traded in on a 2014. The difference is absolutely remarkable. The bike has become so smooth and refined, and yet just doing everything so much better than ever before. I just can't say enough about...

    Canyon cage install

    Very easy one person operation to install. I hope I never need them, but I think they look terrific on the bike. Well made, high quality construction. Very pleased. Highly recommend the product. Hopefully the saddlebag guards will be off backorder soon. Thanks for helpful comments , sorry...

    Canyon cage install

    A few weeks ago took the plunge and traded my 06 in on a new 2014 FJR1300A. I had actually ordered the Canyon Cages before I got the bike. Unfortunately they were on back order for quite some time. Today, they finally arrived. Although I think a few pictures would have been helpful in the...

    Revzilla.com

    Revzilla is by far the best internet company that I have ever done business with regardless of product type. All internet companies should model themselves after Revzilla. Yeah, they're that good. Nuff said.

    RG sliders from my 06 on a 2014?

    Thanks Fairlaner-I had a hunch that was the case, but was hoping to get lucky. At least my seat will work.

    RG sliders from my 06 on a 2014?

    I looked, but could not find the specific answer. I have the RG Sliders on my 06 and was wondering if they would fit on the 2014 which I hope to pull the trigger on in a month or two. It would be nice to be able to just transfer these over instead of having to spring for a new set. Thanks guys

    New '14 FJR

    Congratulations. Color is a personal preference, but for me that red with black accents is the best to date. Enjoy it.

    Does 2006 Sargent seat fit 2013?

    There. Easy, peasy....Japan-esy. Thank you, my friend.

    Does 2006 Sargent seat fit 2013?

    Thank you, but I had already read that. I didn't seem to see where the seat was addressed one way or the other, unless I am just flat out missing it, which is altogether possible. Unless...it is in the omission of a seat discussion that one is to assume that the 06 seat will work. I guess I...

    Does 2006 Sargent seat fit 2013?

    Before I get yelled at....I did try to search this question out, but to no avail. I'm finally thinking of spending the bucks and buying a new Sagent seat for my 06 FJR. Then.....I started reading about the 2013 and have thought about the possible aquisition of one of these sweet new rides. So...
