I have one of those aluminum racks for sale. I have the 50L top case as well in silver (it's scratched but not broken). I have not come on the forum in a while, but happen to see this post. Send me a PM if you're interested; I'm in BC Canada. Cheers

The Triumph Trophy SE 1250. Just as reliable, way more comfy, fully loaded with all the electronics, good on gas, good price. But it is less sporty/peppy than the FJR. It depends what you're looking for. For me i want a good tourer that is comfy for my wife as a pillion, and that's reasonably...

Where does the Rambone go?

Interested in the seats. Sending PM.

Different people have different reasons. Don't judge In my case, even though I don't need to flat foot, I want to be extra stable when my wife is on the back because of she ever gets hurt getting off she may never get back on; so I'm taking zero chances.

I lowered the front by sliding the forks up 1/2". I lowered the back 3/4" by changing the links. I then had to straighten the kickstand (with a forge/blowtorch) to keep a proper lean. It was well worth the effort. No adverse effect on handling or leaning.

A suggestion for the next CFR: Have group-ride sign up sheets. Just a blank form with spaces for route & meet time, and a few names. The thing is it's hard to find a group to join of you don't know anyone. So that would really help. The other huge benefit is you then meet a few nice people *at...

Deborah & I finished our tour and made it home today. It was a memorable trip. Thanks to the organizers; but especially Jeff 'Grande', 'Good' Jeff & Lucie for making us feel so welcome. Hope we get to see you in the not-to-distant future.

Sounds awesome. Thanks for sharing.

Cool FastJoy. I fished your e-mail out of the spam box. The Lodge is full ATM, but I asked them to call me when one of the cancellations (Jeff's?) comes through.

Well, I just registered Just waiting for the info/confirmation e-mail now. See you all in 2 weeks.

Just discovered this event and I'm considering attending with my wife. But never been to one of these. Not sure what to expect. Any room left? Is there a list of rides? Are the rides organized? Is there a schedule?

No used ones, so just ordered one from Yamaha.

I got me a 39L Yamaha top case (used, thanks Gazelle). I think it'd be wise to replace the plastic rack so the sub-frame doesn't crack. So I'm looking for one. Just thought I'd check here before buy new from Yamaha. I have a 2007 Gen 2. I'm in Alberta Canada.

Dave, I'm in Canada as well. How hard is it to import a US bike? And to change display to Km/h?
