    Can "tallish" people ride an FJR comfortably?

    6' 6" 34" inseam - risers, biggest CB screen with flip to get the wind over my head - stock seat for now. Since this topic has the attention of bigger people, I have a complimentary question for the same group: My shoe size is US15, 4E width and my new boots from Revzilla do not allow my toe...

    Tachometer "wiggle" at idle

    +1 that adjusting the idle up to the 1100/1200 range will resolve your reported symptoms - I added Beowulf pipes to my new to me 2009 with 700 miles on it, noticed the stalling at that point and then added a Power Commander to resolve the stalling off idle issues with no change. Then I had the...

    when the "standard" risers are not enough

    At 6'6" with a 34" inseam (ie: all torso), I had done all the forum research on the commercially available risers and decided on the Helibars at the max upright and rearward settings. However, despite the fact that I am now significantly more upright than I was before, an old football injury to...

    Have had mine on my 09 for about 750 miles over the last 8 weeks and my buddy has had his on his 06 for 1200 miles over 12 weeks. I run with the baffles in, he prefers the baffles out, but either way it is literally 30 seconds to switch back and forth. The ovals with the chrome tips are sharp...

    WTT: My CalSci XXL for your stock windshield (Gen 2)

    I also have a CalSci XXL and am 6'6" tall with a 34" inseam and am interested in further details on your assessment of the differences between the CalSci XXL and the Cee Baileys +6"? I get decent protection in the full up position from the CalSci but am still interested in pursuing a larger...

    RAM-B-342U on an FJR? (or RAM-B-176U)

    I also just ordered the MCL nut/RAM ball setup. My plan for completing the install was to order the RAM mounting kit (010-10962-00) and Motorcycle mount with integrated power cable (010-11270-03) directly from Garmin (see links below). This will allow me to switch the Zumo 660 unit back and...
