    ANNOUNCING THE 2007 YAMAHA MOTORCYCLE UNVEILING

    if Yamaha holds true to form for previous years, they'll have that puppy under the tent for the last weekend. Only too bad the KawiGTR14 probably won't make it for Biketoberfest (but there's always hope).

    replacing rear view mirror

    I'd appreciate anyone's help? I do not have a manual. I have to replace the rear view mirror (LFT) on my '05. Is there an archived thread on this? I tried to do a Search for it, but didn't get much return. :blink: How much fairing am I going to have to remove? Can the side fairing piece...

    Dealer Recommendation-Miami/Ft Lauderdale

    Parts is one thing. Service is a whole nutter. The parts dept. BMS SUCKS at times! They all say hi to me when they see me now after calling Yamaha Customer Service twice and complaining about their BS. Service is good. The mechanic (with the pony tail) has been there for about 10 or 12...

    The end of PDP

    Well, I'm sure the ZX14 is real light, but when you throw on a very stout shaft drive, some extra plastic and some bags with fugly heat management, the weight is bound to increase a bit. Hopefully not much. My local dealer was talking about how many orders they would get this year through the...

    FJR's for Sale

    Hey Harley guy (FLHX?! ;) ) no, not a demo. The dealership that has it is fond'a Honda. (Rick Case-biggest Honda (everything) dealer in So. Fl) My guess is someone rode it, and then traded it in for a Wing! Good luck...

    FJR's for Sale

    '06 AE in the showroom going on two months: Broward Motorsports... Cycle Trader talked to the guy on this one (has 60 miles). Told me they'd take 12K OTD. They have an '05 sitting behind it (12000+/-). Said he'd take 9500 (w/Yam top box and ABS.

    Tie down points

    radman, from what I've seen you write before, you do not lack intelligence. Just use your common sense, the bike will be fine. this thread may qualify for one of those "pointless recurring" things. I remember RTS going over this not long ago. I remember writing something like this: I...

    ***SPOILER*** American GP

    about twenty-five years ago -give or take- I used to be a somewhat serious cyclist. I used to own a Colgnago with all Campy Nuovo Record. On Sundays, I used to ride to lunch with a group and we would sit around and talk about the latest/greatest cycler in the US/World. When Jonathan "Jack"...

    ***SPOILER*** American GP

    Hayden won the Laguna Seca MotoGP for the second year, which pretty well establishes his position at #1 and Pedrosa will easily make up the 3 points he needed to surpass Rossi and claim the #2 spot in the standings. September is just around the corner. I got a feeling Nicky Hayden is going to...

    got my 2006 FJR1300AE

    I may be wrong, -tho' that would be unusual :P - but I don't believe a Corbin seat is going to help with the height. I tried the Corbin replacement seat that Yami sells, on my '05 and sent it back and got my $. It was too wide in the front and made it harder to flat foot. (I'm about 5'...
