Put on garuald's rack and took the side bags off yesterday. Put on a small cooler type thing which is enough to hold my stuff, pressure gauge, bungies, misc stuff, etc. Made for easier cleaning, looks great, but the thing that I seemed to notice more was it seemed to handle better. I think it...

Been over 20 years since I have been caught speeding. Now I have been nabbed twice in two weeks. First I was going 44 in a 35, LEO let me off with a warning and requirement to show I had valid insurance (I did, just didn't have the card on me). Second was a couple days ago, 50 in a 30, must have...

Received it only a couple days after making payment. Just put it on. Excellent piece of work, color match is perfect, fit and trim is perfect, quality is outstanding. Looks like it is an integral part of the bike, doesn't look like after market. Thanks gaurald. Mike

I was speed shifting the bike thinking that was making the shifting smoother. I found out tonight that I can shift the bike out of 1st to 2d, 2d to 3d without using the clutch. It is smooth as silk, both upshifts and down shifts. Anyone else notice this? I know this can't be good for the bike...

How hard is is to remove and replace the side bags? The "kid" putting the bags on had a somewhat of a difficult time, though not that bad really, putting them on. Should they be a "snap" to take off and put on? Or do they take some "maneuvering?" Mike

What is the size of the socket needed for the head bolt and the torque? Also, what is the torque for the handle bar bolts? I am getting some major noise which seems to be coming from the front end, some sounds like loose tupperware, some sounds like loose bolts where the creaking comes from...

Don't waist your money, it isn't needed, unless your dealer is so screwed up the screwed them up or they come that way from japan, which I doubt. I went to a dealer (a mech I trusted). The service rep said not to come back until 1500 miles and that the throttle bodies wouldn't need to be...

There is a part that is welded that seems to be for the adjustment of the driver seat. It restricts the raising of the tank from the front so you can get to the throttle bodies (which would be a good idea to put tubes from those bodies, tie them off and cap them so it would be easier to adjust...

I screwed up on the topic, I'm not asking myself the question, this is addressed to you all but I can't seem to figure out how to edit the topic, anyway.... What average rpm's do you run in, before you shift, around town, in cruise, etc? I am at my 600 miles, so I will be running rpms over...

I checked the oil using the sight glass and it is either filled to the brim which the glass does not show it to the second dot, or it is empty. Looks more like it is filled. I watched the mech during the oil change and he filled it, ran it for a bit and filled it to the second mark. Now I can't...

the smuggler's trunk from corbin on the 06 feejer? Same question regarding the glove box on the back of the passenger back rest. I want something that I can throw my glasses and gloves in quickly, maybe a couple of other small things. Mike

Nice write up in that mag, though it was an 05 it virtually convinced me to buy the 06 fjr. I was looking at a full tourer (Goldwing) but the price I can get for the FJR $11995 for the A before tax, tag and license compared to the way honda has priced me out of the the market (could afford the...

Just talked to baker boys yamaha in OKC and was just told if I was looking for an 05 FJR he could get me one, with only 55 miles. https://www.bakerboysokc.com/
