    Defeated by Rear Dunlop RoadSmart

    I used clamps to squeeze the sides of the tires together so the bead stays in the channel in the center of the rim.

    What do you store under the seat?

    I don't know about where you live, but that's how the word "Russian" is pronounced 'round heah.

    What do you store under the seat?

    Standard FJR survival kit contents: one forty-five caliber automatic; two boxes of ammunition; four days' concentrated emergency rations; one drug issue containing antibiotics, morphine, vitamin pills, pep pills, sleeping pills, tranquilizer pills; one miniature combination Russian phrase book...

    My lovely ex-wife had horses. I don't miss any of them.

    Throttle transition problem

    Somebody will be along soon to tell you you need a Power Commander, but I'd try new plugs, a throttle body sync, and verify that the idle is 1050 RPM.

    Conductive grease

    This sounds like a better option for protecting the ground spider plugs than non-conductive dielectric grease: https://www.altex.com/Product3.aspx?ProductId=144963

    Any Bay Area FJRer's w/ aftermarket seats?

    Sliding forward shouldn't be a problem. You should be sitting on the front part of the seat anyway.

    Anyone need a BMW?

    Reasons NOT to purchase Power Commander V ?

    Decel popping is a function of the emissions control system. It's a normal occurrence.

    Let your FJR BREATHE!! Open up the Intake!!

    My Dad's Ford LTD with the big-block V-8 benefited nicely from that! Right up until I forgot to flip it back over when I brought the car home.

    Yamaha Sales Predicted Down 20%

    As a side note, Suzuki is sucking wind even worse than Yamaha. They only produced four models with 2010 model year designation (3 dirt bikes and the GZ250), since their dealers are all still loaded with 2009 and earlier inventory that Suzuki crammed down their throats...

    Yamaha Sales Predicted Down 20%

    One of the biggest factors is tightened credit. Many people that want to buy are unable to obtain financing approval. That won't change in the forseeable future.

    Time for a colonoscopy?

    That was the worst gallon of lemonade I ever had. Then they said "we're just giving you a light anesthetic" and I woke up in the car on the way home.

    Great Ride in NE Washington until...

    Wow. Glad to hear they'll be OK.

    Asleep at the handlebars?

    I found that when I get bored and a little sleepy on a long ride, it helps to pull out my cell phone and surf the internet. In fact that's what I'm doing now and (*^%*&0@$#sdf*&( +++ NO CARRIER

    Replacing my hour long stock seat

    There are two schools of thought on this. One group installs handlebar risers, and then immediately starts complaining about the windshield and seat. The risers put your head up higher, away from the shield, and put your weight back on your tailbone. The other group learns to use the "Master...

    Swing Arm Pivot Cover

    I'm thinking a sink hole cover may be too big. Waaaay too big.

    Been missing...

    "Harley riders bouncing up and down on their Night-Rods...." That sounds tough on the Hemo-Rods.
