    2006 rear plastic grab bar

    I have one of those things off my '06...no painting required. EDIT: Does $100 plus shipping sound reasonable?

    Thinking of selling fjr, what do you think?

    I was confronted with the same situation about a year ago. I thought seriously about selling b/c like you I wouldn't be able to ride much. I ended up keeping mine and have only ridden a handful of times since the baby was born. My wife has been on once since the baby, but spring is coming and...

    Windscreen removal/replacement

    Took me a while to get back to this, but I thought I'd put some pics here just FYI. The pics aren't great but I think you can get the idea. Here you can see 3 screws on one lined up fairly well, but center hole is way off Still holding shield in same position there is no way the 3 screws on...

    Windscreen removal/replacement

    None of them line up. I could get 2 screws in but that left all the others out of line. They are very close but not close enough. I also tried putting the "W" bracket on, just to see, ended up chipping a small piece off one of the tabs due to the improper fit. Bought this from a forum member...

    Windscreen removal/replacement

    Is anyone aware of differences in the mounting screw locations from '06 to '08? Took my stock screen off and discovered the holes on the CalSci Gen II shield do not line up with the holes on my '06....WTF

    Windscreen removal/replacement

    Got a new windscreen, but don't know how to remove the OEM. Does the blue plastic piece snap off or are there fasteners/screws holding it? Any help/advice would be appreciated. Thanks

    selling my FJR

    Thanks for the input, db. Also, just read a suggestion on wikianswers: Offer as a condition of sale the option to return the undamaged bike within an hour of purchase. Basically buy it to ride it. Sounds good to me...might turn away some buyers though.

    selling my FJR

    I'm contemplating selling my '06...I've never sold a motorcycle before. So, I was looking for opinions on allowing test rides. Do you just hold their license and hope for the best or take some kind of deposit? I'm sure many of you have been through this process before. Thanks, Matt

    North Georgia Oct. 24-26

    Ft. Mountain was a great road as were all the others that we rode. We hope to get back there again soon...but now that we have a baby due to arrive in April that may be put on a back burner for a little while. We passed 2 blue FJRs on Saturday (maybe the same one twice), didn't get a real good...

    North Georgia Oct. 24-26

    The wife and I took a trip to North GA this past weekend to see the leaves and ride the roads. Had to ride in about 4 hrs of cold rain to get to Jasper, GA Fri night, but then we had great weather Sat & Sun. Saturday morning we headed to Amicolola Falls via GA-136 & GA-52. Then into Dahlonega...

    Buffalo River Arkansas

    Thanks for the info. Slow is what I'm looking for...but don't want to be carrying the canoe. Dates are set for the trip...just thought I'd try canoeing while I'm there. Guess I'll just have to see how much water there is...or I could just have another day for riding...hmmm.

    Buffalo River Arkansas

    Hi all, I'm planning a trip to Arkansas in Aug. and thinking about canoeing the Buffalo River while there. Anyone have any experience or information they could share on outfitters to use or best section to float? Thanks

    Wide open sweepers or tight twisties

    jetflier, I feel the same. I can take uphill curves must faster comfortably than downhill. Part of it may be the difference in the camber of the road uphill vs. downhill.
