    Side Bag Liners

    I'm looking for a set of side bag liners. If anyone has a set that aren't being used let me know. I use mine a lot and they are starting to fray at the seams. Can't complain, I've beat them up pretty good for the last 10 years. Thanks

    Right Hand Headlight Socket melted from those pretty bright bulbs

    I was replacing the headlights and noticed that the right hand socket is melted. Stealer said it's an assembly at $600+ for a new harness. He told me clip the wires and bring it in and maybe they can find me one that'll fit. I'm throwing this out to the collective just to see if anyone in the...

    My Baby shut down in mid flight.

    On my way to MacDill AFB in Tampa to do a job from Sanford. It was running like a piece of silk until the engine cut off momentarily a few times in mid flight and then just shut down. I pulled over and it started just fine until it did it again 4 times and now it'll start just fine but, in a...

    Deltran Battery Tender Lifespan

    I need your experiences with the Deltran Battery Tender. My second one just stopped working. What's the average lifespan that you guy/gals are getting out of yours? It seems too short to me. Thanks in advance.

    Final Drive Oil

    I Googled every word combination I could think of to @FJRForum.com and didn't find what I was looking for. I remember seeing a few discussions in the past about all the inexpensive equivalent alternatives for our final drive oil. Can anyone please throw a few out there? I refuse to pay $24 for...

    ABS light stays lit

    My ABS light comes on at start up and doesn't go out with the rest of the dash lights. Bike is standing still the whole time. At a certain point it'll go out all by itself but, it'll do the same thing at the next start up. I've ridden the bike and I have no issues with the ABS system. Any...

    Shout out to ScooterG!

    Scooter, I completely understand that some one in your position probably isn't in "the loop" but, is there anyway at all for you to ask a guy who might know a guy about the possibility of the GenIII AE version coming to the US? Pleeeaaassseee!!! :)

    Idle Speed Adjustment Question

    Ok, This thing started stalling out in mid flight when I'd let the throttle loose while coming to a stop. It starts right up again but, It'll quit again at the next stop. My idle speed is 1000rpm and it would creep slowly to 750-ish and creep back to 1000. It wants to stall even when in idle. No...

    Tail light bulb

    I looked in the bin 0 facts and the service manual and couldn't find the generic part number for the bulb. Can someone please provide that to me? I'm at the dealership and they don't have one in stock and they don't have the generic part number either. Thanks

    Need some expertise on a Fork Stem Bearing issue

    I got a set of PR4's installed at the dealer today and I was told my bearings are bad. They lifted the front tire off the ground and told me to turn my handle bars from side to side. There is a spot at dead center that feels like a notch. I've felt that for a while. Didn't think anything of it...

    I must have Fried something. Bike won't start

    I think my EOM trip is toast. Here's the problem. I bought a Tom Tom Rider 2nd Edition GPS. I read one guy's review and he said it was wonderful but, if you leave it on it will kill the battery. Not being an electrician, I assumed that if I just make sure I turn it off, I'll be OK. Looks like I...

    To All Smuggler Owners! Need a Favor!

    Hello All. I finally scored a Smuggler. I sent it to Garauld to get painted. He told me its missing the Center Locator Pin that goes into the hole in the frame to keep it in place. I called Corbin and they do not sell the pins be themselves. What Garauld needs is the exact dimensions of the pin...

    Escort Visual Alert?

    I've been reading about radar detectors and GPS's on other threads. Many years ago I saw someone post up about a device that you can plug into the audio jack of an escort radar detector. It's a cord about 3 or 4 feet long that when it hits on a radar signal. An LED lights up visually. You could...

    Got a Code SH_48 today!

    Stopped at the BK Steak House for lunch. Got back on the bike turned the key and got the code. Shifter wasn't doing anything. It was in first gear. Twisted the throttle and the tyranny wasn't engaged. Shut it off, took the key out and put it back in again and all was normal. Is this something to...

    What's the average life of a battery?

    Let me start by saying that I have it on the Battery Tender often and its always topped off. Went to start my bike this morning and Nothing! No clicking, No Nothing! Cycled through all the usual suspects. Side stand switch, kill switch, etc, etc. Still Nothing. Attached my battery tender to the...

    Ohlins Rear shock Installation on a GenII

    I was Lucky enough to win the Ohlins Shock at the EOM. I Googled the subject and have all the Procedures that have been posted up but, they are all Gen I procedures. They all have one thing in common. None of them have details on how to get easy access to the Upper Bolt. It looks like a Bear to...
