Price dropped to $6,000 here and at ADV. Rather make a deal here than sell it on eBay. Make me an offer. Email: RanchoBob at gmail.

Thanks, guys. Appreciate that.

I put thousands of miles on the Electrosport with it driving the HIDs, PHIDS, grip heaters and my jacket liner. Dunno, but no issues for me. FWIW, I am including the OEM stator as well.

Yeah, you're right, I should strip off the farkles but I'm just not ready to do that. I figure someone will come along who wants a turnkey bike and I'm not stuck on six grand. I just kinda looked at Cycle Trader to see where things were and put it there. Hope springs eternal. Oh. It's got...

Photo of the dash. Thanks for looking. :)

Thanks, Cav. Really going to miss having this baby in the garage.

Hate to sell, but I've put a R1200GSA in the garage and the FJR just doesn't get ridden enough anymore to justify keeping her. I'm starting with an ad here before I go to the world because I got so much help from this forum. Not giving her away, but don't feel like I'm being outrageous in my...

Heh. Definitely not. Most of the time I prefer to ride/drive my vehicles into the ground. That said, my wife has told me that if I sell my old M3 ragtop (which can't pass smog without spending more on it than it's worth), my XR600R (plated) and her Ninja 250 I can add a BMW 1200 GS Adventure...

*mutter mutter mutter* Oh well. Great in concept.

Interesting. Does my theory hold up? Is the Gen 2 cooler than Gen 1? If so, what would be involved in a retrofit? Pump, fuel pipe, injectors....

Strange. I'm used to my groin getting cooked by a hot tank, but never considered surgery. ("Ballectomy." Ouch. I thought the vasectomy was unpleasant enough.as an option.) *head scratch* I'm convinced part of the problem is that fuel is pumped from the fuel tank to the injectors and back into...

The oil has quite a few miles on it. Might as well change it now, eh? Suggestions on where I can get a new glove box for the bike? The lid got ripped off quite a while ago and I might as well put it back in. Kinda handy on occasion. Thanks!

Yeah, I'm a bit behind on some maintenance, but the only thing I really must do is change the engine and fork oil. Thanks!

I'm going to be taking the FJR on a longish (1,100 mile) road trip and was thinking I should go through her from stem to stern and make sure all is well before I hit the road. Suggestions as to what I should check in particular or any links to lists? Haven't had much luck with my Google Fu...

Leather is slick and I'd go a different direction if I had it to do again. I'd give velour a shot before I went with vinyl, though. Of course, if you get velour you should probably consider painting your bike avocado or harvest gold. :D Rancho

I'm not sure how the Corolla can be at fault if I'm reading the article right. They were both going the same direction and the Corolla made a (presumably) legal U-turn when there was no oncoming traffic. The Cirilla driver just didn't anticipate someone trying to pass him. Right? Amazing he...

So I've decided to install my Electrosport this weekend and bumped into an issue, perhaps. Regarding orientation, there are 5 main holes (so to speak) and one small hole. (Thank dog I'm not posting this on Friday.) Is there importance in the orientation other than the wires not getting hit by...

Yeah, I figure I'd throw it out to the collective wisdom before I gave up my hard-earned dough. I may try some dialing for dollars to salvage yards before I go the dealer route. It'd be really nice if the latch was a serviceable part, huh? It's the only multiple obscenity thing that's gonna...

Anyone have one laying around they'd let go cheap? Thanks! Rancho

I stripped mine out completely when I tried taking them out and alternate solutions didn't work. I ended up taking it to a welding shop I have a relationship with and they got it out. Ya gotta wonder wtf is going on at the factory that they torque everything that high and put red loctite on...
