No passenger and the top box was not overloaded to any great degree. I did go off my route at one point to avoid a heavily frost heaved and potholed road only to be faced with a bridge under construction where the first 3 feet of pavement at each end was at a much lower grade that the bridge's...

I returned from a ride yesterday and noticed that the plastic mounting bracket that the OEM top box mounts to is failing. The plastic is cracking at the center mounting bolt, this is my second 05 FJR and has 27,100 miles. I did not have a top box on my first FJR. Is this a common issue and...

I'm riding out to western PA this weekend via PA Rt. 6. My understanding is SR 187 south to Wysox PA from NY Interstate 17/86 is closed due to flooding. Looks like my best bet is to continue west on Interstate 17/86 and pick up Rt. 220 south to North Towanda PA to PA Rt. 6 west. Does anyone...

Looking for a Gen 1 stock shock with low miles in good condition.

Tell ya what; if my good friends serving with the Mass State Police ever start using this bike on the turnpike, which I travel often; those of us who "can't drive 55" are screwed... :blink:

I will take $ 150 plus shipping for my 05 seat that is in perfect condition. Let me know. My Own Rocket Western Massachusetts

Took the plugs out, inspected and cleaned, they looked fine. I get paid this week so I will buy new this weekend (all my other $$ goes to gas, oil and filters :) )

05 FJR abs; purchased in Sept 05 with 1,900 miles; now has 12,400 miles. At start up / warm up I can clearly hear something missing, not every time the bike is started but definitely now and then. It is almost like a burping noise from the motor; when doing a tbs a while back it was very...

Pumkin Center Campground on the TN side of the Dragon; showers could use updating but ya can't beat cold beer on tap just steps from your tent. Pulled in there last fall after a 600+ day. Jodi the owner says "cold beer on tap" I says "Is this heaven?" Oh yea; routes. If you are sick of the...

"10K sounds a lot better" + 1 Bought my 05 abs for $ 10,500; farkled out with corbin saddle, k&m air filter, moto lights, piaa bulbs and 1,900 miles in Sept 05.

I have the same issue on my 05; brake real hard and the abs light will flash until you turn the bike off/ on. This has also happened when taking one of those handy highway off ramps at speed at an extreme lean angle; light flashes until bike cycles off / on. I have even tried to lock up the...

The speedo read 135 on my 05 fjr (with the bags on); I heard a description of traveling real fast on a bike as "like having sex in the middle of a hurricane; it feels great, very enjoyable but with an elevated sense of risk and danger"

I use a nelson rigg dust cover in the garage; its cotton and breathes so it can be thrown over right after a ride no problem; also a nelson rigg uv 1/2 cover when touring.

I completed the same farkle on my bike (05abs) minus the pelican case; I used a 1/4 inch thick aluminium plate 11 X 14 with a series of large and small holes. Quick release straps hold my tent, sleeping pad and sleeping bag leaving the side bags free for heavy stuff. I was camping in Vt. a few...
