    Jake Wilson/ Rocky Mountain ATV

    I've been dealing with Rocky Mountain Atv and motorcycle for years. Their prices have always been decent, shipping fast and had great luck with their "off brand" called Tusk. Racing dirt bikes gets expensive, their prices made it a little less painful. They opened a street bike orientated...

    I read on the forum about various automotive oil filters that fit the FJR and have been using them. I discovered today that the filter for my Honda Accord (also most other models ecept the S2000) fits fine. I buy them 10 at a time from Manchester Honda.com for about $45. They're even blue

After reading a review in "Motorcycle Consumer News" that was part of a whole bunch of FJR info, I bought a Laminar lip and added it to the top of my Yamaha opitional taller windshield.
