Thank you for the compliments. I've been a member since I purchased my FJR in 2008 and have used the knowledge of members of this site to help maintain my bike. I am now retired and have a little time to give back. Thanks again to everyone who contributes and makes life easier for guys like...

I know there is already great advice and tutorials for the clutch R&R, but I thought I would add another perspective.

I know there are already great tutorials on this site, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to add another perspective on this. See attached

My father-in-law was my riding buddy. He was riding a 2015 R1200RT. We did the Columbia Ice Fields in late July of 2018. We rode on up to Jasper after leaving the Icefields and got stopped at a traffic light right at the turn in to the hotel and it started pouring rain. We were completely...

I have a "T-Bags" soft luggage that has a slot that fits over the backrest and straps that I wrap around the riders grab rails and cinch down. Usually carry around 30 pounds in it. This bag has been on multiple road trips and logged well over 50k miles with no issues.

Didn’t get a chance to see the plates. We were on a bus as they rode by.

We’re on a river cruise and stopped in Budapest for a day of sightseeing and saw a group of 9 motorcycles in town. 6 of them were FJRs.

Received an email today from Best Rest Products. They're having a sale on their tire inflators and repair kits. $20 off the tire inflator, $5 off tire repair kits.

Been a long time member, don't post much but use a lot of the knowledge that is shared by the wisdom of the forum members. Thank you to all those who contribute and make life easier when maintaining our rides. Here's a couple of pics from my last big ride in 2019 to Nova Scotia. This is the...

I had something similar happen two years ago on my 08 and did what SLK50 suggested above. It was a lot of work. I went through every connection and checked all switches and relays per the service manual. All I found was a couple of slightly corroded terminal connectors. I cleaned those up...

I have an '08 FJR with a little over 64k on the odo and just finished my third coolant flush. I've figured out a couple of tricks that make it a little easier and not as messy. I place a rag over the coolant hose down by the drain bolt so it blocks the coolant when it drains out. Then I remove...

You may need to replace the hose going to the slave cylinder. Here's my story... I don't know how relevent it is to the AE, but I am having trouble shifting from neutral to 1st on my '08 A model, without grinding it into gear (more than the usual clunk). I checked the fluid and it was nasty...

The buffeting on the wife from the stock windshield was pretty bad so I added a National Cycle V-Stream windshield. Also take the advice of getting an aftermarket seat. With these two changes we went from less than hourly stops to tank to tank if we wanted to. Enjoy!

Anyone planning on riding the 2010 Tulsa Poker Run? I know there are several members in the Tulsa area and was thinking we could meet for breakfast somewhere and then do the run. Hopefully the 100 degree temps will be gone by then. I looked at the route on the web site...

My wife and I were just planning a three day weekend trip in Arkansas and I found these web sites https://www.motorcycleroads.com/routes/Sout...AR/AR_index.htm https://www.arkansas.com/outdoors/motorcycl...sted-rides.aspx Its got a great map of rides throughout Arkansas on the right side of...

03HiYoSilver, Thanks for the reply. I have almost 13k on the odo. The only change I've made is added a GPS. It's wired directly to the battery. I have it on my winter projects list to add a power block. Thanks for the link. I'm not finished reading all of it yet but have seen at lease two...

I've got an 08 with a miss that's getting worse so I thought I'd have a look. I found the connector on the left side behind the side plastic, tucked between the water hoses that go to what I think is the thermostat. Pull on the harness and it'll come out from between the hoses. Then just pull...
