    2012 Z1000 w/ factory extended warranty, $7000 obo Atlanta

    Selling my beloved Z1000 because she hasn't been seeing any use since I got the '14 FJR ES. She's got the factory extended warranty until 6/17 and can be extended another 1 or 2 years. Serviced at the dealer under a maintenance plan and is up-to-date. Never dropped or crashed but I did do a 2nd...

    Mode switch

    So at a bit past 17,000 miles on my '14 I noticed the Mode switch. Rolling down the road pressing it repeatedly I don't notice anything happening. At a stop light I press it a bunch more times and notice the flashing between T & S on the dash. Shoot, which mode have I been in all this time? Put...

    Re-living EOM '09 for Memorial Day Weekend

    After our last trip to Bryson City, I told my wife that I'd like to get back to Johnson City to re-experience some of the rides I did during the 2009 FJR Eastern Owner's Meet. Particularly the area around Big Stone Gap as that was the first place I'd ever scraped a peg. If it weren't for that...

    How to get started?

Called them up earlier this week to say I wanted an ES and would come in on Saturday. Well, I get there and...

    Sat for a long time, have her starting but she doesn't keep running.

    I've got an '07 AE that has been sitting for a couple years. I've put in fresh plugs and fresh gas and she starts under WOT but will not continue to run if I let go of the throttle. I used a throttle lock to keep her going around 1K RPM for 15 minutes or so last night and when I went back to the...

    Picked up a present on EOM-6

    I road EOM-6 yesterday, and I think you guys must have pissed off the residents of Hobbs Lane -- the road posted "Dead End" that wasn't -- because they had a little present waiting for me: Thankfully I had a repair kit, just wish I'd purchased the version that didn't require removing the...
