Yamaha helped out a lot, furnishing all parts! See: https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php/topic/150205-big-shout-out-to-yamaha/?hl=%2Bshout+%2Byamaha My cost on the parts would have been over $1,300! The new owner tells me he really likes the bike and that he has joined the forum! (I...

Bike is sold! Admin, please modify the OP title to indicate "SOLD." Thanks.

Price dropped to $4,995!

I've posted some additional images of my FJR. Always garaged and, except as noted, in fantastic condition!

Bump, and thanks for the positive comments! One correction: My mistake -- there is no top bleeder on the Spiegler s/s braided brake line. One update: Now comes with a current Va Inspection.

Due to recent purchase of another bike, I'm not finding the time to ride the FJR. Therefore, the FJR is up for sale. It has 31,200 miles and I'm asking $5,495, including all farkles and OEM parts. [iMAGES TO FOLLOW, AS SOON AS I CAN FIGURE OUT A WORK AROUND FOR THE "You are not allowed to use...

I've tried to post a FOR SALE with pictures and I get the error message, "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community." My host site is Shutterfly and the image is JPEG (.jpg), 400x550, and the size is 46899 bytes. This is the image address...

My Neotec mount for the G9 looks much like that shown above on the Kawasaki site, except for 2 things: 1) I did not take the speaker wire up and over the crown of the helmet. This is actually preferred for better radio reception. Instead, I routed the wire around the back of the helmet and I...

My understanding is that the "tick," which can get so loud as to sound like a kitchen knife tapping on a stainless steel sink, is the valve tapping unevenly against the valve seat, due to an excessively worn guide. Guides and exhaust valves were replaced, along with the associated gaskets...

I've just got to give a huge thank you to Yamaha for its goodwill assistance in the repair of my "ticking" '04. My extended warranty expired more than four years ago, but Yamaha stepped up and provided all of the parts for exhaust valve guide replacement surgery. Background: I tried to...

I have had a Sargent seat for years and it has given me faithful service. It is significantly better than the stock seat on a Generation I FJR. Looked good too, as you can tell from the prior posts. I rode it on a leisurely 30-day western tour into Idaho and western Canada in 2011, but after...

I think you did absolutely the right thing by neutralizing the throttle. Additional suggestions would be to weight the pegs, even to the point of lifting slightly off the seat, and try to keep your arms relaxed. Both actions allow the bike to move around under the rider without transferring as...

For information, Garauld is currently working on a prototype for my '04. After a chance to test it out, I'll post some comments here. Good story, Bungie! The horns were probably Magnum Blasters, too.

Found it! My bad.

I completely missed the info on any group buy for Race Tech gear. Where is that information?

This sounds like a project for Garauld.

When turning the handlebars to the left, my tank bag activates the horn. Does anyone market a "horn guard" for an '04 FJR that would block contact between the tankbag and horn button? The December issue of MCN (Page 25) depicts a horn guard for the K1200GT by Wunderlich, but Wunderlich seems...
