Thank you to the Forum and to Dave for the sale. I know that it has gone to a great new owner! Time to face the reality that I'm getting old and my reflexes and situational awareness are not what they once were. Selling my loved and well taken care of 2014 FJR ES. 24,056 Miles, Garage Kept...

Very well stated. I had a 2008 that I bought new and farkled it over the course of about 2 years and then hit a plateau as I felt it was as good as it would get for me. Then I bought a 2014 and farkled it over the course of about 2 months as I had learned what I wanted and needed from the 2008...

From Bethlehem we took 512 up through Wind Gap and then got onto 115 north. Hopped onto 209 south for a bit and then 115 north again up past Pocono Raceway and then a little bit on 903 to Nick's Lakehouse for lunch on Lake Harmony. Headed back down 115 until right before Pocono Raceway and took...

Seems like ages since the two of us were able to get out for a ride but finally the stars aligned today. Weather was beautiful. Bike showed temps range from 68 to 77 during the ride which was just about as perfect as you can get. Blue skies and no clouds. Headed out around 10am and got home at 4...

Yeah it kinda is as you say. The nuvi 765T, 775T and 785T units will pair with a bluetooth headset according to the Sena forum. The rest of the Nuvi units do not, as far as I can tell.

So from what I understand, the bluetooth in the Nuvi models only supports phone to GPS pairing (to be able to use the GPS as a hands-free speaker phone) but doesn't support GPS to headset pairing because the Nuvi units don't/won't output audio to headsets as they were made for cars and Garmin...

IMO leaking oil is always a bad sign. Based on your description of the wreck and the damage to the bike I would surprised if they didn't total it anyhow. Between the oil leak and possible (likely) frame damage I would be hesitant to accept any insurance determination that didn't total it. Oh...

I have an extra 550 mount sitting around. PM me if you want it. Just pay shipping. It's in good shape.

Agree with the others, too high and will add that I would spend a little more for a newer/lower mileage FJR if you can swing it or find a better deal for the $5500 you were willing to spend had we all said it was a great deal. 41K is really nothing on the ODO in the scheme of things but there...

From what I've seen I think high $6K to mid $7K is more realistic. Depends on your location as well as other variables. I know of an '11 with 18K miles for $7400 that hasn't moved in over a month. I sold my '08 with 16k miles, a couple of nice aftermarket farkles and also in pristine shape for...

'06 VW Passat with 2.0T engine that I bought for my daughter... "acceptable" oil consumption (per VW) is 1 quart per 1200 miles and that's pretty much what it uses.

^^^^Agree 100%. As said, unfortunately there is no way/no how to use the 550 cable with the 660/665.

Well I didn't expect the salesman to go over anything with me but he sure made a good effort. Guess he didn't know about the P position either. I admit I only read the manual for the new widgets and do-hickeys and it just didn't occur to me that they would change the ignition switch. I am...

I searched this so I apologize in advance if it's been discussed but I just learned about the "P" position on my '14 FJR quite accidentally and my first question is did the Gen 2 bikes have this too because I never ever noticed it on my '08 in the six years I owned it? I also didn't notice it on...

Sure. Always looking for new places to ride and new people to meet. My wife has an odd work schedule though that can be prohibitive to normal weekend rides and such so that's why we look so happy when we can finally get out together for a ride.

Just got back from a week trip from PA to Maine with my wife. This was the first long trip for me on the new FJR and the longest one for her on her NC700X so far. Both bikes were flawless in their performance but I would expect nothing else from an FJR. I'm proud to say that my wife is now a...

Fixed it for you.

I don't like the looks of a top-case and rarely if ever have a passenger since the wife rides her own bike. For extra storage on long trips I use the Ventura luggage system and have been a fan since owning my 2001 Blackbird. Easy on/off for the pack, securely mounted and lots of storage. Between...

It's probably choking on embarrassment. Consider it a sign from the motorcycle Gods and replace it.

I'm 6' with 32" inseam. Wind was just barely catching the top of my helmet with the shield in the fully extended position. Not terrible but I got tired of ducking down an inch. 21" was the same height C-B shield I had on the '08 but the aerodynamics and windshield geometry must be just a tad...
