Due to vision issues I have only ridden a few hundred miles this year. Not knowing when or if the problem will be resolved, I've decided to give someone else the opportunity to enjoy this fine motorcycle. 18500 miles on the clock Michelin PR2's @ 50%+ remaining tread Givi V46 top case/mount...

All the stuff that came with it and in the original package. $165 shipped (USPS Priority-US only)

I noticed this fastener under the FJR today. I didn't see any immediately obvious places it could have come from. Could've migrated there from the messy fringes of my garage but I figured I'd ask anywho.

It has been brought to my attention that the '03 models use the same length lever pivot screw for both the brake and the clutch. I've confirmed this at Yamaha's online parts fiche. If anyone with an '03 installed the pivot screws, the short screw will have little or no threads extending from the...

Stopped by the local dairy isle for refreshments and spotted a silver FJR. Anyone on here?

I picked these up at Walmart a few weeks back and had a chance to check them out this weekend. They work pretty darned good. Can't say how well they'll hold up but for < $4/pr I guess they can be replaced occasionally.

I managed to sneak off to southern Ohio for a bit. Just a tick under 46 mpg and scores of dead insects. I'm really liking the Stradas and the FJR's ability to keep them on the pavement when the surface turns to crap. Here's a if you have some time to kill. Not a total waste if you're an Allman...

Rigged this up for my Flip video camera

I have made a set of tools for servicing the FJR rear drive unit. These perform the same function as Yamaha p/n's 90890-01229 / YM-01229 (pinion bearing retainer wrench) and 90890-04050 / YM-04050 (gear holding tool). They allow you to remove the coupling and bearing retainer. Although the...

The wife and I took a spin on Saturday, so I decided to try out the Corbin that came with my FJR. First things first, I don't like the way it looks and it's a b1tch to get off with the Givi rack installed. That being said, after a couple of hundred miles it became obvious to us both that it was...

Took a sweltering 300 mile ride today and discovered a small puddle of gear oil had leaked within minutes of returning home. Then a second puddle after I parked the bike in the garage. It appears to have come from a drain hole in the swingarm. After it had cooled some I checked the level and it...

I considered pulling the wheels myself and taking them to the dealer to have the new Pirellis installed. A lazy streak came over me and I decided to instead take the bike to the dealer. When I picked it up today, the tech informed me that the recalled TPS hadn't been replaced and he installed a...

This was wrapped around my Ram mount. It's about 17/32" diameter and one of the connections is putting out 13V. Any idea what it fits?

OK, let's try this again. Same as the deceased bike with the addition of a Corbin seat, Givi topcase and bar risers. Nearly identical mileage and condition. I also got the oem seats and luggage rack. I am pleased. Ok,ok...I'm more like a kid on Christmas morning! Now if you'll excuse me, I feel...

Related post Talked to the insurance adjuster today. The FJR is so close on repair cost/value that they left it up to me. If I take the total loss route and buy another bike within 30 days ($500 deductible-they reimburse sales tax and title costs) I will just about break even on the purchase...

Thankfully, I walked away without a scratch. I was riding in Western Maryland Saturday and managed to find some greasy pavement...which led to an encounter with a ditch...which led to this: Hopefully it can all be resolved quickly...prime riding season is short here. :glare:

First, thanks to all the folks who have provided their customized maps and wealth of information on this subject. Last week I did the TBS, TPS adjustment and checked for connector problems, but still had surge issues. I installed the PCIII today and tried the -001, -008 and -bonestock maps. The...

I thought the oem's looked pretty good for 6K, but closer inspection proved otherwise so new skins moved to the top of the priority list. Would switching to a 60 series front tire be an issue? I'm installing Koubalinks and thought the reduced diameter might be beneficial.
