Alan You are correct in saying it does not find the root of the problems but when I bought the 2008 FJR (only because I like black) I was so unhappy with the bike because of the whobble, had I rode tested it before I bought it I wouldn't have bought it. Long story but now I'm happy with the...

Replace the roller bearing in your head with tappered bearings, fixed my 2008 FJR, e-mail me if you need more information

I agree the battery minder is the only way to go, I own five of them and some I have some on big equipment which stay on for over a year sometime before I use or start the machines. Battery Tenders I have owned one and they will boil a battery dry if you leave them on for weeks or months. The...

It's not the money its the adventure. I like long runs (soon as I can figure out a better seat for my 08 fjr). I'm almost retired just looking for something to do. I'm sure I can't win the race but I would like to finish in the middle. I met one of the girls on this year who rode in the Iron...

If you ever ride in florida during love bug season your are correct, using PAM cooking spray has been my favoite thing to use. Also I cut up an old bath towel in small six inch by six inch peices and put them in a zip lock bag with water to keep them wet. Put in in my tank bag then whipe the...

I've used Mobil 1 in almost all my motors for many years, Diesel oil has higher detergents, and also anti foaming additive which I found out works very well in high RPM engines like the ZX-11 I use to own. I put over 45,000 miles on the ZX-11 using diesel mobile 1 with not one problem. I also...
