After 12 years and 200k miles on two FJRs (2007, 2015) I made a pretty drastic change. I traded for a KTM Super Duke 1290r! After all the time and miles on the Feej, the Duke feels like a scooter to sit on. Insanely light and powerful, its the most fun bike Ive ever been on. However, after a...

Sell for $350.00. Excellent condition,like new. Great sound and good looking! Took it off bike b4 trading. (2015 A). Prefer someone in Florida as shipping would be a pia.

My bike runs at 163 degrees at normal conditions at speed. That wasnt the case today. This morning the temp readout was all over the place. Never seen this before. 60 degrees, cruise set at 80 mph. Temp readings would jump from 157 to 172 to 161 to 168 to 159 etc. at intervals of a second or...

Brand new in box, size 41 Euro which is supposed to fit 9.5 US in these boots. I wear a 9.5 everything and these are just a touch too small. I wore them around the house thinking they'd stretch out but they didn't so I can't return for a 42. These boots are beautiful! $250.00 and I'll ship.

I think I crimped my throttle cable under the T bar after changing plugs. Took tank back off and freed cable but still no turn at grip. First time changing plugs. Bike started right up but no twist at grip. Anything obvious I can check or am I screwed?

So I'm heading out of Lake Wales, FL. on hwy 60 mid afternoon. Temp. has gone up to 86 and I gotta get out of my base layer pants. There's my chance on the right; a brand new Macdonalds in a shopping center with a dedicated turn lane into the complex. Perfect! Mickey has these huge handicapped...

I have a new V Stream sport touring shield that is professionally cut down 1" (to get some air!) and a stock Yamaha Touring sheild (also new). I'm thinking $100.00 for either one or make an offer! I'll ship it to you as I have the original boxes. I also had a C Bailey and a V Stream sport that I...

I'm just about done with all the farkles on my new '15A ! The last thing I'm considering is a PC V. I have no obvious need for this as my bike runs fine. My only thought is is that it would run cooler with some increased fuel. I'm under the impression that Yamaha has tuned the ECM to run as...

Got my new '15 A a few months ago! Love the Liquid Graphite, cruise control and heated grips. I'm coming off an 07 (130k trouble free miles). A common farkle on that year was a Power Commander to smooth out the throttle response and the lean fuel mix and I'm wondering if it also made the engine...

OMG, another windsheild thread. This ones maybe a little different and I hope it helps even one of the Gen 2 riders on the Forum. OK, I'm selling my 07 with 125k miles on it. The first 25k I tried the usual windsheild upgrades and ended up with the VStream. I rode with that for the last 100k...

My 07 with 130k mi. Is beginning to sound Harleyish! The usual "swarm of bees" exhaust note has introduced a bumblebee into the swarm. It's coming out the end of the tailpipe, sounds like a hole in the muffler. My question: Is it possible to re-pack the muffler with whatever sound deadning...

I bought this bike new and have put 125,000 trouble free miles on. Still runs and looks like new. I feel like I've gotten ample use of it for 9years so I'll let it go for $3,500 obo. Some accessories are Bill Mayer seat, Tour Performance T-Tree, Power Commander, V Stream Shield, Kuryakyn highway...

Just worn 2 days and I realized I needed next size up! View at Revzilla.com. Sell for $275.00. It's a truly beautiful jacket and I'm reordering the 54.

Just got my new Russell seat. Missed the group buy but I really wanted one so I got a rider seat, large rectangles, leather seating surface. Took it out for a short ride (200mi) to break it in but no luck in the comfort department.Seat immediately pushes me forward into the tank, I can't find...

I like to ride with the windshield (V-Stream) up just a little so I get air pushing against my chest and helmet. This helps keep me balanced on the seat but it's very, very noisy in the helmet. Over the past few years I've tried to wear earplugs I.ve tried the pink funnel shaped, the green...

I know this is a symptom of something, I just can't remember what. Bike is in garage at idle with lights shining on opposite wall. When I increase throttle the lights get a little brighter, when I roll back the throttle they go back to "normal". Is this acceptable for any period of time or...

It's a picture perfect morning and I leave before dawn for a 400 mi. ride to test out my first attempt to fix my "hot starting problem." (new spark plugs) I'm also testing my homemade windshield spacers (6 washers and a longer bolt) on my V-Stream. The bike is runing strong and the V-Stream is...

A few weeks ago after stopping for gas I turned on the key, waited for the initial cycle to end, hit the starter and got a brief stutter and no fire-up. You know how it usually is - a couple revolutions, it catches and fires right up. I didn't think anything of it except it was a little odd...

Now that I've finally decided on a Russell seat, the next decision is the pattern and material. This probably isn't such a big issue for those in more temperate climates but I'm in S. Fl. Most of my riding is done in temps of 85 and above. I'd like to ride without anything (beads or sheep) on...

Yeah, I'm on the seat ladder. Trying to upgrade my seating without going to the extreme wing things. Not having much luck. 80k on my bike and still haven't found the right combo for all day comfort. I've tried stock, modified stock, comfort gel, Spencered custom gel, and finally (so far) a...
