No Canyon Cages, sorry,

I have a set of Russell Daylong seats from my 2009. They are vinyl which is what Russell recommended. The front was built for a 170 pound rider with a 29" inseam, the rear for a 120 pound rider with the same inseam. I believe that I had them made in 2014. I will not sell them separately. $600...

Could not sell a high mileage 2009 FJR so I have defarkled it and am selling individual accessories. All prices include shipping to CONUS except trailer hitch and aux gas tank bracket. Kouba Lowering Links, drops rear 7/8". $80 from Kouba, $115 from our local dealer! $45 Passenger Backrest...

"Jack, if I got it from you, would you help me install it? Or, more likely install it while I hand you tools? " Everything but connecting the throttle to the cable. That's work and I'm retired.

Stripping farkles from my 2009 FJR. First thing up for sale is the CCS100 cruise control. This comes with everything for an FJR. It has the wiring to attach to the coil, the brakelight relay and wiring, the control panel with mount, bolts and spacers to mount on throttle side of bars, 4 vacuum...

Checked every spyder, no burning. Measured every spyder resistance to battery, .7 ohms. I tried to measure every wire but Yamaha's stinginess with wire made that almost impossible. I removed each spyder from the connector and reseated it. I also removed and reseated the relays for lights, fans...

"After starting but before the click, do the headlights come on? " Good question and the answer is no. There are no lights until the click, the lights come on and the problem goes away. At first I thought the lights were on but it was my LED auxiliary lights which were on even though the...

Symptoms are similar to other's experiences, turn signal indicators and lights on, high beam indicator on. But mine does not happen until I start the bike. A few seconds after starting I hear a relay from the headlight area click and everything is normal. Before I had the dealer put in the...

"If the load on the fastener is less than the tension on the fastener, the load will cause the fastener to stretch." I am struggling with this statement. If the tension on the fastener is X pounds and is in the elastic range of the material why would a load of X/2 pounds stretch the fastener?

Yes I am interested. I have front and rear Russells but am thinking of trying Seat Concepts so that I can reach the ground easier.

On each of my bikes I buy 2 Battery Tender cables with SAE connectors. I connect longer wires to them which go to an Eastern Beaver fuse block. I run these up to the handlebar area. One connects to my GPS, I made a cable for that, the other connects to my tankbag which has a USB charger inside...

I recently checked with a couple of dealers trying to get a feel on when is the best time to trade a bike in on a new one. I ride 30K a year and realize that the value drops fast. The local Yamaha dealer said they will not even consider taking a bike in with 30K on it. The BMW dealer, whose...

Interesting as it appears that boats.net uses another site for it's motorcycle parts. And that site is one that has many bad reviews. I also could not find any year model newer than 2014 on the boats.net site. Do you have a UPS tracking number already?

So I want to order a GenIII shock or maybe even a 2016 shock as they are even less money. Checking reviews of some parts ordering sites show some bad experiences. I am looking for recommendations for sites that you personally have had a good experience with.

But what is the cost to rebuild/replace the new electronic suspension? Intech says his GenII shock needed replacement at 30K miles. I have heard that Ohlins says to rebuild it's shocks at 20 Kmiles. It took several years for companies to come out with shocks for BMW's electronic suspension. May...

I just had Seth Laam build a seat for my R1200GS at a ride in appointment. I weigh 175 lbs wet and naked. I left his facility and rode a little over 200 miles to where I was staying. The seat was great. The next day I rode about 550 miles but the seat did not feel the same so I raised the front...

Interestingly I have installed an Audiovox CCS100 cruise on my FJR and used the chain attached to the throttle mechanism method. I also have an R1200GS that I want to install a Rostra kit on. I have bought the extra pieces for the throttle cable junction box and hope to start on the install...

"Jack, another option if you have not already considered is a brand new OEM Gen3 rear shock." I have been procrastinating about that for a little over a year trying to choose between that option or a much more expensive one. My concern was that the GenIII shock would make the bike about as good...

Did you put in the Gold Valves yourself? I have been curious about what Racetech says to do with the compression adjustment screw. When I rebuilt my forks I was shocked at what the FJR's "cartridge fork" valves really do. It would seem to me that the FJR's fork compression adjuster would be...

Actually we all know there is something wrong with it, the debate is what it is and whether I want to pump money into a bike that might be worth $4000 at the most because of it's high mileage.
