Hey Folks, Looking for a rear grab handle / rack in excellent condition. Mine is pretty beat up and I was hoping it was something I could replace relatively cheaply if someone here went the Givi rack route and has one laying around. Part number is 3P6-24773-01-P2, in case my description is...

A new house and job have kept me busy, and I have hardly ridden these days other than commuting (does not count). Gonna head to the northern hill country to see if any bluebonnets around. I will definitely hit 29 and then 1900 near Mason, then head south towards Fredericksburg and willow loop...

Hey All, My father and I are taking off to explore the southeast. Our list thus far is BRP, Skyline, Deals Gap, and the Outer Banks. Any can't miss recommendations? We have about eight days to see as much as we can. We will be camping, so would like suggestions for that as well (we like...

All, My dad just purchased a 2006 FJR with 6200 miles on it, and there seems to be a ton of movement in the front rotors. When he brakes hard, a loud crack can be heard, similar to a .22 rifle. Yamaha considers this normal wear and refuses to replace them. Any of you guys or gals have a pair...

Hey Guys, My father and I are headed to Big Bend next week for 5 days and are looking for suggestions on routes/things to see. We are staying in the Indian Lodge at Ft Davis, and have planned to make three loops...the Davis Mountains and the two large loops down through the state park and...

Hello All, I was attempting to adjust my suspension to setting specified by HaulinAshe and may have inadvertantly screwed up my rear shock. I attempted to tighten the shock initially, but could not get it to budge, so I backed it out to see how many clicks it would go. I went six or so and...

Anyone notice? It is a virtual lovefest right now. Regards, Davy

Anyone interested in having a maintenance day in Austin? I was thinking throttle body syncs, coolant flushes, and valve clearance checks (wishful thinking?). Let me know if anyone is interested, or has other ideas. Sincerely, Tha Mooch

Hey Guys, I have been working on the AVCC install the last few days and cannot get it to engage. I have gone over all the wiring several times and everything seems to be in order. Basically, the control pad has power and I am able to turn it on. When I hit the set button, nothing really...

Hey Guys, I sent an inquiry to British Motorcycle Gear about my challenger jacket and found out about a really cool trade in program. I was sending a small complaint about the liner of the challenger (after 4 years of abuse) and this is what was sent back: Hi Davy, When we took over the...

Hey Guys, I just bought a cruise control from dbx and was wandering if anyone in the Austin, TX would lend me their expertise and garage. I am in a transitional state (no, i am not homeless) living in a small apartment, thus have nowhere to work on something this major. Perhaps a few of us...

In case you missed the first leg of our trip: Western US Trip To sum it up quickly: About 8 months ago, my father and I set out on a five week, 11000 mile tour of the Western US together and had an unforgettable epic journey. Near the end of the trip in Nevada, we parted ways so I could run...

Hey Everyone, I recently did a trip with my father throughout the Western US states and got cheated out of a few key states. My ignition went out in Kanab, UT, before I could go through the Utah canyonlands and Colorado (million dollar highway). Although I was able to hot wire the bike and...

A little background: I have been thinking seriously about this trip for about 6 years, and my resolve was further bolstered when I spent some time in Iraq in 03-04. Although motorcycles were around me most of my life, I never actually purchased one. When I got back, I bought my dad's suzuki...

I have resigned from my job today in order to do some traveling for the next six months with my father and fiance. In about three weeks, I am going to take a trip with my father across the United States on our motorcycles (he has a goldwing) for about five weeks. It will be a special trip, and...

Hey Guys, I have been having a reoccurring issue in the last few months with my 06 Fjr. The engine keeps dying at low speed and seems to idling very low. When I start the bike, it revs at 11-1200 rpm for a while then ultimately drops to 500 rpm. I shift into first gear to start and barely...
