I'm spending January 2013 in Phoenix and am considering trailering the fjr from Minnesota. I've considered renting while I'm there but there are insurance implications. 1. How is the riding in January? 2. Recommended rides?

Looking for a new or used Condor PSTK 6400 wheel chock that has the quick disconnect for a trailer.

I had some work to do under the nose cowling and I ran across these unused plugs and a termination Nice shiny unused termination on right side These are on the left side There is an identical 3 wire rectangular plug on the right side also. Know what their use is?

Anyone have a photo of the Givi E55 Topbox on a fjr? I have a 40 something but would like it a bit bigger and like the idea of gaining more rear lites.

Anyone seen the Candy Apple Red that Givi offers for their E55 top case? How close is it to the 07 Dark Red? Dan

Looked down while riding and noticed that the nuetral light was flickering. I'm assuming that I just got bit by the ground bug.

Over the Minnesota winter I made some changes to my '07 that have resulted in a vastly more comfortable ride for me. I have arthritis in both knees and subscribe to periodic injections and chronic use of Ibuprofen. Last year if I did 300 miles, I'd pay for it with sore hand, wrists, forearms...

Does anyone on this forum have the correct fork seal driver to loan/rent? Dan

The PO removed the center stand and installed a lowering kit. I'm taking off the lowering kit, going back to the stock dog-bones, and putting the center stand back on. I can suspend the bike with an engine hoist. Is it necessary to remove the bottom of the shock in order to get the lowering kit...

My research shows that the Gen II (07) fork has an additional damper compared to the Gen I (05). My question is, will I notice the difference? I don't ride the twistys like I did 30 years ago in fact my nerves give out way before the bike does. The reason I ask is that I found a big dent in one...

I need the right side fork assembly or at least the inner tube with innards. I could re-use the lower outer tube.

After a couple of thousand miles on the repaired 07, I'm getting some puddling in the driveway below the front fork / brake area. I first thought it was brake fluild but could not find the source. Yesterday I noticed a drop forming on the compression dampening adjuster on the fork bottom. It...

I have discovered that it is important to mount the top box mount to a rack that is tied into the 5 mounting points. Background: I'm the guy that rebuilt the 07 repairable in March. The rear sub-frame was cracked probably when it did its barrel roll and took out the rear rack. I have the cracks...

I'm looking for a lock core and key for a Yamaha top box. Zanotti and Ayers say they are not available.

Excuse me if this isn't the correct place on the forum to ask this but I was wondering if anybody was going to the Moonshine Run. There are 3-4 of us planning to go from Rochester MN. Moonshine Run 2010

This is about the bike that I'm repairing. I discovered that the bike has a lowering kit installed which probably explaines why the center stand is absent. Is a new rear shock and/or spring a part of the lowering kit? If someone could give me a measurement, say center to center of the stock arms...

Just discovered my head lights do not work, neither beam. The dimmer relay sounds like its toggling when hi/lo is selected. All other lights are working and other electrics appear fine. Fuses are intact. Where exactly is the head light relay? Help

Reveived the big order of part for the 07. I certrainly did not realize the extent of spring nut use in the front cowlings. Is there a source for these expensive little devils? $3.00 for the screw and spring nut. Also, what about the plastic push in fasteners that seem to be used a great deal...

Looking for a center stand and associated parts for an 07. Reason for missing unknown.
