Thanks for the link Ludwig61, just ordered one. Will be handier than having to dig out that connector every time! @RossKean and @lonerider  Thanks for the advice.  I've put about 36 oz of fluid through it at this point and am STILL getting some air bubbles out each day, but much less and the...

Thanks for the info. I’m unable to stop it with just my foot against the tire—I’m concerned that’s too much spin. Though the engine doesn’t stall when applying the rear brake it does noticeably bog down, and I think this will prematurely wear the clutch. Thanks for the bungee tip, hadn’t heard...

Thanks for the link! I'm hoping someone can help as I have a new problem. The clutch was working 100% before I bled  it. However, it needed a full flush and during that I screwed up and let the reservoir on the handlebar drain completely, so air got into the system. Now, no matter what I do, I...

@RossKean Yep a flush and bleed did the trick. I’d planned on changing all fluids and lubing all pivots and the final drive anyway as it’s been years since any if this was done; relieved this fixed it. Found that ABS maintenance procedure on another site today, exact same one as you linked. I...

Been a very long time since I've been on the site; picked up rock climbing and really got into it, built a Sprinter camper van and everything which has sucked up the last 5-6 years. I was still commuting on my 2006 AV (no electric shift) until probably sometime in 2016 or mid 2017, but not at...

Hey all, thanks for the great replies! Very helpful! No, my FJR isn't poor or unloved, just haven't had a chance to get it out of storage since last winter--lots of late snows here (Denver), and busy with work ever since. And my GF has been demanding a garage parking space since we've been...

Hi all! A weird noise has appeared on my FJR (2006 A, regular shift). I finally got it out of storage yesterday, fueled it up, and went to start it. It's been on a battery tender all winter, btw. It took a lot of repeated start attempts before it finally got running, lots of "hold the...

Been a looooong time since I crawled out from under a rock around here..... glad to see nothing's changed. ;) I just ordered a set of Storm 2 Ultras from Amazon for $330. Advantage for me: free 2-day shipping as a Prime member. Been nervous about Avon's after having belt failure with an...

John, could you ask Jay to clarify this? I've been looking at several trailers now, and on one of their websites (I think the Uni-Go) the order page indicated that a circuit isolation relay was required for the harness on bikes with an antilock brake system, as seen on this page...

I'm in, and can pay immediately.

+1 I think I know which hitch this is; made by a company called Denray out of Canada. I'm considering this hitch, but am concerned that the hitch placement will interfere with removing the rear wheel when the bike is on the center stand. The lady at Denray says this won't happen, but I'm not...

John; I'd like to hear an update on this. I called Dauntless today; the shop manager said he didn't know you were coming! Let us know how this turns out.

Read the link I submitted. Black connector, # of wires is posted in that link. I recall that someone actually posted a picture of the connector on this forum somewhere. I did my search for "power commander sensor 2006", sometimes you have to get creative with your search terms. Yellow and...

clicky. BTW, if you don't want people to jump all over you, I'd recommend using the 'search' command first before posting a question as a new topic. No offense, but most questions have been asked and answered before; this took me like 20 seconds to find. I found it easiest to just splice into...

I put a Storm on the rear at the end of April, 17k miles. I'm now at 21k, and it looks like I've worn down about 40-50% of the tread. I'm basing this on measurement comparisons between this tire and a new pair I just got yesterday from swmototires.com; looks like I should get ~8-9k out of a...

Street?? Is that a typo? You live in Florida. Certainly you meant 'state'. :D

Whaddya mean? The Altoids can is hella-cool! B) Besides, the Altoids can cost like $1.50 at Walgreen's, and I get gum with it! :) Aha! I just need to mount this on my handlebars and run the patch cable to her--then I control it! :D

I apologize if this post is not in the correct forum; it is a farkle, though not attached to the bike.... The Problem: I recently installed a StarCom system for an upcoming tour of the Oregon/Washington coast. My girlfriend tours with me, and thus far we've used our own iPods with in-ear...

I've been running power inside my tankbag for years, no special modifications or bags required, works with any bag. I have an SAE waterproof two prong connector running out under my seat for my (old-style) heated Gerbing jacket; this was a full cable with an in-line fuse that came with the...

I'm with TWN on this one. It's a cost vs benefit ratio; the reasons I'm sticking with my 276c (for now) are a) I bought the 512MB card off eBay for less than half of what Garmin was charging, and I got it before the Zumo ever came out, so I already have all my memory needs (and with the 128...
