I have the accessory shelf for a gen 2 FJR. Shelf only, no hardware. In good condition, has some Velcro attached on top but that should come off if you don't like it. Located in Sacramento. $60 + shipping PM me an email address and I can send pictures. For some reason the image link wont work

Well, I added the G2 throttle tube and pulled all the slack out of the throttle.....much better now, like it should have been in the first place....not sure why Yamaha couldnt figure out something as simple as a throttle mechanism at the factory....In all the 20 bikes Ive owned Ive never seen so...

Well, I got it figured out. Putting the tank on got rid of the flashing gauge. It turns out the hazzard light were on becasue I flipped the switch to them at some point I guess. I have all the accesories working. Using my voltmeter I traced the issue back to the relay power wire. I picked up...

I will plug the tank in. I know my ground harness has an issue. Its suppose to go into the shop to get the ground harness replaced. It went in for the recall but they discoverd it was too late and Yamaha is going to replace the whole ground harness. I take it in for that next week to get the...

holy cow....thats insane! I bet he is at home on the toilet emptying his pants and praying to god he is alive. I had a friend do a 90-100 mph get off on his GSXR that landed him in the hopitol for a week.

So I have be redoing all the wires for the accesories and installing my fuzeblock fz-1. I got all the wires connected and ran. The bike has the side panels off, the front cowl and the tank off...but I figured I should be able to turn the ignition on and atleast check to make sure everythign...

I am re-doing all the accesory wires on my FJR. The original owner added a ton of crap but ran all the wires direct to the battery. I currently have everything re-routed to a fuzeblock FZ-1. However, I got to the PIAA wire harness and the power leads are very short. I am rthinking the easiest...

So has anyone used a Upack on the FJR? Anyone have pictures, experiences 2 up with one? It seems like my only option for camping two up. I should also note that my bike has a givi rack on it and not the factory rack

I wouldnt say I dont like my FJR.....I am just very frustrated with the number of issues that have been encountered or that are likely (casuing limitation, such as the subframe). This just isnt what I expected based of all the rave reviews and the so called japanese build...

Well, I talked to a friend of mine and he offer to loan me his Jo's Upack: https://www.josupac.com/main1.html You guys are starting to make me question the FJR as a sport touring bike...and I am starting to question what the love for this bike is. All these issues on this one bike...I had to...

Damn, you guys have me rethinking the camping. I already do some of the tips like I dont do meals at the campsite, I eat out. I just need food, clothes, tent and sleeping bag. I use my clothes for a pillow and my girlfriend will do the same. My biggest challenge will be mounting the tent to the...

So it looksl ike my girlfriend is going to do her first motorcycle camping trip with me next month when I ride up to the FJRays Rueben meetup in LaPine. The trick is that I have never tried camping on the bike two up. Any recomendations? Loading gear? I have a Givi V46 top case and of course the...

I found out that Roseville Yamaha has the Yamaha demo truck there yesterday and today. I have heard they have the new FZ-8, and I beleive even an R1....Just passing the info along, but its a 2 day only thing....yesterday and today. I may need to stop by after work and try to test a super tenere.

MUST HAVE TUNES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have tried that but the wire seems to interfere with the tension disks for the vista cruise....I just dont want to have to cut my grip....but even then I am uncertain that the vista cruise wont be putting too much pressure against the grip.....I may just leave the vist cruise off....

I have BMW grips, a vista cruise and heated grips. I had to replace the heated grip elements becasue of something the previous owner did and install the G2 throttle tube. I put it back together and I cant seem to get it back together and work properly. Either the vista lock wont hold or the...

Being a long time BMW fan, I demoed a K1600GT. It felt just too big. I also didnt like the clutch feel with the slipper. I think BMW needs some work in that department. The K12 and K13 clutch has had many issues as well, although the FJR clutch isnt exactly perfect. I ended up buying a 07...

I had an 04 1150GS. They are great bikes! The final drive issue is a bit overplayed by the internet. My biggest issue with the GS was buffeting. I still miss mine and wish I still had it. Handled much better than the FJR and the suspension will soak up even the knarliest roads. The boxxer is a...

But I should note that I can press the button for the glovebox without the key in the ignition and it will open. Its not locked without the ignition on.

So my new to me 07 FJR has had some mods for certain. I lnwo the previous owner did alot of thing like return spring mode, windshield position mod...but my glove box doesn latch. I can open the glove box without power, the only way to get teh bike to latch is to turn the ignition on, press the...
