Ok, before you tell me to just buy the FSM, I'm adapting a '13 FJR's left side switch housing to a Super Tenere. The primary reason for doing so is to gain the CC features that I intend to mate to a Rostra aftermarket CC. I have the switch housing and have mapped the wire colors, but could use...

This doesn't really fit any category, so I started it here in Fun Stuff and the Mods can move it if they feel the need. For all of you looking for a little something different- For a reason to go riding that can be down the street, or as far as you want it to be -- Here is a game that you can...

Note that the below item didn't pan out, but the poll is still of interest. 12/10 The last time I crashed I had a Geelong Carbon Craft Engine armor piece installed over the stator. I lowsided at ~35 mph and it ground through the carbon fiber, the kevlar reinforcement underneath that, the...

Gents and Ladies, I'm in discussion with a company that makes armored engine case covers and need to know if the stator covers on the different Gen FJRs will interchange. I know they have two different part numbers, but the engine is essentially the same, so my suspicion is that the different...

If you appreciate attention to detail work, machining or gun stuff, you might enjoy this read. A friend of mine is a gunsmith and is doing some restorationrepair work on a 1903 Colt pistol. Linky

So, you always wanted a 6-speed? Really feel the FJR is great, but would be even better if it was lighter? Still feel that chain drive is the best way to transfer power? But you do want all that great storage space and some decent fairing protection? You can't buy it in the US, but Yamaha...

Give 'er a toss. Best I did was 449.08 (went back for more) Best hang time - 1915.95 total moment!

This thread will be just facts and answers to frequently asked questions. As time allows I will add more data. The hope is that it will provide a useful primer for anyone interested in running a car tire on the back of their FJR w/o them needing to wade though the nearly 4000 posts, (as of...

Just heard from Jerry White, FJR rider in the IBR. His Electrosport stator fried on the way to the start in Spartanburg. Fortunately for him, he had the prescience to have a stock stator and gasket on hand and has made repairs and is back in action, ready for the start.

I searched, and searched, and google searched and just couldn't find this. I recall someone figured out how to either keep the AE in button shift mode, or do some wiring mod that allowed the AE to go into button shift mode upon key on w/o the rider going through the normal motions. This came...

Due to the SO not going to CFR, I have a beautiful CFR Rally shirt in Ladies XL that I can't wear and it needs a home. Original cost was $40. I'll sell it for that and include shipping to the lower 48. Best if you actually went to the rally, but hey, I'm not going to sweat that issue. PM me...

Just wanted to give Bustanut a public shout out for not only making some fantastic laser cut wood plaques for CFR, but for donating them to the event as well. These were auctioned off for the local food bank charity, (who received $1100 from CFR's auction!). The bidding was strong on the first...

A while back I posted about my low compression and "worn out" motor, what Yamaha had told me and what the techs were telling me. With suggestions from the list I did some decarbonizing routines and oil changes, but to no avail, the compression continued to fall at approx. 5 psi per 1k miles...

As tradition demands, one of the PacNorWet LD riders called a RTE for January 1st on the Oregon Coast at Mo's, (famous clam chowder restaurant, if you're not in the know.) Mo's We went to the original Newport location this year. Since NYE required me to spend the night at the SO's, I packed...
