i don't think that's the problem. After changing the battery I started the bike and let it run while I put away my tools. It was up to normal operating temperature when I shut it off.

A couple of weeks ago I took my 2010 FJR out for a ride. It had the original battery in it which was now almost 8 years old. It turned over a little slow when cold so I decided to order a new battery to get ready for the coming season. I ordered the OEM battery from Partzilla since I had such...

If you like the Blues, go to Clarksdale - check out Red's Lounge. It's one of the last TRUE juke joints. Red has real live blues music on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. Check with Roger at Cathead about other attractions.

The factory cases were too small for me on extended trips. After a some research, I found that the FJR was sold in Europe without the cases as standard equipment (this was in 2010). Givi made the Pl357 that allowed any monokey bags to be used. It took a little time to find some in stock, but I...

Givi makes the PL357 mount for the FJR1300. The problem is finding one - I got mine several years ago from a bike shop in England. It cost as much to ship it as the cost. I can now use any Givi Monokey luggage. On long trips I use two E35 side cases and an E45 top case...

I like Harly Wax. It is a pure carnauba wax. I've used it for about 40 years on all my cars & bikes. https://www.harlywaxusa.com/

Givi used to make the SR-357 mount that fits my 2010 FJR1300. I use two Monokey E35 side bags and an E45 top case when on long trips. I found a NOS mount at a bike shop in England for about $250 + shipping. I've seen them on Ebay from time to time. I wonder if it will fit a 2014?

When I become so feeble I can't "insert key and turn" I think I'll quit riding.

This is a known problem with the Passport 8500. There are some caps that age and don't filter the input power adequately. See the forum at https://www.escortradarforum.com for more details.

I had the surgery in 1994 with no problems. For the first one, I got to the clinic about 10:00am and at 11:30am I was walking back to the car. With the implant I had 20/20 immediately and my vision has changed little, if any since. The other eye was a repeat of the first. I rarely wear my...
