    Speedo Healer or Something Similar

    Yet another reason not to cave to pressures to convert to the metric system. :D

    So how's it after getting off the entrance ramp and getting up to speed? ;)

    Speedo Healer or Something Similar

    Most mfgrs set their speedo to read high to avoid class actions. Once I understood the amount (sometimes X mph and sometimes a % where the delta increased directly with speed), it seemed easy to just do it in my head. Sure quicker and cheaper to install across multiple bike. ;) But we all do...

    Problem changing from 2nd to 1st while rolling to stop

    There's a brass bushing in there. Remove it, clean and lube it before replacing. Clean and lube all the mechanical contact points in the lever's "pod". If the center of the bushing is out-of-round, replace it. They are common and not expensive. R&R annually.

    Odd 1st gear issue

    My recommendation is also the least expensive to implement. Don't coast in N.

    Looking good, but I couldn't give only a like after a call-out.

    Hi there, I need help and am new

    Sorry about not hosting videos here. We don't have the space given it's free membership. However, you can upload a video to Youtube and send a link here.

    People are here that can help walk you through a diagnosis and possible DIY fix. Beyond that, look in the for-sales, keep offers and conversations in public (in the threads), and don't try to pull people into private email conversations. Good luck.

    A few of us chipping in together and came up with this little spreadsheet tool.

    Lowering Kit

    I haven't had to recommend this is a few years. Instead of spending your life adjusting the world to you, how about a 1-and-done solution?

    Lowering Kit

    Not well. You lose cornering clearance. Get thick-soled boots.

    Mile Eater Awards

    Is it done within parameters? It counts. Whining because someone can't figure out how to document it, doesn't negate those who can.

    What are buttons for?

    Maybe this will clear things up. https://www.fjrforum.com/threads/fjr1300-model-comparison-matrix.181562/

    Smokers (BBQ - not grilling)

    I do stretch my meat budget farther than I did 4 years ago.

    Smokers (BBQ - not grilling)

    I love me sum ribs but the dutch in me always sends me elsewhere as the meat:bone ratio can't be amortized. :ROFLMAO:
