Anybody use Pilot Power 3's? I currently have Pilot Road 2's and have gotten about 5k out of them. I'm planning on doing a ( full ) track day this summer. I've done several smaller track days with the Pilot Road 2's and they have worked fine ( scraping pegs ). Just wondering if Pilot Power...

Huh....I guess I should open my eyes. I don't know how I missed that. Thanks RaYzerman19!

I have an 05' FJR 1300 with throttlemeister and was wondering which brand of heated grips you like the best? Hot grips seems to be the most popular but I kind of like the ones made by AME where the level adjustment is right in the grip but it seems these are not sold in the open end style which...

Starting to look on e-bay. Thanks for the suggestion! Trying to filter out PDF ( most likely someone photocopying the manual )or CD vs. the actual Yamaha hard copy itself.

Ya, I'll most likely just pay the money for Yamaha manual. Looking back, I've spent $100 in more fooling ways in the past.

OK. I appologize to those that I have offended with my harsh response. If I had read ( or remember reading ) the guidlines when I joined a year ago, I would not have asked the original question in the 1st place. My fault. What I was hoping for as a response to my initial post was this... "...

Sorry, I was looking in the "Terms and RULES" section. Not the "GUIDELINES" section. This should probably be in the "rules" section and not the "guidelines" section. Ignacio, I'm not saying I could do it cheaper. I'm saying someone who cares probably already has done so. I'm guessing Yamaha...

I was not asking for a link to an "illegal site" for an online PDF doc. for free. I am willing to pay for a service manual but just not the $100 the yamaha dealer is asking. That is rediculous. I realize a lot of time and effort has gone in to making these but come on....are you kidding me...

Can someone tell me the best Maintenance Manual for the 2005 FJR1300? I'm sure it's pinned somewhere is this site but I can't seem to find it.

I'm thinking of taking mine in to the shop this fall for a similar problem. I can replicate it though by just holding the front break ( when sitting still ) and just pushing really hard on the handlebars. Tried the old screwdriver to the ear in different positions on the front fork while a...

I have a story about this one. When I bought my FJR 2 yrs ago, a friend of mine at work who also owned an FJR that he totaled gave me this advise. Keep the balls of your foot on the pegs when going through curves. The reason for this advice is because he totaled his bike when when his toe got...

I have an 05' FJR 1300 with 23,500 miles on it. I recently noticed a "click" sound when you hit a sharp bump in the front suspension. You can make it happen by just sitting on the bike, holding the front break and pushing hard and abruptly on the handlebars. Thinks I checked: 1. The...

I am the guy sitting in the hotel ( with the blue FJR outside ) stuck in the rain/wind/48 deg. weather. Day 4 of 6 day trip. Met JET. Nice guy. Randomness of the universe. On our trip, along Lake Superior, 308 miles 1st day, 240 second day, 160 3rd day, because of rain/thunder. 4th day 1...

Thanx for all the help. I think I'll start with the simple things, like removing the slack from the throttle cable. A guy I know at work said that you have to adjust your riding style for the FJR and he had an 03'FJR for about 7 yrs. After removing the slack, I'll have the guy ride it and see...

I am going from an 03' Kawi ZX-6rr to an 05' FJR1300. One thing that seems concerning to me ( and I'll try and describe the feeling as best as possible ) is the lag between off throttle and on throttle on my bike. When entering a corner on my other bike, it was solid power when closing the...
