    Parts For Sale Touring windshield for Gen 3 and Service manual for sale (includes ES bikes)

    Unfortunately, I can't remember what I paid for the windshield at the time. I remember resisting to change to a taller windshield because I thought I wouldn't like the look, but the comfort from the buffeting was such a plus that I should have done it sooner. I could hear my music better from...

    Which ADV Tourer? BMW GSA vs Super Tenere?

    I traded-in my 2014 FJR ES for a 2018 Triumph Tiger 1200 XCA. It was a hard choice because I truly loved my Yam. However, I was looking for an adventure bike that would allow me to ride light off-road such as gravel roads or fire-roads. I really enjoy the Triumph for it's lighter center of...

    erabuds/ear plugs?

    RHA MA750 ear buds.... love them. They loop over your ear which also helps to keep them in place when putting on your helmet (I used to wear a fullface and now a modular). The sound is great and I can still hear sufficiently around me without compromising security.

    Canadian Online Tire Prices

    We live in the same city..... For the last few years it has either been Fortnine or Pete's for my tires. No one has come close to matching their prices. Dealers are crazy expensive.

    Stuck in Guerro Negro - the KLR Krapped out!

    Speaking of bikes to ride for some epic rides, I am itching for the 2018 Triump Tiger 1200 XCA.... but damn, it is a lot of money. I love my FJR but I am thinking of a bike to ride some off-road trails (trip to Labrador, Alaska, Trans America Trail) and with a more comfortable position. But...

    https://flic.kr/p/21jtmNb For power, I use a PDM60. I prefer this to making connections to the battery. This unit is awesome because it eliminates fuses (in the photo there is a fuse - it has since been removed). You can program it so that your circuits wake up after a certain amount of time...

    https://flic.kr/p/22msQvf The light installed to the fork bracket.... I left the wire exposed because I wasn't keen on drilling any holes in the fender. I did leave a drip loop in the wire (it hangs down). I didn't want the wire very tight to allow for the movement of the fork and avoid...

    https://flic.kr/p/22pE9aH The controller installed..... the included L bracket gets screwed into place with the provided hardware. You need to remove a screw on the FJR because I believe it is too short to be used to secure the bracket.

    https://flic.kr/p/EgWj9w The connections are made at different lengths so that when I tape the whole thing, it won't be a huge thick bunch with the connectors all side-by-side.
