It's funny how some people think a higher octane rating is better, 93 burns slower than 89 and is meant for high compression engines and those with compressors and turbochargers. If an engine is designed for 89 that's what works best. I doubt Yamaha did studies on fuel but used 89 to tune the...

What dealer do I trust with a valve check and cam chain issues around here ? Someone with FJR cred and the ability to get tupperware off and back on correctly would be nice. Stadium Yamaha ? Richardson ? I live a mile from the Lewisville place but..... Suggestions ?

I have the dis-pleasure of replacing my '05 radiator due to 3 rock punctures. I had the Cox mesh thing but obviously need something in stamped stainless steel for these Texas chip-seal roads. Meissner has one, $150.00 in black. Any other suggestions ?

OK fellow Blueflame Brothers, does your final install look symetrical length-wise ? I received my c/f dual ovals long ago and am finally healthy enough to start rebuilding my '05. I did not receive instructions (don't need 'em for 3 bolts) but have a length issue.......no not that. The stock...

Anybody have the correct torque values for fork tubes in the triple clamps ? Searched and searched. New AK-20's are in and ready for installation. :yahoo:

Looking for CRG or Pazzo FJR clutch and brake levers. Searching but can't find any. Any sources out there ?

Seems I wadded up my beloved '05 Sunday and wil need replacement Tupperware, all of it. Bags and exhaust cans too. I was not watching her but she must have tumbled like a ragdoll in that ditch. Tail assembly and front fender are fine, thanks. <_< Anywhoo, I need a MSRP list for...

I just performed the first TBS and spark plug change at 14,180 miles. The old plugs were PERFECT, all the same color and wear. Probably did not need replacing. My queary : Would the perfect condition of the old spark plugs suggest that '05 FJR #3300 has a healthy valve train, and dare I say a...

Bash me for my laziness, you guys are faster than the search feature. My odo reads 0 10247 after turning 10K. What is the "zero" then a space before the actual odometer reading. lazy-ass Hotboot <_<

OK so 2005 FJR #3300 reached 10,000 miles yesterday. I could not be more pleased with this motorcycle. Considering I'm a self-employed workaholic, have an FZ1 also, and picked it up Oct 1, 2004 I am shocked 10K got here so soon. It just grabs me and takes me away, always for hundreds of miles...

My front pads adhere to the rotors. This happens after a good washing with water and after the bike sits overnight. Total seizure that requires a good deal of force to break loose. Scared the crap outta me as it feels like someone glued it to the garage floor ! Some history: the first time this...
