    Utah meet, greet, eat, and ride

    Would any of you fellow Utah FJR riders be interested in getting together June 30. Was thinking of meeting somewhere for breakfast. Maybe the Golden Corral on Redwood and 89th South. From there, go to Bear Lake then to Woodruff and down Monte Cristo to Huntsville. In Huntsville, we could...

    New Russell Seat

    Just got back from a ride-in appointment at Russell. I must say the seat is as good as advertised. With the stocker I'd start to feel the burn after about 200 miles. With the Russell, I did a couple of 500 - 600 mile days with no discomfort on the arse. The experience could not have been...

    Altitude vs Sea Level Performance

    Just got back from a trip to the Northern Cal and Oregon Coast. I live in Salt Lake at an altitude of about 4500 feet. The bike runs fine but is not quite what I expected power wise. Heard stories of wheelies in the the first two gears, but couldn't get mine to perform like that. Well just...

    Gerauld's Luggage Rack/Backrest Outstanding!!

    Add another to the long list of happy customers of Gerauld's fine work. Couldn't be happier. This setup will allow me to use my T-Bag luggage from my VTX and another large tailbag as well. Strong work Gary. Thanks a bunch.

    Garmin 2720 headphones

    What headphones/earpice do you use with your Garmin 2720 on the bike? Are there any headphones out there that come with a 2.5mm plug or are you just using an adapter?

    07 battery access

    Ok, before I break something I thought I would ask. What is the trick to getting the quick fastener out to remove panel A and access the battery? Do you just pry it out or is it supposed to turn?

    Brad's New Bike

    This one made me chuckle. I think we all know someone like this. Possibly even met them in the mirror. https://video.yahoo.com/video/play?vid=187679&fr=

    Russell Seat Question

    After a couple of 400 mile day rides, I have decided the stock seat isn't going to cut it for me. After loads of research and previous experience with Corbin I have narrowed my choices to the Russell or the new Sargent. If I get the Russell, I'm going to do a ride-in appointment from Utah then...

    First 500 miles.

    Picked up my new 07 A model in Ely, NV on saturday. Rode the 280 miles back to Salt Lake which gave me ample time to form some good first impressions. Overall I'm very pleased with my purchase. Some things were better than expected, some not quite as good as I hoped, for but good none the...

    Skyway Highway Pegs?

    I seem to have heard rumors of a Skyway highway peg in the works. What is the status? Will it be soon or should I go ahead and order the Wild Bill pegs?
