Thanks Ignacio - this was very helpful - I know see that the black plastic piece and the plastic gauge covers come as i unit and is not to hard to replace.

Would you have to replace the whole speedo for a cracked glass or is there a way to replace only the glass - I have a small crack starting in the bottom of mine that goes up about 1/2 inch and I'm sure it will get worse. Thanks

I'll have to do some checking into these items - Thanks for the info Ion

I guess that is what I was wondering about the passing the digital readout test could it still be faulty. It does it when Cold and occasionally when hot and yes it is more pronounced in the lower gears. Thanks

I have an 05 FJR - 40,000 miles and it at times exhibits symptoms that lead to TPS replacement - my model number was not on the recall list. I checked the TPS with the bike digital readout and it appears fine - starts at 15 to 99 and goes up graduated when twisting the throttle. Today while...

Yep I knew that would happen - I told you guys never never warm up your FJR. Start her in 1st while sittin on her and soon as she starts give her full throttle right through the gears and this won't happen - funny story - P.Braido :yahoo:

Hi Dave - I had mine repaired up here in Northern Michigan where I bought my 05 and the dealer was and still is excellent with me. Its a ways from you though probably about 500 miles. Mine was fixed at the end of 05 with about 23,000 kms on it and it now is pushing 50,000 kms and all is good. If...

Hi Vince - my wife rides on back with the Givi trunk and backrest and she finds that it is fine - I have no compliants on space nor does she - now that being said she is about 5'7" tall and only 120lbs so the backrest suits her fine. But another couple we ride with - his wife being 5'1" tall did...

Right on Tom - those photos are from Killboy - we ordered 3 each seeing that they turned out so well the only hard part was trying to remember who took the photos when we got home as we didn't think much of it at the time. Seems that we (I usually ride with another couple) have always said that...

Hi Jaycen - have a blast and be sure to ride the Cherohala Skyway - very nice scenic ride thats not far from the Dragon. Also Gatlinburg is a nice town to visit and some nice riding through the park there - enjoy - Phil

Love the Stradas - I have run Bridgestones and Metzlers and much prefer the Stradas for stick and mileage - Phil

The wife and I have compiled over 20,000 miles with her on back and like several have stated before I don't even know shes there except for the odd hit in the back when I get over 100 mph. Give a chance and ride with her for a few weeks before you give up. One thing passengers must learn is not...

We rode the Dragon and toured throughout the Smokies in March with another couple - here on some pics - https://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/pbraido/albu...m/ph//my_photos

Was wondering if anyone has changed the fork oil without pulling the forks off the bike and what the proper amount of fork oil is. I have drained it and was in the process of removing the top off the fork but before getting into this was wondering if it is done that easy as removing the top and...

Was wondering if the FJR has a fuel filter and if not has anyone put one on their bike - PBraido

Just wonder if anyone is using this modulator which causes the brake and signal lights to come on and flash for 2-3 seconds when applying the brake. I found one place in Florida called Motorcycle accessories which sell them and was wondering if there is any other places that sell them. A friend...

I'm with Warchild on this one - I can't believe it would develop the tick in 2,500k but I would bring it back in and let them listen to it - PBraido

25,000 miles on my 05 which ain't bad considering I live up here in Northern Ontario and that means no riding for about 5 months a year - tick repaired at 15,000 miles and no problems since - PBraido
