    Doesn't start - then it does

    It was the solenoid.  Corroded connectors.  Bike starts fine now.

    Doesn't start - then it does

    Guys, my login problems continue here for reasons no one can figure out.  I'll be on the other FJR forum until the problem gets fixed.  As for the bike, I tore off all the plastic, checked every spider, the MAC sensor, all of it's vacuum hosing, the troublesome connector up front and everything...

    Doesn't start - then it does

    Thanks for the replies.  The battery is only two years old and is kept on a tender.  The battery connections are tight.  I ran the error codes and, on D61 got three codes:    12 - Crankshaft position sensor error    14 - Error in the inlet pressure sensor (sensor disconnected or faulty)   ...

    Doesn't start - then it does

    I have a 2007 FJR with 20,000 miles on it.  It has had the recall services for the ignition key, ECU and spider ground.  Yesterday, after an hour ride, the bike would not start.  With the key off I hooked up jumper cables.  The bike started to crank so I turned the key on and it started, ran for...

    Tank bra for a Gen II

    Thanks for the info on TechSpec. Appreciate a serious response to my posting. And grandson is quite a fella, though where’s his helmet?

    Tank bra for a Gen II

    Guys - While I appreciate the suggestions, I am looking for something more like the Mag-Knight -- a cover/protector that will fit against the tank and protect it from getting scratched.

    Tank bra for a Gen II

    My Mag-Knight tank bra has cracked. A replacement, including shipping, is over $100. Seems excessive to me. Does anyone know of a similar, less expensive tank bra? I'm not looking for one of those fancy, etched designs. Just something simple that protects the tank. Thanks, Jon

    Best replacement battery

    MrZappo - Thanks for the advice on the trickle charger. I already have a Battery Tender, as well as a regulated solar charger. Both have worked fine over the years. All I need now is something for them to keep charged.

    Best replacement battery

    Thanks guys. I think I'll go with the Yuasa YT14B-BS.

    Best replacement battery

    Amazingly, the original battery in my 2007 Gen II is still working. But I'm not going to tempt the fates any longer and am therefore looking for a replacement battery. I'd like to get suggestions on which to buy.

    Michelin Pilot Power 180/55-17 motorcycle tire

    So many questions. It is just the "regular" Pilot Power, not the 3. And the reason I didn't put in on the rear is that I have a Pilot Power 3 on the front. When I took it to the shop they told me that I should put a 3 on the back. OK, I don't know if the advice was true or if I was sold a...

    Michelin Pilot Power 180/55-17 motorcycle tire

    I screwed up and bought the wrong tire for my motorcycle. So here it is. Michelin Pilot Power 180/55-17. Never mounted, never used. I know it will fit the rear of Gen IIs. Not sure of other applications. I paid $124 on Amazon for it in May. I have it on eBay starting for $75 but will...

    Lowered Footpegs

    Airhawk air inflatable seat cushion. Add or remove air to adjust height/cushioning. Comes with straps to hold it in place but also has a non-slip backing which has worked just fine for me without the straps. The model R has no cushioning done the middle, relieving pressure on the prostate for...

    2015 MoonShine Lunch Run (merged)

    This will be my third Moonshine. My plans this year are still tentative, but if I go I'll be camped out at the KOA campground just north of Casey. Forum members are welcome to stop by, enjoy the campfire and share tall tales and good spirits. I'll post again once my plans are confirmed.

    Used Garauld's resevoir mounted bracket for sale

    I have a used reservoir mounted radar detector bracket made by Garauld for sale. It works great. I just went with a different mounting system. I have the bracket, the rubber gasket and the mounting screws. I don't have the strap. The bracket has a couple small scratches and the rubber...
