    How to remove 2007 fairing

    I need to remove a portion of the fairing on the left side to replace my coolant filler neck and hose. Does anyone have a diagram or instructions for the least possible work necessary to access that location?

    Dented rim

    I caught a hole when riding through a puddle and it put a small dent in my rim. Not noticeable at speed but when riding slow like in a parking lot it can be felt. Am I limited to only a stock 06-12 rim? Do Gen I rims fit? Are there any aftermarket rims or wheels from other makes that would...

    2007 Cranks once and then acts like the battery is dead

    I have been riding the bike all Summer and haven't been having issues with my FJR. 2 weeks ago I was getting home from work and turned the bike off to open the garage and talk with my brother. When I went to start the bike back up about 5 minutes later, it cranked once and all displays kept...

    Which synthetic coolant do you prefer?

    I am going to be flushing all of the liquids in my bike this weekend and have been looking around for a specific one that was reccomended on a FJR1300 topic about changing liquids. I saw a similar one on Amazon but delivery date would have been sometime mid October. I'm not exactly sure which...

    2007 Running too hot?

    I have a 2007 that seems to be running hot at stops. In the Summer I thought it was just maybe the hot temperatures and I was just happening to notice the temperature on my legs and looked at the reading. Temperatures have been low to high 60s lately and when I come to a long stop light the...

    Where to buy a replacement battery?

    So I had my bike in the garage on a battery tender all winter. I go to start the bike and all I hear is a buzz whenever I hit the starter. It doesn't start up and the lights dim out. I noticed before the green light on the battery tender would turn on and say "Storage" when it was usually...

    What to price a 07?

    I've been on the fence for a while now about selling my bike. Wifey is not interested in riding anymore since getting pregnant and our daughter was born. It has never felt like the right bike for me both in form and function since. I'm not using it for it's original purpose which explains only...

    My right side exhaust got scratched up and looking to see if anyone has a right side can left over from an upgrade in like-new condition. Didn't want to spend much on it considering funds are low atm. Second question, is it just as simple as swapping or would I need to replace anything else...

    Fluctuating RPMs after PCIII

    I installed my PCIII last week and the bike feels a lot smoother. I do notice that sometimes when I am at a light my rpms drop below 1000 and go around 500-800rpm. I did reset the TPS throught the software but don't know what could be wrong. I tried a search for low rpm and PCIII but didn't...

    WTB GenII PCIII

    I don't care if it's used. It doesn't matter right? I know I can get them new for around $260 but I am looking to see how much I can save since I am limited as to what I can spend. It's especially hard when I see so many goodies hit the for sale section. What should I be able to get a used...

    Finally got around to take a few pics

    Been too busy riding and decided to take a few pics on the way home from some piers over looking the Manhattan skyline. Took a few better pictures with a better composition but the point and shoot camera made them too dark. You can see the UN Building and Empire State building in the background.

    Was wondering if I was looking at the right bike and just bought one!

    Well I went to a dealer today because they had a promotion for buy one sports bike get a Suzuki 600 free. Turns out it was a 06 Katana GSX-600 and my buddy couldn't make up his mind. If it were a GSX-R600 he would have jumped right on it. I would have had to pay full msrp on the FJR plus...
