(9-28-18, everything has been sold, thanks.) (9-16-18, update post, Russell saddle, service manual, and OEM wind screen are sold and removed from this posting. PRICES LOWERED ON REMAINING ITEMS Thanks.) I've sold my 2010 FJR. I have these parts listed on Craigslist, Minneapolis, MN. Here...

Hi gang, I'm going to dive into the deep end and do a clutch soak on my 2010 FJR. I've got my factory service manual, Youtube video of the procedure, and previous write-ups with photos ready to guide me. Except one question I need answered. Should the transmission be in gear, or in neutral...

A couple months ago I received two reminders from Yamaha that my Y.E.S. warranty was going to expire on May 9, 2016, and that they'd be happy to renew it, $470 for one year, or $594 for two years. Yuck. I put it off and put it off. Then on Wednesday of this week, I saw that D&H Cycle magnet...

Been a long time since I've been around... I hope everyone is doing well. My 2010 FJR is at that 26,000 point. Valve check and other stuff is due. I'm not so mechanically savvy to take on such work myself, I need a pro. I'm fairly centralized in the Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota area, more...

Been awhile since I've been here, hope all is well with everyone... I recently wore out my PR2's and installed a pair of PR4's. We used new stick-on weights to balance them, nothing out of the ordinary for weight amounts. Cleaned the rims really well prior to sticking them in place. I lost 2...

This past weekend I installed my new Helibar triple clamp. As such, I needed a torque wrench for a bunch of different fasteners with torque values of around 10-12 ft lbs to up over 80 ft lbs for the bike steering head nut. In my neighborhood I've got a Harbor Freight on one side of the street...

I'm sitting on a stool in my garage looking at the installation instructions for my new Helibars and it looks like the stock wiring/hydraulic line wire looms are used along with the Heli's. But my problem is that I don't seem to still have the wire looms from when I removed them to install bar...

I found at the Helibars website a link for holiday sale price discounts. It takes you to this page, https://www.helibars.com/holiday-coupon-code-offer In the process, it puts you on their email list- oh, well. $15 off $150, $25 off $250, and $50 off $500. I've got no affiliation, but this is...

Hello eastern MN and western WI, In the Parts and Accessories section, there is a link to a Russell Day Long group buy at a Goldwing board, so I signed up for that group purchase that will probably happen a bit later this fall. I realize each seat is custom built for its rider, but I'd sure...

Headline says it all- where is the Ultra II Cordura made? The kevlar jackets are stated on their website as being USA made, but I can't find any reference for where the cordura jackets are made. Of course this question occurred to me last last night (Friday), so I emailed them, but I don't...

(Don't know if I should have posted this here or in the tech. section. Mod's, move if necessary.) Has anyone built/fabricated your own handlebar risers? I have a set of bar risers right now that do a nice job of increasing height just over an inch, and they come back toward me just a little...

I just installed my first set of Grip Puppies. Riding to work this morning there were some sprinkles coming down, which made me think- if my bike is parked (or ridden) in the rain for awhile, will the Grip Puppies absorb and hold water? Thanks for your sharing your experiences.

Tonight I installed my new Rifle windshield- clear, +5" higher, +4" wider. Installed late this evening, so I didn't take it for a ride... yet. I'm 6' tall with a 30" inseam, so I'm tall above the saddle. At full windshield height, I'm looking through the new glass an inch or more down from...

Hello All, Haven't bought it yet, but on Saturday afternoon I took my wife to a local shop to view the '07 FJR. She's only 5' tall, leg length proportionate to overall height (i.e. she's not all legs, not taller in upper body eiither). On my current ride (Moto Guzzi California) I had to use...

Hello All, new guy here... When I singed up for the FJRForum group recently, I touched a bit on back pain and how I'm thinking, hoping, the FJR can help me. My current ride is a 2004 Moto Guzzi California EV, here's what it looked like before luggage, etc: Big ol' Italian v-twin, with the...
