Got to ride one today, and it was a great ride. It was as hort ride, too short. I am wondering, how do monsters work out, in general, for commuting and around town in between more sporting rides? Thanks

Hey Folks, I was reading the thread about 6th gear on here and I have a question for the brethren. Most of the time within the urban/suburban city limits I find myself going no faster than 45 mph tops, as it would not be prudent to go any faster for a number of reasons. I like to keep the...

Any vendors sell longer clutch and brake lines ( considering stacking risers) Thanks.

So I follow a link to the site called ST. owners to read about the FJR from there perspective and man....What a bunch of FJR bashers they have over there! I was very surprised by all these Honda guys finding every way they could to say the ET is superior...blah blah blah. It reminded me of...

Hi, I did a search but didn't find a answer. On the business end of the wire is a small metal flat donut shaped connecter and the other looks like it goes to a slot of something. How the heck does thing attach and to what? Thanks?

I have a question about the throttle response on my '05. I am used to a smoother cruiser style roll-on on my valkyrie, where there is no abrupt surge or decel response where you work the throttle. On my FJr it seems that anything less then the smoothest of throttle control results in surging...

I'm out on my new to me 05 FJR 2-up today and something new happens to me that never happened in over 20,000 miles on my old Honda cruiser. I'm riding the speed limit 35 mph in a rural area (New Marlborough, MA.) and my Escort 8500 starts pinging for K-band, and around the corner comes...

I did some searchs "advanced riding" +learn+to+ride and a couple others....and I didn't find a solution, although I got a ton of good stuff to read. I've been riding cruisers for along time, but I had a motorcycle before I had a car, so I've got a lot of riding experience, and I am competant...

please excuse my ignorance, but what is the advantage to using a fuseblock?

I'm a wanting one of these Garmin 2820 in a bad way, the FJR I bought has all the hardware for it installed alraeady, and with an MP3 player I won't need to buy a 3.5mm to 3.5 mm lead from Autocom in addition to using two poerts, one for GPS and one for MP3. Alright, here's the dilemma, this...

I did a search, but i didn't really find the type of information I was looking for. I come from a VTX and I have a lot of muscle memory for the cruising posture, which is familar to most. I am still trying to find the 'Sweet Spot' that 'feels right' for sustained saddle time. For my first...

After deciding and trying on helmets I decided I wanted a Shoei Rf-1000, but wasn't loving the price, 400 to 500 bucks. So, I watched helmet deals on ebay, and there is quite a lot of people selling new/almost new high end helmets for a lot of reasons, and I got my as new RF-1000 in Black...

I was looking at the HID lights on Skyway's website and they look pretty cool. I'm always looking for mods that will improve my visability during both day/night, but I ride mostly during the day. I know the Kisan Headlight modulator I ran on my VTX worked well, but I wondering are these Baja...
