    My friend Dave’s bike.

    I was working with a megaproject construction team in 2008/2009 and got to know the project controls manager fairly well. We were talking motorcycles one day and he mentioned that there was a group within the company that did an annual trip each year – was I interested in joining them? The guy...

    Modular Moto Tool Kit

    I got an email about this kit from RR Solutions. I've bought a couple of items from him in the past and they have always been top notch and this kit looks like a good fit for the FJR. No affiliation with the vendor other than I'll be buying one if it gets funded.

    MAP Sensor Voltage

    My 2006 has been acting like the MAP sensor isn't working properly (stumbling and misfiring inconsistently below 3000 rpm and running rich (12.8:1 according to the PCV AT) at idle). I read a post here where someone found some spooj in the hoses that run to the MAP sensor, so I took all those off...

    Arrogance of Old Age

    Yesterday morning I bought two six packs of beer on sale at the liquor store. I placed them on the front seat of the car and headed back home. I stopped at the service station where a drop-dead gorgeous, almost blonde was filling up her car at the next pump. It was very warm and she was...

    Russell Cycle Products, Shasta Lake, CA

    I searched and was surprised that nobody has posted about Russell here in the vendor forum. I purchased a used Russell seat last winter off EBay. It is a top of the line heated rider and passenger leather seat in the half moon pattern. While the back seat was great, I wasn’t really happy with...

    Fly The Friendly Skies - or ride the FJR

    By now, everyone has seen the debacle that was United's treatment of one of their passengers and the arrogance of their response. United is particularly bad to deal with as a passenger but all of the airlines have been moving away from customer service. Actually, United is much better than they...

    SW-Motech Tank Bag Ring

    Looking for a non-evo SW Motech Tank Bank Ring for an FJR. Part # TRT.00.640.10200.B. It is the older style with the raised hooks at the back. Revzilla, and Twisted Thottle are both showing back-ordered with no estimated delivery. I'm hoping someone has one that they don't need anymore.

    Gen II Headlight Assembly

    I currently have an LED setup and the light pattern is terrible. So, I am looking for a GenII headlight assembly in good repair to do a projector lamp install project on. I don't want to have a problem halfway through the project and screw up the only headlight I have. I have been watching...
