    replacing rear view mirror

    I'd appreciate anyone's help? I do not have a manual. I have to replace the rear view mirror (LFT) on my '05. Is there an archived thread on this? I tried to do a Search for it, but didn't get much return. :blink: How much fairing am I going to have to remove? Can the side fairing piece...

    ***SPOILER*** American GP

    Hayden won the Laguna Seca MotoGP for the second year, which pretty well establishes his position at #1 and Pedrosa will easily make up the 3 points he needed to surpass Rossi and claim the #2 spot in the standings. September is just around the corner. I got a feeling Nicky Hayden is going to...

    federally mandated sticker

    I just read through that whole discussion about fixing the problem with the 17mpg readout. I don't know anything about this federally mandated sticker but I can tell you I had my entire instrument cluster replaced a couple of months ago and I didn't get no stinking sticker and my bike only...

    Riding the BlueRidgePkwy

    Anyone know the northern side (North NC and Virginia) of the BRP well (and Skyline Drive through the Shenandoah?) My wife and I just rode about 200 miles (one way) on it (from Cherokee to Boone after doing the Dragon dance) and I found it extremely tiring. But I've alwyas wanted to ride it all...

    tank bra

    Is anyone using a tank bra? I'm talking about the type that covers the whole rear part of the tank (closest to the rider). I'd like to know: 1. does it help with the heat problem on the inner thigh? and, if so, 2. where did you get one to fit the FJR? I recently went on a two-up ride and...

    New gauges -new '05

    Finally got the clocks replaced. My gauges would not sweep on ocassion. Were checked by the techs for loose connections a couple of times. They usually worked after the bike heated up and got running. Sometimes they would just come on in the middle of a ride, sometimes after turning bike...

    Davie, FL, Broward Motorsports

    Sales: I have bought two bikes from these folks. My '05 FJR was on the showroom floor when I found it. The sales manager sold it to me for MSRP + (12, 680OTD), but he gave me so much money in trade in for my 2 year old Trophy 1200 (with 28K miles on it) that the bike wound up costing me...

    Non-sweepers

    Wanted to share that: My dealer had to order new gauges for my FJR. ('05). I've had an inconsistent problem since soon after I got the bike. The gauge needles wouldn't sweep on first start up. After idle, I would back it up, roll onto the driveway and turn it off. Sometimes, the gauges...

    06 glove box

    Might be a little early for this, but does anyone know if it will be possible to retrofit the 06 glove box (w/ 12v outlet) to the 05 fairing? I know it's kinda hard when there aren't any 06es out there, but I'm always amazed at the amount of knowledge on this board, so I wouldn't be...

    Biketoberfest dangers

    I always hate hearing about a mc rider down. Biketoberfest has already started ugly: "A string of accidents on a dark, rural road ended with two cars slamming into a group of motorcyclists participating in Biketoberfest, killing four people." :angry: It's a nice, easy ride to leave the...
