I watched Joey Dunlop tackle the TT as a kid. I'm still as fascinated by it now as I was then. Getting there to see it first hand will always be part of my bucket list. This movie will be released Oct 14 in the UK/Europe. Not sure how to get in state side.

On a few random occasions within the last 3000 miles my 47K '08 has exhibited some confidence rattling electrical issues. On two occasions the bike was warmed up and otherwise running fine. When going to start bike again no starter, dash lights flash, gauges sweep. Cycle ignition and starts...

Found out I have orders to JRB Fort Worth, checking in next July-August. It's been great living in CA, NC, and UT over my military career so I'm hoping TX will be a great place to explore as well. Hoping that the riding in Hill Country and SW Arkansas satisfies my needs for curves. Looking...

Just getting the word out a great deal! Clicky

I've always liked the look of the Raider. I had the opportunity to ride one today and I must say I'm very impressed. Having ridden many H-D and Victory cruisers to compare the Raider to; I came away feeling very impressed with the power, smoothness, and gearbox on the Raider. I've always...

I've had great experiences with revzilla. One thing I really like is the teamzilla cash back. For every 100 dollars you spend you get $5 cash back on your next purchase. I previously bought my Shoei Qwest with them and earned 15 teamzilla dollars that was just applied to the Sena SMH10 I...

I scored a used Yamaha touring trunk and just need the mount for a GEN II.

While rebuilding my forks I was installing the bottom bolt to spec for the damper rod assembly and the female threads of the damper rod sheared. Please help, this part is the most expensive part of the fork assy and is backordered most places.

I put on the Cee bailey headlight armor this spring. Today I noticed that my headlight lens on both sides are cracked all over. Serious crazing and brittleness. I'm not sure if this is from heat build up or the simple green I've used to clean them lately. This summer was the first time I've...

I searched using google and couldn't find a previous posting of this on FJRForum. Good info for those that use the Super Tech 7317 There are versions of the 7317 made in Mexico which are not as good according to the author of this report Filter report All the Super Tech filters I've used...

It's friday and I'm an attention whore so here it is... :D This isn't meant to be an MPG thread but geared more toward understanding the design and limits of the fuel system. A touring rider should know the limts of their machine but I understand this is possibly bound for NEPRT. I've...

I was looking for a way to expand storage on solo tours and use the back seat to do it. Looked over the tail packs at newenough.com and liked the price and features of the Nelson Rigg CL-150. Turns out it is a perfect fit. The nice thing about the bag is dimensionally it fits so well. The...

Didn't enjoy ripping the entire bike apart to just change the coolant, but it got my mind off some things that were buggin me. It'll go alot faster next time now that I've figured out how to remove the front cowl. It went back together faster than it took to take apart which doesn't happen that...

I just saw a commercial for this tape on TV. Looks like it might be a good way to keep corrosion out of the spiders. Mighty Fix it tape any thoughts? I am not sue how it would hold up to heat

I searched and couldn't find anything related to my TBS issue. I live in Utah at 4700 feet Yesterday while doing my throttle body sync I bottomed out my #3 air screw trying to attain 250 mm/hg of vacuum like the manual calls for. The reason I couldn't reach 250 wasn't immediately apparent...

So as the weather slowly clears enough in Utah to rid me of PMS (parked motorcycle syndrome) I have been getting the new bike itch. I get the itch every couple of years. Not sure why, I have always been a bike whore and love the smell of that engine break-in smell. Scoured the earth to look...

I just moved to Utah from NC so I will be looking out for some FJRs around the SLC area. My first trip out here was up into Wyoming down highway 414 through the mountain view side of flaming gorge into Vernal. Took the route past Strawberry reservoir to get home. So many great roads, so...

destined for NEPRT, but I had to let everyone know about my new windshield. Good news: It looks great, doesn't look like a barn door, and the light gray tint is perfect. Top notch quality and service from CB. I don't have to look through the shield for calm air. The test ride was a great...

I searched for a similiar poll and couldn't find one. I spent the money on Harley factory grips for my Glide and they quit working in less than 3 months. I am leary of spending the money on mama yama grips since they are so pricey and don't want to repeat any mistakes. I would prefer to have the...
