    Shorai Li battery - does it change charging rates?

    You don't need to "abuse the starter" to warm up the battery. Turn the ignition on and let it sit like that for a minute or two.

    Found this FJR at bike night

    Wonder why they left the pax pegs in place. I would have cut off all the cowling mounts. Nice work otherwise.

    Need a cheap Mirror even if glass is broke

    Brilliant, even for a Darksider.  I'm missing a couple in my spare mirror and never considered using BBs.

    Clear Lake via Lake Berryessa (SF Bay Area)

    I had a picnic lunch at that spot this past Sunday. We locals call that road the Berryessa GP.  Depending on where you enter Ca. some great roads.  Ca 96 Ca 3 Ca 299 Ca 36-one of the best in the state. 140 mi. of twisties. Check before you ride it as construction closes portions on the west...

    Most technically challenging road

    The famous Hwy 36 sign is next 140 miles, not 96.  Technically challenging depends on the rider, the bike, the conditions, etc. I rode Breckenridge Rd in the southern Sierras near Lake Isabella. It's one of the most technically challenging roads I've ever ridden. Hairpin turns for miles going...

    What is wrong with you people?

    It's not only about contracting the 'rona, you can by asymptomatic and pass it on. How would you feel if you introduced it into a small community that previously did not have or had very few cases?

    Edit: Does Cruise Control return to "Zero"?

    Use the CC control and after a while your brain will train you. It ain't any big thing.

    Misaligned steering?

    Did you torque the stem nuts correctly? They are critical.

    Misaligned steering?

    The top nut is a jam nut and is torqued finger tight. I'm guessing the O ring prevent the top nut from transferring any torque to the bottom nut. As this is a thread on aligning the steering, I'm hoping you are not messing with these as it is not required.

    Misaligned steering?

    Never loosen both the upper and lower triple clamp pinch bolts or the bike will drop. I straightened my steering this past weekend. Loosen the upper triple pinch bolts and the steering nut. If you have a bridge, you have to remove it.  Stand in front of your bike with your leg against the wheel...

    Gen III Side Panel Removal with Charcoal Canister

    When removing the charcoal canister, plug the front hose as this goes to the throttle body. The rear hose is the vent for the gas tank. Leave this open.

    Gen III Side Panel Removal with Charcoal Canister

    There are 2 hoses at the canister. One goes to the throttle bodies and the other goes to the fuel tank. You need to block off the one going to the throttle bodies. You can trace them out, suss out the parts diagram or do it the easy way. Open the gas cap and blow into one of the hoses. If you...
