    2015 Yamaha FJR1300A -- $7900 OBO

    I forgot to post that the motorcycle sold a long time ago.  I think that it was on the market for two weeks and then it sold locally.  I let it go for $7,500.

    2015 Yamaha FJR1300A -- $7900 OBO

    6'0" and 285 lbs.  Even so, the FJR really moves when I pull the trigger.  I pass a couple of slow cars and I look down... I'm doing 103 mph...  Damn!  I let go of the throttle and drop back down to "not going to jail" speeds.   😄   It is funny because I talk about insane acceleration on an FJR...

    I would have tears in my eyes if my 2015 was sitting 2000 miles away...

    FOBO TPMS -- new GROUP BUY -- tire pressure monitoring system

    I just bought two sets of FOBO 2 motorcycle sensors.  Replacement units for my motorcycle and a new set for my son's motorcycle.  I also purchased two T-valves for my son's motorcycle. I'm going to keep using the ones that I already have on my motorcycle.  I got a $33.30 discount and standard...

    FOBO Tire 2 Discount Code

    Yea, I got that same email.  Unfortunately, the discount code only applies to the FOBO Tire 2, which includes four sensors.  The FOBO Tire 2 is designed for cars, not motorcycles.  I tried to apply the discount code to the FOBO Bike 2, but it doesn't work.  I sent an email to FOBO and I asked...

    Power based on key switch position

    I was hoping that there was something in the battery compartment area so I do not have to run a wire to the other side of the bike.  The glovebox power  outlet does make sense, though. Thanks!

    Power based on key switch position

    I searched the forum and I cannot find this answer.  I had lights installed to make me more visible, especially at night.  However, the shop connected the lights directly to the battery.  After a few weeks, I tried to start up the bike and the battery was dead.  It was so dead that I had to...

    Brakes lose pressure if you do not ride for a while?

    Thank you for this advice.  I change my own oil, but I take it to the dealer for service for anything else.  Based on your advice, I am going to learn how to bleed the brakes and simply do it once a  year.  There is no way that I am going to leave a brick on the rear brake pedal.  That just...

    Brakes lose pressure if you do not ride for a while?

    That is what I thought.  I agree that it is not "remotely acceptable from a basic safety perspective".  Time to find a new mechanic.  Thanks!

    Brakes lose pressure if you do not ride for a while?

    I bought a Tesla Model 3 and I absolutely love that car!  I have been driving it everywhere.  Unfortunately, my 2015 FJR1300 has not been getting any love lately.  It sat parked and covered for six months!  I cannot believe that I left it alone that long!  Last month, I rode the bike from...

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    Had a Michelin Road 5 installed as the back tire on my 2015 FJR1300A. RideNow Peoria, AZ charged me $260 installed. So far, I love the tire.

    Location for USB Charger Socket

    I found this one on Amazon with free two day Prime shipping. Thanks for the idea. https://www.amazon.com/TurnRaise-Waterproof-Motorcycle-Handlebar-Cigarette/dp/B078K8WBCJ

    Location for USB Charger Socket

    I can't quite make out the picture. Is that just below the glovebox (closer to the seat)? I pulled off that panel and I did not see enough room (depth) for the USB charger port. I might look again and take pictures to show you what it looks like for the 2015. Hmmm... that's a thought...

    Location for USB Charger Socket

    That is what I am using now. I close the glove box door on the wire going from the lighter socket up to my smartphone mount. It looks like I am bending my door. I am concerned that the glove box will not be water-tight over time. In addition, I noticed that the wire is being gouged by the...

    Location for USB Charger Socket

    Thanks. I have not pulled the dash off. I was hoping someone could tell me if there was room there before I started tearing it apart. Thanks!

    Location for USB Charger Socket

    I searched the forums and I could not find an answer to this question. I purchased this socket for my 2015 FJR1300A: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HPSY596 I pulled the cover off the area that surrounds the glove box, but it doesn't seem that the USB socket will fit there. Where...
