    Sold 2007 FJR AE for sale

    My life is changing, so regrettably this lovely thing has to go. Second owner: less than 15,000 miles, garage kept, new fluids and battery. Michelin Road 5 tires with at least 3/4 tread Power Commander, installed before Ivan's flash became available. Makes a huge difference in throttle...

    Going back to an FJR

    I know what you mean. I bought a brand-new Kaw Ninja1000, which is a really fun bike. Fast, and lighter, too. But not as nice to ride as the FJR. So instead of selling the Yamaha, I’ll sell the brand new Ninja, still not even broken in.

The reason the Gen 1 and Gen 2 ECU flashes have not been made available is simple: He has not been able to find the appropriate bikes to test them with on his dyno. Otherwise, he says, the software work is done. It seems to me somebody near him...

    Shifting AE Smoothly and Hesitation at Low RPM?

    I just got a low-mileage 2007 AE, with the auto clutch. It's in fabulous, almost new condition: only 10,000 miles, and the paint and rubber are like brand-new. I paid $6,000 for it out the door, including tax and tags, at a BMW dealership in Maryland. I've got a few questions about it. First...
