    High density motorcycle storage

    So I know that with an 07 FJR I should be happy, but I just have the "one more bike" syndrome. The FJR works great for two up riding and is comfortable and competent. No complaints what-so-ever...except that I find myself wanting a Ducati 1198 or BMW K1300S, or... I suspect most of you know...

    Isolated interface cable (electrical question)

    So I spent yesterday getting all the permanent wires run to my Starcom1 Digital. Everything's neatly in place and wrapped in heat shield tubing. I have two cables running under the tank and up to the front of the bike (one for the iPod, one for the Zumo) and one running to the rear (passenger...

    Oops...replacement for rubber cap on throttle body

    So last night I decided to sync the throttle bodies on my 07. Thanks to all the helpful info on FJRTech I had no difficulty getting the actual sync done. The problem arose while putting the bike back together, specifically while replacing those little rubber caps that go over the nipple of...

    Where did all the oil go?

    I did the 600 mile oil change on my new 07. I actually found it a lot easier than on my old FZ6 thanks to all the helpful hints on here for keeping the fairing clean of oil while changing the filter, etc. Having the drain plug in the bottom and not on the side also helps. I put it on the...
