3rd cover is here - #39 in your fiche -Steve

Oh I get it. I have pd way to much to replace the YAMAHA black padded stickers on the saddlebags. Put the saddlebags back on and ride further, thats my solution. . . . . :) -Steve

I agree there are two different parts. Right side are marked FR. Left side marked RR But I have to ask, why bother? You really hate those cut outs? -Steve

Just another gel opinion. The gel insert will pick up heat from both the engine and the sun and hold it. On a ride with say 22-25C temps, your privates will be med rare by the end of the day. The seat will still be warm 2 or 3 hours after you park for the night. Just my 2¢. -Steve

Two FJR’s, both sizes of OEM top cases, over 250,000 km’s, never noticed any issues because of the top case. (Long trips mosly, occasional in town shopping) If your buffeting is head/helmet, then I suggest you begin your personal search for ‘best windshield’. I’m on my 6th, I think I’m finally...

A single data point on Road 5 vs 6. I found the Road 5 wore out quicker than the Road 4’s and the Road 6’s I am using now. Road 5. (One set) approx 8000 km (5000 miles) Road 4 (two sets) approx 10000 km Road 6 (one set) over 8000 km now and still going. Of course YMMV :) -Steve

Maybe I am the only one who missed this boat - Have you checked out tire inflators lately? Not the clunky 12V ones with battery clamps and a mess of wire that only fits the case once. Instead, check out the post COVID crop of rechargeable battery powered handhelds. I have used this product, and...

If memory serves: the ABS lamp, as you found fast flashing turn signals (could be wrong about this) poor performance as lamp housing/internal reflector(s) are not optimized for LED light design/output. I think its safe to say that adding LED lamps generally turn out better than replacing with...

You may wish to do some further reading on this forum before making this change to taillights in particular. -Steve

There is always wrecking yards to check on, like this one. -Steve

News to me. What plate? You might have to shop outside the USA for the replacement rack. Yamaha Canada says 2 weeks, but YMMV. Have you tried Yamaha Sports Plaza ? I have had good luck with them, but call, dont bother with the website. -Steve

Just making sure we are talking about the same thing- The rack that came with your bike takes the smaller top case, there is no non trunk rack. If you want to mount the OEM 50 lt case, you need a different rack, part number is 1MC-248D0-00-00. I googled the part number and found a few in stock...

My problem with gel inserts is how much heat they transfer and hold onto. On a sunny day the gel picks up both engine heat and sunshine. YMMV -Steve

Russell, if your budget can stand it. You dont see many for sale because they get snapped up pretty quickly here. Search is your friend, there must be over 100 seat related threads to look at. -Steve

Another rackless option. -Steve

Try to find something like this?

I took my 665 to Iceland in 2014. By then I was already loading NA maps to external storage. I bought the map set that included Iceland and loaded it on a separate micro SD card. If I recall, the only ‘trick’ is putting everything in a /garmin directory. Swapping SD cards with the 665 off takes...

Lots of old discussions on this forum dealing with and overcoming storage restrictions on 55x & 66x Garmin devices. Here’s one - Post in thread 'Garmin Zumo 550 Memory Limitations' https://www.fjrforum.com/threads/garmin-zumo-550-memory-limitations.144834/post-1374431 -Steve

Contact Custom Dynamics, they will have suggestions/products to slow down the flashing. In my experience, excellent customer service as well. -Steve
