There is no such thing as a 'better' halogen bulb - watts are watts and, with the exception of true HIR technology you can't get more lumens for a given watt using halogen technology. 'White' or 'blue' 55/60 watt bulbs are dyed and actually put fewer lumens out the front. Higher powered bulbs...

As posted by me in that 'stopped by the dealer' topic: So, is 'Tech Graphite' the same as the 'Metallic Black SMX' my Canadian ES is? I DO note that they've done the 'all parts are the same colour' scheme that Canada did this year (the grab rail was silver in EU last year IIRC). Edit: Well...

A bit of time spent with Google shows that the problem is real - as is the gateway to 'Black Asphalt', though apparently there are 'only' about 25,000 users of the database which sort-of belies the term 'vast' as it applies to the intelligence community . . . apparently the database is being...

Strangely, Yamaha Canada refused to acknowledge the exchange program for my machine, even though I was hit by the surge problem . . . and others up here told my THEY got replacement ECUs - Yamaha steadfastly denied my request and denied there was a problem or that anyone in Canada had received...

Quick correction: There was no ECU recall . . . .

My Canadian ES indicates 119 for a real 108 (kph). I've written the speedo healer people to see if anyone has interfaced one to an ES (traction control concerns).

Mobil 1 hypoid gear oil - 75W90 . . . . . it'll get warm since it dissipates about 5 horsepower (~3500 watts) under power.

They are indeed. But for people to get notifications and such they need to be friends with you. You would use that second FB account for your less public postings and that way the people you are looking to shield your postings from will not see them unless they go searching - and if that isn't...

You behave on the FB page? Maybe lately, but if you care to go digging you'll find that there have been quite a few serious rants composed by you . . . and I do not censor what it posted except for the inappropriate SPAM by people trying to sell fake Rayban sunglasses and such. Those I delete...

Well, the solution to that problem is simple. Create a second FB account and make the settings private. You can even use your own name and the same name and photo. Set the privacy of that alter-ego to fully private and use THAT account to interact with the group(s) you are interested in...

There is no privacy in public groups. Plain and simple. It isn't a question of 'trusting' the mods or owners. They're open. This applies to this forum as well. As with anything on the web, if you don't want people to know your business, don't blab it out loud in public. Under any name...

As owner of the FJR Owners group on Facebook I was approached by a member today (perhaps a mask was pulled back by association, having read about anonymity on social networks in this thread) and asked if I would consider taking my group private. No different than this forum is exposed to all...

You can use Google to search the site simply by prepending the string; site:www.fjrforum.com ahead of the rest of your query.

One thing in our no fault jurisdiction is that we don't deal with the other party's insurance - not your fault? Your insurance pays the deductible. However, having been through a couple of claims over the years, insurance companies can be less than honourable - lowballing settlements. DO NOT...

Given full coverage on both bikes, the difference could well be simply that the new bike is worth 5 times what the old one was.

Interesting how people actually believe that raising the price of gasoline will drive down consumption and somehow avert shortages . . . . . the only thing that high gasoline prices do is make oil companies all along the production chain (and by extension the governments that tax them - which...

It is a rumour and will continue to be until someone reputable actually sees one ion person and touches it.

Every year it's the same thing; I know someone who knows someone who has a cousin who is married to the gardener who works at the house of a person who babysits for the secretary of the vice president fo0r glue products at the company that makes the carboard boxes for the cartons they ship...

+1 for what Fred says. Any multigrade oil with 40 as the second number ought to work fine as long as it has the appropriate designation: API - SE, SF, SG or higher.
