    I'm a dumbass

    My spare ignition keys are inside my Givi topcase. My spare Givi topcase keys are in a pan under the seat. If I lose BOTH keys at the same time, I'm hosed. But if either of them bends/breaks by itself, I'm covered (and, frankly, if one is desperate, getting into a Givi topcase is not that...

    2008 fairing screw/bolt missing - where to get a replacment?

    Buying a bag of old bolts actually sounds like a most-excellent idea. It was going to cost me almost $30 just to get 4 bolts shipped. (Thought maybe I'd go to a Yamaha dealer and see what the cost is right at the parts counter, first - maybe this weekend?). If that strikes out, or if the...

    2008 fairing screw/bolt missing - where to get a replacment?

    Thanks! That's it! Neato, I can get it from Amazon for only $10 each. Hey, free shipping. Thanks for the part number.

    2008 fairing screw/bolt missing - where to get a replacment?

    There are three screws on each side of the fairing - in a line right above the turn signals. I just realized I'm missing one! I looked at the exploded diagram on BikeBandit but can't see the bolt size. "No matter", I thought to myself, "the GYSM at home will certainly make everything clear"...

    Lesson learned: Go easy on the key when opening/closing panniers!

    Well, not so much "pulled on the key" as "didn't seek to specifically exclude the key from any of the force of opening or closing" - which I'll be doing from now on!

    Lesson learned: Go easy on the key when opening/closing panniers!

    I discovered today, as the 2nd owner of a 2008 FJR, that I've been sloppy about opening/closing my pannier. Here's the normal usage: Insert key, turn key, PULL ON KEY to raise the flap. Then I insert/remove whatever in the pannier. Close pannier, PUSH ON FLAP/KEY to close pannier. Last...

    2008 FJR - am I missing some kind of bolt?

    Part number: 90109-06037-00 I need two, but ordered 4 so I can put a couple of 'em in my toolkit for later.

    2008 FJR - am I missing some kind of bolt?

    Yup, that's what I figured - I have the GYSM here in my hands but it's not being very forthcoming about the part size/name/anything! Still digging, maybe the part numbers are in a different part than the exploded-view disassembly instructions.

    2008 FJR - am I missing some kind of bolt?

    Answering my own question... Yeah, it looks like it wants the same wide-headed, shouldered bolt that is on numerous other panels on the side of the bike. If anyone has a part number or source, that'd be great. Looks like I need two (one each side)!

    2008 FJR - am I missing some kind of bolt?

    I took off one of the side "vents" or whatever the heck you call the bits that you can wing outwards to control the heat. Still not sure if "out" is "more heat for me" or less, but in any case: When the part is off, I can see a rubber grommet around what looks like (when I peer through it) a...
