    I rode my new FJR home from the dealer today - Clunk/rattle!/lower fairing issue?

    As already noted, the dealer installs the front tire/wheel. Check everything related, pinch bolts, axle nut, caliper bolts, etc? -Steve

    I rode my new FJR home from the dealer today - Clunk/rattle!/lower fairing issue?

    Congrats on new bike. Off topic, but anyway, make sure you get the third lock set in case you ever purchase an OEM top case. On topic, ignorant guess, but is the battery tied down correctly? -Steve

    Drive train "crashing" when engaged on a cold engine

    ^^ As above. Some report that pulling the clutch in 3 or 4 times before engaging first gear minimizes the clunk. -Steve

    "Jumping" FJR

    You can do this, there will be an arrow molded on the tire sidewall. Make sure its pointed in the correct direction, ‘forward’. Something like this : -Steve

    Both headlights, at the same time?!

    Does ‘look it over’ translate into just checking for thrown codes? Maybe there is a forumite in your area that has the gear to assist you with that as a first step? -Steve

    Both headlights, at the same time?!

    Yes, but not for the reason you think. I had the extended Yamaha warranty, so it was their dime. Actually, I think the dealer was quite happy for this job. Mother Yamaha did not want to replace the headlight unit and let the dealer bill many diagnostic hours. The dealer had the bike for about...

    Both headlights, at the same time?!

    Extremely low MPG

    Read a few of the many posts on this topic and you see numbers that group around 50 miles/80 km. As many have said - ‘your mileage may vary. . . . .” -Steve

    Advice

    Should I do the Ivan re-flash or go in for the second recall

    The second ECU flash undoes what was changed in the first ECU flash that was part of the transmission recall procedure. You will end up with the ‘stock’ Yamaha ECU programming. The Ivan flash offers a host of other (non stock) changes that may or may not appeal to you. Dont bother with the...
