[QUOTE="FJReady, post: 835432, member: 465"] Congrats on the new bike. It's a great machine, even for an old guy. I did the modified Moto-Man break in that I found www.fjr1300.info many years ago. 6.5 years and 70K+ miles later my '05 bike is rock solid. No tick, no using oil, no engine trouble whatsoever. I did replace CCT as a preventative measure at ~ 50K. Mostly because of some horror stories reported here. I believe that I had to keep engine RPM under 6K for the first 1000 miles. After that I rode it like I stole it. No problems. Of course you have a sissy Gen 2 bike so your results may be different. (at least you don't have one of those detuned French bikes) FWIW, I rode across Idaho a couple years ago. Nice place. Enjoy your new ride! [/QUOTE]
