[QUOTE="Brad to the BONE, post: 1442813, member: 92908"] I do my own FJR potato chips. Use a Harbor Freight tire changer contraption and a Riderwearhouse balancer. Balance is easy, just take your time. The tire guys at a road race balance them this way in about 3 minutes. I take quite a bit longer!! It’s kind of hard on the rims but cheap! A few extra tire irons help. I have a Gen 1. Can’t complain about anything on this bike (‘04 90k miles) except the heat. It’s like riding a barbecue grill if it’s hot. Did most of the “tricks” not really a great improvement. Did the under tank heat blanket. Definitely an improvement. I’ve heard the Gen 2/3 is an upgrade so I’d go there. [/QUOTE]
