Had mine rebuilt under warranty at around 1200 miles. Oil was dripping. I had an '06 FZ1 and I replaced the pump impeller shaft, bearings and seals on that myself (no warranty). It was common issue with "Gen 2" FZ1s. Hope it doesn't end up common with S10, too (although I think they've...

Fitted some K60's as well as Altrider crash bars and skid plate and road up the T.W.A.T las weekend. Took a pretty gnarly two-track ATV trail - can't believe how capable this bike is. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Saw a blue one heading north on I39 in northern Illinois on Monday 6/24 sometime in afternoon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great looking bike. And I had to read the thread subject twice. At the first quick glance I interpreted it quite differently. Without breaking forum rules, I'll just say my first thought was "I do NOT want to see that tattoo".

I had the snatchy off-idle throttle that many complain about (at speed, lower RPM range - throttle transition goes from zero to warp speed). After the ECU flash, it seemed worse, which is not surprising with throttle restrictions removed. I previously had an '07 FJR, and this is a very common...

When I posted the link, I should have mentioned that I own an older BMW - a 1975 R90/6. It has 60k miles and has been bullet proof so far. And retro cool, too. :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a California Scientific/Calsci shield, size "large". Couldn't be happier. In addition to providing awesome wind protection, it has a pleasing shape/look, IMHO. I'm 5'11" with a 32 inseam. I find it great with seat in either position. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I too was considering a new(er) GS. However, tales of service woes got me nervous. Then I came across the following write up. Although one must take it with a grain of salt, it was definitely thought provoking and helped influence my decision to give other brands a look. I think I made the...

Replaced my stock windshield with a Calsci. Perfect. Rode in strong winds today and the crosswind and gusts from behind were noisier! Also added a waterproof iphone mount.

Not to get off topic, but regarding the "snatchiness" off idle mentioned above...this was a popular topic amongst our FJR1300 brethren. I owned an '07 FJR a few years back and that bike had an extremely binary off idle throttle feel. ECU remapping did nothing to help it. However, a popular...

Got my flashed ECU back from avc on Wed. and finally had a chance to get a 150mi ride in today. I couldn't be happier! I can't give a full review quite yet, as I'm still in my engine break-in period and didn't want to over do it. That was realllllly hard to do in S-mode. Its just flat out...

ECU Removal Trick/Hint Wanted to share a trick to removing that troublesome allen-head bolt that is accessed from the fork-side of the battery/fuse compartment. Seems lots of folks have trouble reaching it. In addition to the fasteners that you have to remove to reach the ECU (plenty of other...

If wanting a little weather protection, you can't beat this: http://www.amazon.com/Motorcycle-Handlebar-Tough-Mount-iPhone/dp/B00B4TZ1M8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1395002028&sr=8-2&keywords=iphone+5+motorcycle+mount I had one of these on during a torrential rain storm that did not let up - this...

Thanks, all!
