  1. Dibs on the 39L top case, do you by chance have the part number? Want to verify it will work with my 2015 FJ-09 with Yamaha luggage rack. Edit: After researching, I'm 98% sure it'll work between the FJ-09 and Tracer.
  2. Fitted Yamaha OEM softbags, missing the plastic buckles to keep them extra secure, need to find some in a store locally, which is proving more challenging than expected.
  3. Installed Givi crash bars, and mounted Rivco black anti-vibration pegs to them for those long distance cruises. Just under 2 months of ownership and the bike is near complete. Will be doing another post on all of the mods so I can keep track of them as time goes on.
  4. Installed the Cruizin cruise control today, went without a hitch besides figuring out where all of those fairing bolts went. Cruise programming went effortlessly first try, and didn't even have to make any adjustments. Talk about a weird feeling engaging it for the first time! Did an hour ride afterwards and wow does it make those longer cruises so much more enjoyable.
  5. Cleaned the wheels (Gunk engine degreaser works miracles.), installed my Ram mount x grip which is mounted from the handlebar clamp bolt, fitted an OEM luggage rack and soft bags. Rain-X'd the shield and mirrors. Cruizin's cruise is going on Tuesday, can't wait!
  6. Mounted a puig wind deflector on my Givi screen, Yamaha OEM soft bags came in the mail today, purchased the mounting kit for them today. Love the size of them as they're not too big and look great on the bike, I'll keep them on all the time.
  7. Nope! haha. Found it from an online retailer for $860 shipped. Got a link?
  8. Installed a set of eBay shorty levers, and practiced my wheelies
  9. I'm from MI and occasionally split. On the maiden voyage home after picking up the bike in Kentucky and riding it back (7.5 hours straight) I didn't hit traffic except when I was 30 minutes from home in 35 degree weather. I was ready to get home and wasn't about to sit in the cold during rush hour, so I split for a few miles, got a few honks, but no police (then again Detroit cops have a whole lot more to worry about than a lane splitter).
  10. Nice! Ogio makes some quality stuffs. Just an FYI for anyone interested in the bag above, they can be had on eBay for $74 shipped, it's got great reviews, just had to order one. https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/291667257873
  11. Thanks a lot for the feedback and specific info, I appreciate it. I'm going to be picking one up, it's the best looking touring windscreen IMO. Plus Givi quality is always top notch.
  12. Any updates on how this screen performs? Looking at picking one up but would love some feedback. How is fitment, I'm 5"8 really curious if it'd be in my direct line of sight. Also how does it look on the bike? I'm all for function over form, but at some point a massive windscreen looks down right silly. Mike
  13. Picked up my "new" FJ (213 miles on the ODO) and rode 371 miles (7.5 hours) from Hazard KY to Detroit, MI in one go with a few breaks here and there. The bike handles great on the freeway, but I already despise the windscreen. At 5'7 I was getting blasted between the eyes with wind, especially whilst passing semi trucks. Soon to come: new windscreen & a quicklock tank bag (thinking SW-Motech).
