Designs are good I think.  Not sure how it would sell but how about an embroidered collared golf/polo shirt?

 

Opinions?  Something to it or complete bollocks?

 

No sightings in Dallas/Ft. Worth Area.  However I’ve not seen another FJ-09 or Tracer 900 either!

We definitely need shirts and hoodies that's still say fjo9, none of this Euro mt-09 Tracer crap for us muricuns!  😎

A color shot of a 2015 red FJ crank over in a turn would be cool as well as possibly a 3D cutaway view of the CP3 engine

Will you be posting possible designs before they go on sale?

 

I like the idea of an option highlighting the engine.  I’ve always dug this Triumph design 

 

Here’s what I have https://www.customled.com/pages/custom-led-blaster-x-motorcycle-tail-lights and I’m satisfied.

• 2015 FJ-09 purchased new April 2016

• 35,300 miles 

• year round riding - commuting, weekend jaunts, occasional multi-state trips and rallys.  I don’t baby her but no hooligan stuff.

• ECU flash, Akrapovic exhaust, various bolt-on mods

• have followed Yamaha maintenance schedule.  No mechanical issues so far.  Replaced chain at 20k miles, have had valves inspected and throttle bodies synced.

This is an outstanding modular helmet, superior to my previous flip front Schuberth in every way.

Have you considered Kriega https://kriega.us/bike-packs-1/? Excellent quality, modular system allows mix & match of varying bag sizes, quick on/off the bike.

Anyone running this? It operates the high beam bulb at a lower setting in addition to the low beam.

Cruizin needs our financial support to launch the new forum version. He's got the teespring thing going which will net him a few bucks, but a continuous revenue stream is required.
 
On another motorcycle forum that I frequent it is common in the classifieds section for sellers to donate a percentage of their sales price to admin; 10% is standard. The fact is these transactions would not happen without Cruizin.
 
We enjoy a professionally managed, trouble-free experience. He also has our backs on security. Paying for what we use is the right thing to do.

 

 

Same here kiwicanuck. I actually look forward to commuting.

I'm going to order one.

Time for a review of the Shoei Neotec. I've put more than 7,000 miles on it and I am very impressed. It's better than my Schuberth S2 in every way. Particular strengths:
 
- Superb ventilation. Air flow is very noticeable across top of head when sweaty
- Comfort. Firmly supportive and cushy at the same time, The ear cut outs are positioned just right, my ears always slide right in, I imagine it would easily accept Bluetooth speakers.
- Smooth, quiet flip,up action. This is my first modular helmet and it is the way to go especially for touring. Really useful at gas and bathroom stops.
- Best sun visor I have used. Excellent clarity, smooth operation, dark without effecting vision.
- Hi viz option
- Weight feels the same as full face helmet, even over multi-hour rides
- Liner removal is easy enough; ditto the visor
- D ring buckle (I didn't like the Schuberth ratchet style)
- Pinlock insert is included.  After using this you'll never do without
 
If it's in your price range give it a look. At a 54 cm head I straddled the small and x-small size. I went with the x-small and it has broken in nicely. A few hot spots early on but no more.
 

Coppell, TX 20 miles NW of downtown Dallas

I will be getting a Neotec next week. I've tried on a size small (which is comfy) but the Shoei size chart puts me at the high end of an x-small. The local Cycle Gear location is bringing in an XS so I can compare.
 
This will be my first modular helmet. I have a long tour scheduled for July so the time seems right to make the switch.
 
I'm going for the brilliant yellow color. My new jacket lacks hi viz, pants are black, and bike is matte grey. I feel like I might be blending into the road.

I had this stalling problem with my Street Triple R. The source was never definitively ID'd but the suspicion was throttle bodies. My engine would cut out usually when slowing to a stop with clutch engaged, and a couple of times on the freeway while slowing in traffic.

My previous ride was a 2012 Street Triple R and I agree with your observations alejandro. I was most surprised at how the FJ-09 likes to lean over even more than the STR. I'm 1500 miles in and the transmission clunkiness is smoothing out.
 
 

Greetings FJ friends from Coppell (near DFW Airport). cman that might have been me - my office is on Walnut Hill near Greenville. I don't go east of 75 (I think Walling is near White Rock Lake) during my commute, but have been there on the FJ-09.
