My routine as well!

I agree! They make a big difference. Norm and Lanna are good people!Yep, I went with the Koubalink 2" extenders too. Black Anodized $30 includes shipping!

It's actually easier because you don't have the long feeler to deal with. The sidestand is super easy and can be done without even looking. Kick the footpeg backward with your heel and the sidestand is right there under your boot. About 30 seconds of practice and you'll see what I mean.

They fit and work just fine! A nice upgrade of the slippery OEMs.

I went the S Ten route and thought it was kind of a pain. Took like two weeks to get all the parts from Babbit's Yamaha with $20 shipping. Had to grind both pegs down 5mm as mentioned, I couldn't get the left peg to fit properly with the spring so I gave up and left it in the down position. Bottom line is they were not made to fit this bike but, the first time you get caught in the rain with the stock pegs you'll realize why you need something different. Seems like most pegs are only as strong as the pin that is holding it in place anyway. At some point I'll swap them out for something made for the 09 but, for now they feel pretty good. It takes some persuading on the left side, but the spring WILL fit. Once it's all setup, it's simply wonderful. I'm glad I went through the trouble as the vibration isolation, non-slip surface and look are just perfect!

I don't have any play where it slots into the rubber bumper at the footpeg, but yes, the whole bag can be lifted up maybe 1/2 inch. Perfectly secure really.

There's a perfect fix for those windscreen knobs. http://fj-09.org/thread/963/loose-windshield-adjusters-simple-fix

Interesting, I've not had any issues with bolts, screws or nuts coming loose at all.

I've got the Givi D2122S on mine as well, with FJR side cases. Got it up to 125MPH today and it was stable as a rock with no steering damper. Of course, I was leaning forward behind the screen at that speed.

I was able to use a small rubber strip along the side and it stays in tight.

Ha! Your box came out better than mine! But like yours, mine came out unscathed!

Hey @smiley , look what I got! Did yours show up yet?This screen seems to be about 30% thicker than the OEM screen, and the lines really compliment the lines of the bike. Can't wait to get some seat time behind it this weekend and check it out.Very nice! I'm loving mine in the lowest position.

The SuperTen pegs are the best solution for me. Vibration reduction, traction when I stand up to stretch and look great. Very happy with this farkle.

The parts list is what I copied off of my invoice. Peg angle should work fine, but as soon as I get them on I will post a reply. Clint already has his mounted and has been riding them a while, maybe he could chime in here. Yes, the list looks perfect. The peg mount on the left is actually adjustable, but the right is fixed. Angle is perfect when sitting. It takes some work as you'll have to grind or cut off about 5mm from the new pegs. Then fitting it all on the bracket takes some fiddling. When you've got it done it's pretty tight and wants to bind a bit on movement, but spraying some penetrating grease on the pivot pins and spring made it all work great!

Your oil pan was cracked going over a *speed bump*? Man I didn't realize these bikes were that low. Easy fix nicely documented by Ty. http://fj-09.org/thread/540/low-profile-drain-plug-install

As long as you can get 3 out of 5 wafers to line up, you're good. Just go with that. Remove the other two. Doesn't feel any less secure functionally with the key. If someone wants to bust the lock and they can do with 3 wafers in place, they'd succeed with 5 as well. I've got both side cases and 39L top box working with the ignition key by simply swapping the wafers between the 3 cylinders.

Certainly a fair question. I own both and just compared them on top of each other. The Ermax touring is about 2 inches taller than both the OEM and the D2122S. The Ermax also has a "bubble" center compared to the Givi which is more sloped back. Regarding noise and protection, I prefer the Givi D2122S much more than the Ermax touring and certainly better than stock.

I've used the stock OEM pegs, FZ6 pegs and now Super Tenere pegs. The stock pegs are buzzy and slippery in rain. The FZ-6 are perfect really at a great price point! Good vibration damping, comfortable and not slippery. The Super Tenere pegs provide the same, and are better looking.

I've not heard of anyone having an issue once the "low profile drain plug mod" is done. I modded mine 10 months ago and can tell you that the catcon and header pipes are both lower than the drain plug now.

Agreed. I've been riding with my Neotec for 2 years now. Love it!

I'm 6 ft (or 1.83m) tall. Again, this screen does not create a bubble of still air, but simply reduces the turbulence and noise compared to stock.

No, the air hits my helmet about eye level. As you can see from that one picture, the Givi is about the same height at stock. I wasn't looking for a "still bubble", just less turbulence and noise. Much of that has to do with your height and helmet.

Mine came to just over $100 delivered. You can't get a Calsci shorty or Ermax delivered for that! Also, GiviUSA and US dealers typically charge a lot more than Givi shops in Europe. Check out the price for this simple Versys 650 screen at Revzilla, then the same screen in Europe. I expect this will hold true when the D2122S becomes available in the US. Another nicety about this screen is it's NOT flimsy. It's thicker than I expected. Givi makes a quality product and I'm quite happy with it. Now!! The box suffered a bit in transit, but the windscreen came out UNSCATHED!!! Good thing they had that "FRAGILE" tape on there!
