  1. The best tune-up you can give the FJ09 is a good set of ear plugs.
  2. At this time, I think this is the route for me. Thanks for all the come backs.
  3. What have folks done to improve the rear brakes stopping power on the FJ-09 2015?
  4. They are, call Biker Built Airwings. 1-800-451-9464 ask for Sherrie and tell her you want info on the assembly for a Yamaha FJ- 09 . HTH JD

  6. If you will slack off on the drive chain it will help. I over slaked the chain and started taking out some slack until found the sweet spot. HTH
  7. Member 92 52 posts Location: 72624 Report post Posted just now I have been bouncing around an idea with the local Yamaha shop, which is one of the best shops I have ever been around in my 50+ years of riding. The idea is to put on a time trial for motorcycles here in Newton County, Arkansas. I talked with our state representative and the county sheriff about this; they are both support the idea. We would be shutting down a portion of Hwy. 74 during the event. The idea is just in the talking stage. Is there any interest in a event of this nature? Thanks, JD

  9. It has been almost two years since I got my Terry's custom seat and I can say this seat has been the best I have ever had on a bike. I have had several bikes over the 50+ years I have been riding so I have a lot to compare it to. I am a cheap SOB, but I would spend the money on this seat in a New York minute. If I were you all, I would take a look. Home | terryscustomseats
  10. IT's time to go back to all the places you two enjoyed. I bet you will find her there waiting for you.

  12. One thing you might consider is Terry uses you hight weight and seating position to do your seat. That alone makes it an awesome seat. Trust Terry you will be glad you did. HTH JD
  13. I don't notice any problems with the seat what so ever. It's the most comfortable seat I have ever had.....
  14. I really like my seat, I have about 4000 Mi on it and it is the best for me.
  15. Have you had time to put some miles on your new Terry Adcox seat? If so what are your thoughts.
  16. I know you will be glad you went with Terry Adcox seat. And for $275 dollars including shipping, you can"t be the $$$$ www.terryscustomseats.com

You would be one of the few to make that trip.You might even make the local news paper. I always wanted to do this but don't have the Cojones for it. This brings back so many memories of my younger days so whatever you do I take my hat off to you. Good Luck.
  18. You might need to check your insurance for Canada.
  19. You need a first aid kit and take along some Imodium AD trust me, a tire patch kit and a 12v tire pump, latex gloves, you will need them when your hands get wet and cold. Make sure you have a good rain suit and some way to keep your feet dry. A chain brake and two master links, one headlight bulb. a roll of good duck tape, a pint of snake bite or mosquito dope, I like Maker's Mark. bear bells, no food in the tent or on the bike, and rabbit foot for good luck. My first trip to Alaska was in the 70's I envy you. You might want to take the Cassiar Hwy, if you do, make a side trip to Hyder Ak. If you are tough enough you can get Hydraised, just ask around.
