I have had the Scottoiler E system for about 2 years on my 2015 FJ. It has worked very well and the chain is always clean. I get very little oil fling. The customer service (in Scotland) is outstanding.
When my bike was transported because of a dead battery, the distribution tube was displaced. I expected to pay for new attachment pieces, but customer service sent me the new pieces free of charge.I highly recommend the product.

I currently have an Aerostitch Darien jacket. I live in SW Florida and wanted a jacket that had Gore-Tex built in waterproof quality. In the summer I wanted to be ready for the sudden rainstorms that typify our weather. I have found it to be excellent weather protection. I formerly used a mesh jacket that required a zip-in liner to keep the rain out. It wasn't practical to have to stop and install the liner when the deluge was about to hit and the outer shell became a soggy mess. Aerostitch has a wide variety of fitments and can be custom made for a perfect fit. Because of the well conceived ventilation system the jacket is comfortable even when the temperature hits 95 degrees.

I originally had the OEM side cases on my 2015 FJ 09. I found them to be well made but functionality was poor. When the bike was on the side stand, accessing the left bag was always difficult. I had to brace the outer clam shell with my knee when loading and unloading. It was also difficult to fully load the bags. After researching other options I selected the Givi Outback Trekker. I have found them to be outstanding in build quality and functionality. I didn't need the removability of the Dolomiti series so the Trekker was my perfect solution. The tie down locations give excellent flexibility. My bike is red and I chose the black color option shown by a previous poster.

I took delivery of my FJ in January 2015 and the battery is still strong. When not in use I keep it on a battery tender.

[div style=text-align:right]I took my first extended ride after installation of the Traxxion Dynamics fork cartridges and Penske rear shock. There was a noticeable increase in handling and management of rough pavement.

I have 2800 miles and no problems. I added a Corbin saddle, ECU flash, Akrapovic exhaust, McCruise Control, Traxxion Dynamics fork cartridge, Penske rear shock and OEM side and top cases. With these additions, it has become my ideal bike.

I have an extra-large full cover from Tourmaster. It fits with the OEM side cases and top case installed. It provides a perfect fit with enough tension to protect from rain.

I have owned the Tourmaster WP boots for about a year. Very confortable for all day wear and extensive walking. It also comes in wide which I found that few do.

Had the dealer install LED light strips in the lens of the OEM 39 liter top case and a 3.25 inch LED light strip on each of the hard bags. Greatly increased visibility to rear traffic.

I am 6'1 and use a Madstad 24" on my 2015 FJ 09. I have been very happy with it. Madstad is a Florida company and had great customer service.
