  1. For those of youse who are on the fence about buying either the FJR bag or the FJ bag, you can purchase set of unpainted FJR bags for the price of FJ bag (Painted ones are too damn expensive).  Unpainted FJR bags actually have two tone colors. Base of the bag is plain unpainted black plastic just like FJ bags and the lid has matte sheen to it.  I think it actually blends in nicely with rest of the bike.  I have a red FJ and set of unpainted FJR bags and it looks great! So whether you have a grey or a red fj, you can't go wrong. 
    You just gotta get in line for the lower mounts like I am!
  2. That 80mph warning was on every accessory I bought for Tiger 800XC.  Yeah cause OEM foglight caused so much drag that the bike was unstable above 80mph........I commuted sometime at 85mph on highway with no issues.  It's just a lawsuit prevention jargon they put on to cover themselves.  Take it for what it's worth.
     
    Also, I often do most of my riding on the backroad and I rarely do any speed anywhere near 80mph and my work requires me to drive at sane speed so I seldom ride at crazy speed....
  3. I just got myself a Sidi Armada. Comes with removable ankle/shin protection. Now I have option to go light and go commuter boot style and then go adventure style when I feel like it. I was riding with Sidi adventure gore-tex but that was too hardcore for me. I'm gonna put it on classified soon.
