  1. Bought one of these myself but I can’t seem to mount it on my 2015 FJ09. Front holes line up perfect under the seat but the rear ones don’t line up with the mounting points for the passenger handles. It looks like it was machined incorrectly and they face a bit too inward. It didn’t ship with instructions, just two longer bolts, two long spacers, and two washers. I figured it looked straightforward enough. I reached out to T-Rex Racing to see if they had any tips or next steps. I’ll update here when I get more information. Besides not fitting on the bike it’s exactly what I wanted in a rear rack.
  2. Short trip south today with my buddy and his Street Triple. Took a rest break at the National Museum of the Marine Corps and traded bikes for a little while. Security didn’t seem to enjoy our two loops around the parking lot but we were able to snap a picture.
  3. Thanks everyone, I searched for the FJ09 manual on that website and placed an order.
  4. My buddy that rides a Street Triple is all torso and no legs. When he tried my FJ09 for the first time he stood on the left peg and did a ninja kick. Hope you know karate! My own height is all legs so I have no issue (though I kick my tail bag from time to time).
  5. Hello! Been following this forum for a few years when I decided it was time to move on from my Harley FXR to something a bit sportier. I've been riding since 2012 and got a 2015 FJ09 last Fall. It's the bike I've always wanted... upright but sportier seating, room for luggage, windshield, and comes in red. But seriously it is ALL about that triple engine. What an absolutely inspiring machine. I want to thank everyone on this forum for the vast wealth of knowledge. I felt like I knew my FJ09 long before I got on the saddle. I'm looking forward to hearing your stories and learning so much more.
  6. Hello! Long time lurker and first time poster here. Bought a 2015 FJ09 last Fall. I'd hate to revive an old thread but better than posting a new one... Does anyone know where I can get the OEM service manual for the 2015 FJ-09 as of 2021? I'd especially prefer a hard copy but any recommendations would be great. I've seen some links on eBay for a PDF but before I jump I want to make sure there aren't any better options. Thanks in advance!
