Hi,

 

Saw a black FJR1300. Is this a stock colour? This black one is 2 yrs old selling at $17k. Skidded once before.

 

Can advise on what to look out for when viewing the bike?

 

Tks.

i'll give this a miss if i were u

 

my fren's brother-in-law juz bought a 1yr old black fjr1300 for 18+k o.t.r. accident free.

[omnislash]

ya.. i got mine for 20K.. 3 months old.. u haf to be patient.. A good deal dun come easy, but they do come..

[omnislash]

So how? Anyone fixed the frame sliders already?

 

I asked for a qoutation from unity motors, They qouted me $85 inclusive of installation. I should be installing soon.

 

However, bikejohnny.com are selling for 40 pounds (SD$100+?) or so. But theirs is the R&G.

 

I really wonder if the quality varies..[/flipv]

3 of my frens did the sliders.

Cost is ard $65 for the motovation sliders, but got to buy ur own spacers.

 

Then got to drill holes in both the fairing.

If ask shop to drill, is $20. Or u can DIY.

[omnislash]

i wish to but no tools to drill..

[j1m]

very interested 2 fix the slider oso, but the thot of drilling a hole on my 2weeks old bike...

 

btw, has any1 duplicated his keys b4? i was told gotta bring the 'red' key along, buy the key fm HL n do the 'programming' wor...

[omnislash]

Izit only apllicable for 03 version and above?

 

Mine only got one key, the normal one.. I dun think they got the HISS function.. Maybe they copy Honda for the ABS version..

[omnislash]

 

CAUTION:

In order to prevent clutch slippage(since the engine oil also lubricates the clutch), do not use oil with a diesel specification of "CD" or oils of a higher quality than specified.

 

What engine oil u all use? Basically, i think its quite hard to find an engine oil with API CC and below... They are super obselete liaoz...

sorry, i dunno wat is this API CC thingy, mayb other expert can advise

API stands for American Petroleum Institute. It sort of provide a standard for all if not most oils.

 

Engine oil for gasoline engines are rated S().. Our FJR are advised to use engine oil with API standard of SE and above which is not much of a prob since most of the engine oil in the market now are easily SF and above.

 

However, some oils can be used in diesel engines as well which haf a rating of C(). Our FJR are advised not to use oil with diesel rating of CD and above to prevent clutch slippage.

 

So for eg, If an engine oil that says, meets the standard of API SG/CD, we cannot use although SG is much higher than SE cuz we're restricted by the CD.

 

If anyone who dun agree can pls enlighten?

BTW, should'nt u be using mineral oil for running in?

(all FT/FU plate)

What u mean by conventional way??

 

I understand this is the correct way of doing it. Its mounted to the body frame, and this is the best spot for mounting.

[omnislash]

sorry ah...see wrongly..
