The one @ Defu maybe sell metals not Yamaha parts.

 

It should be this Auto Machinery

[flareon1982]

Haha. Thanks man. Would you happen to know where can i repair panniers scratches and crack as well? My right panniers has cracked.

[Asap]

From my experience, crack on fairings can be fiberglass from the inside and repaint on the outside. Not very sure if the same can be done for panniers though logically speaking, should be able to ba.... Anyway, it's worth that u check out with the shops. U could try Goldhill Spray

 

Or this time u can go Defu Lane Teo Spray

[nkan0]

Zamani, don't you ever think about it! Stick to flying. Airsia is giving you VIP card already... wagagaggagag

 

Cant agree more, Zamani - Stick to FLYING

 

Hi, Sir, yes, long time no see...

 

Thanks, I am doing okay...

 

Due to family commitments and the "very-affordable-HDB-flat-in-Sillypore", I had no choice but to downgrade yet again from a Viffer to a CL2B scooter now... Ain't getting any "kick" at all from this "small lamb".

 

Still dreaming of upgrading one day...

 

Your 1200R is a "Beamer"?

 

Wah, can get the most "kick" from this 1200R beast, so is it a "hybrid" betwen a Fabulous-Joy-Ride and a Very-Fabulous-Ride, that can generate such high level of "kick"??

 

Ride safely these few days, as it is always raining...

 

Hi Seah, Me no $$ to buy Beamers lah... stick to a faithful Japanese Ninja. But well, not everyone likes Ninjas, one man's meat is another's poison...

 

hope U enjoying yr AD !!!

 

 

 

The Legend of The Sleeping Tourer lives on .......

 

Hope U can still continue living your Dream!!

Since he is in here, definitely recommend him the Fabulous-Joy-Ride lah, though it is a 1.3L, not a 1L bike like he mentioned he is looking for.

Hi brothers..

 

just got back fm Hatyai.. sadly my left pannier fell off on ta way back.. back track 200km to retrieve it but it was gone for good

 

Yamaha quoted me 1.2k for just one pannier. i was thinking of a few options..

 

1) get a OEM box (1.2K) - not financially feasible

2) get after market boxes (givi / H&B)

3) Get 2nd hand box off ebay or in s'pore n spray paint

 

 

Was jus wondering if u guys got any advice for me??

would greatly appreciate it .. Thank u!!

care to share how it "fell off"?

 

did you sit the pannier properly? any sign of crack or wear off from the hook etc?

 

was this your first time the pannier "fell off"?

 

did you bounce off or scratch against a truck something?

 

you don't know it "fell off"? no sign, no symptom, no feel etc?

 

is this a common thingy that pannier fell off from fjr?

[heng22]

Hi everybody, I am a newbie to FJR ,can someone tell me what / which aftermarket top box will fit and look nice on a FJR. And also the cost of it, tks in advance.

Arul : i placed it in KL & it was secured properly. ta last saw it in was in Ayer keroh RnR. no cracks but can see a slight dent on bike. like it was not sitting properly and rubbing against the ledge

 

was this your first time the pannier "fell off"?

Arul : yes, never before

 

did you bounce off or scratch against a truck something?

Arul :i suspect so.. At certain stretches i was goin @ 200 and maybe on humps ta box could have bounced off. dun think i scratched on truck.

Wife was pillion n she didnt notice anything.

 

you don't know it "fell off"? no sign, no symptom, no feel etc?

Arul : Am shell shocked that, i didn't feel anything. No Loud bang, no fishtail @ that speed, no swaying due to uneven weight distribution

 

 

is this a common thingy that pannier fell off from fjr?

Arul : googled.. found out that ppl actually hav safety pins installed to their panniers for added security. ppl have dropped their pannier and craked it beyond repair.

 

Hope i answered ur Question.

Personally,option 3 will be my first choice followed by option 2. Never 1.

Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.

 

I liked the look of the Givi base plate. Base plate + rack should be close to 300 bucks. Box is cheap.

 

Alternatively, there are quite a few guys who installed the small tin box which looked quite nice as well. But u prolly can only put ur cover and such only.

[Speedpass]

Any idea if the price of the FJR has increased ? I got a quote of 31k otr .

 

Tot should be in the range of 27 - 28k .

Bro..first of all sorry to hear that...i think we should secure the panniers with additional screw or brackets to make it more secure istead of depending the original panniers support.

Anyway i suggest that u purchased the after market panniers which i think its much cheaper than the original panniers. I recommend u the HP junior but i'm not sure whether the brackets fits in the FJR...

Its just my opinion....

 

Cheers!
