1) Yup bar riser do help to ease e pain but e handle bar position can be adjusted so y not u try it 1st.. Btw bar riser came with diff height so choose wisely, u can google/ebay, there's plenty of bar riser out there for fjr,

 

2) 2 factors.. Suspension (front n rear) n tire pressure .. "play" with ur suspension n set it to ur liking.. Suspension setting varies from rider to rider.. Does e front n rear suspension been service b4 ? All tis factor plays a part bro

 

Btw nothing is free bro .. Knowledge is priceless (earn it e very hard way) but whether its worth to share is subjective coz if u send to shop, definately u gotta pay for it

[ooitn]

100mph=100 mile? try to slow down abit for you new ride..give you some time to use to it.

2)Suspension rear can be serviced ?? hmm tyre pressure i pump 250 , 290... anyway how do i tune the suspension to my liking or do i have to bring to shops for them to adjust for me ?

It's stable..not to worry.

1. Tyre pressure

2. Tyre balancing

3. Weight distribution(maybe u load 1pannier only)

4. Tyre size

5. Rear suspension setting(hard/soft)

6. Front fork servicing

7. Throttle Body Sync

 

Your seat can cut cushion.. But beware when u go touring u might feel uncomfortable.

Stock is usually and most likely the best as as much research has been done before manufacturing.

Same goes to your windshield..

 

Hope I help a little..

[ooitn]

What is not stable about it....did you skided? lost traction?....

May be is you that have not used to the beast yet.....before you do anything to the bike make sure you know what to do..

others are not you....so ensure engine is serviced, tyres are OK, brake is there....and take it slow.

May be is the strong cross wind.....who knows.

I usually pump using the pressure stated at the swingarm.

 

Servicing usually at unique..not promoting them.. Can ask others for the workshop too..

 

Bro.. U do know I've sold my bike, right? :/

 

It's not a mthly thing to do..so I don't remember..

ohh ohh okok can can =) .... wad i mean not stable is that each time i go pass a sight bump i feel myself floating and also the front part of the bike quite light.... i just changed brand new tyres ...

[aminnurasyid]

And the last factor to add is the rider....make sure u control the bike, and not the way round..

FYI, FJR weight mostly is at the front..that's y many will need to change front tyre more often..n will usually wear off on the right due to the weight of batt..

you should really keep your fjr that time ... then we could discuss... omg if you say front is heavy which means definately my fork got some problem ??

If e front quite light that means e rear is heavy or e front preload/rebound was set to hard.. Best, set to original setting (search for it bro ) then from there u can 'play' with e setting.. Again like i said nd to chck e condition of ur fork/rear suspension n best to service both 1st then set to e original setting.. Cant go wrong by doing e procedure.. Else, change to ohlin, powerrrrrr !!! Hehe
