i've finished the thread last Nov. read abt the seat rest and... what do u call that... the thing you put at the fairing to prevent it getting damaged when tip over. seems quite hard to get them in singapore. sad cos i dun plan to put a top box if i get one and concern abt pillion comfort.

 

if i see a red one on the road i'll give a honk. mabbe it's u... 8)

that thing is called a frame slider.. Can get from motovation.. They advertise in this website too.. Unity motors is one of their distributors.. Last time i ask is 80 bucks including installation.. But must cut hole... Heartache ah.. US got one dun need cut hole one...

Saw a red FJR belonging to a owner of bike shop in AMK. Think it FD23 or something like dat. Happen to be u?

Nope.. I student nia.. No $$$ to have such a nice no plate..

Thinking of getting a top box. The stock matching top box is far too expensive $1300!

 

Do Givi hab special rack for FJR?

The stock panniers are only 39litres each. So, not much things u can squeeze in.

Saw a red fjr at the Looi's motor showroom today. Seems the no ABS version going for $20500(machine price). According to the uncle, it's the last few of that model. No other color available. ABS version coming soon.

[BoonHean]

saw it at Loois on last Saturday too, its a brand new one. boss say its the last piece from their inventory, 2002 model w/o ABS, red.

[speedtriple]

Read in several overseas forums that fjr buyers have to put a $500 deposit to order it. Spore does not seem to have this program. Orders for the 05 model seems to begin in Feb 1.
