Well I lasted exactly one week without a bike! I picked up an 07 FJR1300 Saturday. Just paid my $12 renewal so I can keep my eye on things here . Joined the FJR owners forum, they've been good to me so far with my many questions... And a couple are or were venture riders as well. (I'll send them over if they aren't already here) Anyway... The FJR is an amazing machine. Although, no auto canceling signals, no real cruise control, no carbs to sync, no stereo and no cassette deck! Thanks for yeArs of support. I'll stick around ! Andrew

Thanks everyone. Guy came tonight, stayed firm and it's done at $6500 cash. Heck of a nice guy too. There are good people out there on Craigslist ! I'll stick around the forum. Told myself I was getting out of biking, but I'm eyeballing an fjr1300 ...... To be continued

Thx. Ya that's a great price. I'm feeling mine is fair but will stay firm.

Well said. Thx. I'll be very cautious.

Hmmm. Well I'm in no rush and don't need the funds for any particular reason. Ya I wonder if these guys will show, one guy was very convincing. Well appreciate the input !

Found this guys Venture with Peacemakers on YouTube. As you noted, hard to judge by a video but maybe it helps. [ame= ] [/ame]

Some of the LEDs in my spoiler light bar went out. I spoke with a smart friend of mine in electronics engineering who suggested I simply reflow the solder on each side of the LED as over time, high vibration and likely not the best quality, the solder could crack. He was right. I touched a hot solder iron to each side of the faulty LEDs, I presume that resoldered the joint and that solved my problem. Might be worth a try. Andrew

Thanks team! I went with C, horizontal , bottom edge of hard bags. Have them mounted and almost done with wiring. I'll post a video tomorrow.... Thx again for all the suggestions Andrew

Wow, that's impressive!

A. 1 b. 3 c. 7 Thanks for the pics and advice. Seems like C is leading the poll. I like both for various reasons, many brought up here.... Ive temporarily set up both for a better visual.

Good Pick up! However these strips can be bent around a can or angled a bit as I would need to do in config C. Thx
