Howdy from VA

New here. I have been on fjrforum.com since Nov 2007.

I have a 2007A that currently has brake issues that need to be sorted out, so I am joining here search for information related to my problem.

Well Good Morning. I am guessing you don't have a high post count Over There since your alias does not seem familiar.

Post up in the appropriate area about your brake issues and we will see if somebody can help you. It won't be me, I am of no use to anyone. But somebody here must know something useful.

Welcome to FJR Riders. I'll be looking for your brake post and will be happy to offer whatever help I can. Hopefully you will get more than you pay for.

Cheers!

You can blame me for him posting up.... there was a thread over there about his ABS not working, etc. and it appears there is likely blockage in the ABS unit.... maybe we take a look at (In)tech day.....
Anyway, welcome to the good sandbox!

Below is a link to the lengthy discussion of my issue that was debated and posted on the "other" FJR forum.

http://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.ph ... ha-dealer/

RaYzerman was nice enough to let me know he has an extra ABS module he would sell me for cheap in hopes of fixing my issue. He also alerted to Intech's tech day coming up next month. I am planning on throwing the bike on a trailer and pulling it to the tech day. Hopefully the great FJR surgeons can get me back on two wheels.

Intech: I can't respond to PM yet because I don't have enough replies.....FYI.

If one more post will get me somewhere in life then I must do it.
