This, combined with heavy throttle action has dampened my enthusiasm for FJR. Dealer's view is that these are usual characteristics of the model however I've found info on FJR users forum which points to these being common complaints. One suggestion is to fit G2 Throttle tamer from Ergonomics as this alters the length of cable being used when first opening throttle, therebye giving much more rider control. ...

If you haven't had a letter yet it's something about the rear brake pedal. Apparently it's possible for a small stone or pebble to be lodged between the pivot which could make it difficult to disengage the rear brake! On a slightly different note I contacted Shirlaw's to arrange the recall and have the bike serviced. They've got a free pick up and delivery for services this winter ...
