I have toyed with the notion of selling my 2005, But it does everything so well its hard to let her go. I just got back from 11 days on the road, 17 states, and a SS1000 in route. Rode over 4500 miles on her. I love my FJR. I stopped to check out a new helmet on the way home and the salesman tried to push a connie 14 on me. Not a chance. Too many shortcomings on the Connie 14. I will probally ride my FJR till the wheels fall off her.

Welp,
I love this place. The FJR-dinstas are going to get up-in-arms now! Isn't an FJR like a really big moped? One of those 650 Burgmans? That was my experience. I've driven one.
FJR  So, this little Burgman has more power than your B12S  |

Mine is for sale... I just have a history of changing bikes every 3 years or so. Nothing wrong with the FJR, just ready to try something else. I'll bet a lot of folks are in the same boat, just ready to try something else.

My friend just traded in his '09 C14 and '09 FZ1 for a '10 FJR. Looks-wise, I actually like it more than the C14.

Actually the tassels go on the clutch and brake levers.
What's a clutch lever??  Nice job on the thread, Country. Seems like some of the folks don't know you very well. Cheers, Joe |

Over here, they are called FJs.
They are also called "boring as fuck".
If it's boring you are likely doing it wrong (same goes for riding) |

Yes, we all wish we had one....regrettably there are not enough to go around. That is why I wonder why people are selling them.
Lets see...I had six beemers, managed to put over 50k on several of them. Got rid of all of them finally. Then I got rid of my old FJR because it was time for it's 78,000 valve check and I was too lazy to do it, after all, have to do them every 26,000 miles! Oh, also got rid of it because it had a clutch lever....my new AE is everything the '04 was not and more. So go ahead, ask me why I dumped...er....sold my beemers. |
