“I think the FJR may be the total package, for me......”
And for a lot of other riders as well.

I'm at the table across from you. As I'm reading the menu I hear you tell the waiter, "FJR, please"!

Alrighty then. I have done about 100 miles of mixed roads with the RS.
Thanks for the detailed write-up. I was kind of hoping you would say something like, "The RS was a torture rack, can't handle it...." but you didn't. So when I eventually replace my FJ-09 this bike will have to stay on the list.

Haha well it's not a race bike so definitely not a torture rack. Now compared to a naked bike it isn't going to be as comfy for sure. It's a lovely bike that is without a doubt! Your comfort mileage may vary.
