Bump! Still available.

Ok guys, based on the lack of response and some additional research I'm thinking KBB is a little optimistic. Price drop to $6,000. Thanks for looking!

Hi Guys, Up for sale is my 2007 Yamaha FJR 1300 in beautiful black cherry red. I love this bike, only selling because our first baby is on the way and I'll be taking a hiatus from motorcycle riding for a while. This bike includes a number of accessories, including the following: - Aftermarket...

Great thread and great story pants! Please continue updating this as time goes on, it's great to read about the journey you're on with your nephew. Good on you for being a true mentor!

Another one I thought of that should be obvious, but I've been dumb enough to screw it up so maybe pointing it out will prevent another from doing so: Pay close attention to the grade of the surface you're parking on, even in a wide open parking lot. Make sure you have an easy route out even if...

Great thread! Mine, which I probably heard here, but which I think about always and repeat often: Assume everyone on the road with you is actively trying to kill you. If you put yourself in a position where it's as difficult as possible for them to do so (i.e. not in their blind spot, not...

Where is it located?

I ended up going with HD Insurance (Harley Davidson Insurance) which is provided by Progressive, was significantly cheaper than every other option I looked at (including Progressive!), and you don't have to have a Harley to get it. I'm not really sure why it's cheaper, but I wasn't going to ask...

Got mine at 28, and it was a great decision!

Jaguar has still got it...

lol... that's exactly what I thought. It gets worse in each picture.

+1 on riding both. When I started looking, I was sure I'd end up with one of the BMW sport tourers. After riding both, I had no doubt in my mind which one I preferred. I found the RT and FJR to be very different bikes and had a clear preference for the FJR. In fact, I thought the BMW GT was a...

GREAT pics of an absolutely beautiful area of the country, GeorgiaRoller! I'd like to print a few of them out nice and big and hang them in my condo, they're that nice! Thanks for posting them, and please keep them coming!

I've been salivating over the pictures of that thing since I found them yesterday. VERY nice looking bike, with what looks like some very smart and excellent design features for rider comfort and convenience. I especially liked this: Definitely looking forward to taking one of these out for a...

Indeed. My experience was that it just built up continuously from when you cracked it open - and the next thing you know you're going well beyond legal limits. It punchy and kept going, but didn't build up to the vision blurring top end like the FJR. Basically, it performed exactly as you'd...

I've ridden the 800xc, and I'll add my voice to the chorus of folks singing it's praises. I loved this bike - the engine is sweet & smooth, handling was light and flickable, ergos were good, and the looks were very nice as well. In my opinion, it had plenty of power for one up riding around...

There, evened it out for ya. ;) It will be interesting to see how this plays out. If it is indeed a band-aid type fix and not a true repair and people continue to have problems after the recall work has been performed on their bike, there will be some serious negative goodwill Yamaha will...

I just got off the phone with my local dealer and while they weren't rude, they did have the same answer for me which is that when they look up my VIN#, this recall does not come up associated with my bike. Seems rather strange, in my opinion. Could it be that Yamaha issued the recall only for...

Thanks Chris! We're doing the ride June 18th and will be leaving from the dubbeljiu. I am lucky enough to have a friend in SF that hooked me up with one of her coworkers that is local and has offered to take me out and show me around with another one of her friends. The more the merrier! As soon...
