[QUOTE="Marcf, post: 76279, member: 1441"] Fencer - good seeing you at the show. I ended up spending a great deal of time going back and forth between the BMW 1200GT and the FJR just to make sure I am making the right decision by going with the FJR. Only bone I had to pick with the FJR was the lack of cruise control, heated seats and grip heaters as standard/optional features (it seems Yamaha should offer these items as options if they are going to chip away at the BMW market share). At least I can order the grip heaters (according to the guy from Yamaha). I'm accustomed to those features on my BMW K1200LT as they do come in handy for deep winter riding and high mileage multi-day trips. Either way, I'm now convinced the FJR is the way to go and can't wait to get my '06 in early April from Atlanta Motor World in Roswell. It looked like your friend was pretty excited over the GT. Seems to be a great bike but I just can't justify the additional $7k+... See you around, Marc [/QUOTE]
