[QUOTE="karnal, post: 1138447, member: 29429"] Yeah; I agree the prices are high for as "generation old" as the bikes are. They're at dealerships though, and the current position I'm in I don't have cash - but will have any sort of loan paid off real quick on a used one. I'm basically tossing the idea back and forth between a 2014 and any used ones I can find. I don't need one RIGHT NOW, but I've also not even ridden one yet. Just allured to the Yamaha brand - and from what I'm reading about all other machines that catch my eye, the FJR has the most power, the most creature comforts and the best reliability out of the group. I looked at a new CTX1300 last weekend - and boy is it sharp, but no ABS, weak windshield and lower power than I'd expect out of their 1261cc engine is a no go. Especially when I know the dealer isn't going to budge from MSRP of 17,500 on it. An FJR1300ES should run me less than that - assuming I could find one and get very decent financing.... [/QUOTE]
