[QUOTE="Rain Dancer, post: 1255735, member: 28572"] Any bike can be made to fit you. All these suggestions are great, but you could do the same to an FZ6. I have put in a 600 mile day on my wife's FZ6, stock except for the windscreen. I think it handles way better than my FJR, I find it more fun in the twisties, and as long as I am not riding 2 up, love it. My wife and I have done 800+ miles days on the FJR, only changes are a Sergeants seat, Rifle shield and lowered passenger pegs. We ride mostly 2 lane roads, and in a 2 week trip will put on around 7500-8500 miles. The bike is more than capable of it. But then, almost any bike can do it. If I could limit my days to 300 miles (solo) I could do it on my XS650 cafe bike. You seem to like the FJR, it fits you, go for it. A plus over the FZ6 is the seat doesn't get hot in traffic! BTW, I am 54, 32 inseam, and 166 pounds for reference. [/QUOTE]
