[QUOTE="Bill Lumberg, post: 1381217, member: 87479"] Acceleration and power are like straddling a jet engine. My BMW RT was much more flickable, but the FJR is nimble and loves twisties all day long. Even fully loaded, it's fun in the curves. If you are coming from a sport bike, you'll find the FJR perfect. If you are coming from the sport touring side, it may not seem well suited to any sort of distance riding. Many, many of us find bar risers and a proper shield basic requirements, as the stock bike is more sport-with-bags than it is sport/tourer. A lesser but considerable contingent find an aftermarket seat or seat pad and/or peg lowering brackets are needed. [/QUOTE]
