[QUOTE="FJR2011, post: 1325674, member: 28397"] Well i did it...pulled the trigger on a 2016 K1600GTL today....after 2x FJR's i am changing teams....i went for a trial ride last week and that nailed it for me, WOW!! improved comfort for both riders (i always ride 2-up), Radio, Superior wind protection (actually able to ride with visor up), GPS, improved suspension, etc... Handling is amazing,you don;t feel the extra weight at all, i even dare say it's as maneuverable as the FJR in corners & that 6cyl. spits out [U]LOTs[/U] of power......However, i must admit that it is a bigger bike to move around the garage, but once it's moving...amazing ! IMO i would not compare the GTL to the FJR, they are not in same ballpark, [U]maybe[/U] the GT but definitely not the GTL.....it is indeed more money, but you get much more bike...and the resell value is higher so in the end maybe not so much more money. keep the rubber side down, Ride safe.
