[QUOTE="danh600, post: 1213050, member: 86538"] Stock FJR. M109 has after market exhaust, intake and "power chip". Obviously the FJR would out handle the M109. How about flat out race? Would the FJR be faster off the line, 1/4 mile, top end? Co-worker has M109. Says it does 140 before he even knows it. I have ridden cruisers. If he is hitting 140 it's with a little work and it's probably pretty unstable. I know the FJR is going to be a nicer ride at 100+ for sure. My Honda cruiser is flat out scary at anything over 90. The FJR feels the same at 90 as it does at 50. I rode the M109 in a big parking lot. It's pretty torquey (is that a word), but not sure it's faster then the FJR in any distance. Thoughts? My riding different bikes is pretty limited. Lots of miles but only on a handful of bikes. It has one of those big fat tires on the back. I was surprised how well I could turn it around at parking lot speeds. [/QUOTE]
