how many FJR in the world?

[lele]

Here in Italy very few

more BMW and Ducati

 

[Mihalis fjr]

Also in Greece very few..I don't know how many,but few..

 

[wheatonFJR]

In America, very few.

But we're "special".

I've personally seen at least 50, so there's that.

Ive seen 2 locally. 1 a few times recently and 1 a few years ago. Mostly harleys here.

In another recent thread this was said:

Try 3,000 per year or so...at least in the U.S. I don't know for sure with Canada, but imagine there around the 1/9 or 1/10 ratio with population and add to numbers for even higher NA production well in excess of 3000.

Even though I've never gotten confirmed numbers for any one year it was relatively easy to figure out there were at least 8719 bikes made in a three year period from 2006-2008 via the NTSB ignition recall letters. It's sporadic, but I've included some reasonably considered production numbers for some years in the FJR Model Comparison Matrix and have yet to find anything more credible.

I have one, and saw a bunch of them at EOM

So with that, and my 50, that's gotta be over, what, 60?

Not enough.

More FJRs could change the world as we know it.

How do I know this?

1. I ride an FJR and I've haven't been late for work even once in 11 years. Imagine an ecomomy bolstered by on-time workers.

2. My new boss, Principal Joens, rides one. Under his amazing leadership, our school is doing a much better job educating a economically challenged demographic.

Just imagine if all the principals in America rode FJRs.

3. I'll betcha there's a politician somewhere in America that rides one too.That would demonstrate great wisdom. Imagine our nation if all the politicians... oops: I think I'm bordering on bending one of our rules.

4. You ride one: which makes you smile. Remember the saying that when you smile, the whole world smiles with you?

More FJRs could indeed change the world.

So it's true.

There's not enough.

No...probably closer to 70 at EOM.

I spent a weekend with 13 other FJRs recently...

Getting FJR owners to all form up at one time is worse than cat herding. All group pictures are missing at least 30% of the bikes in attendance. EOM Johnson City, EOM Lewisburg.

Why does it matter how many other people are smart enough to own an FJR, as long as you are?

I can't remember anyone ever accusing a lemming of being intelligent.

 

[lnewlf]

the fewer the better...If I want to be part of a huge group of conforming non-conformists I'll buy a Harley...

 

[wheatonFJR]

I'm just glad enough are continuing to be sold in order that they still want to make them. I've had FJRs now since 2003...I plan to own one until like petey I have to resort to a lighter sporty BMW. May that day be a LONG DAY AWAY.
