Nice! I'm hoping to get my new set of Angel Gt's spooned on this week.

Now that you mention it, other than mine I don't think I've ever seen one down your way. I did see a '13 a couple yrs ago in Redline Power Sports but haven't been in there since.

Saw my first FJR while commuting in traffic today. Hwy 520 Westbound about 40th (Bellevue area) about 3:15PM in the cruising lane. The Cherry Red year, rider had a Silver 3/4 length jacket on. I was in my Majestic Blue '08 Altima 2.5 S as I managed to fracture a vertebrae several weeks ago and riding is out of the question. Driving should be out but I am a contractor ( IT Field Tech ) and unless I am in the office I don't get paid. Sucks but that is the way it is. Seattle sunshine today anyway most of the day with heavier showers just to make it interesting. I should be back in riding shape in a couple more weeks - I hope - and by then the weather should be getting pretty nice.

And thanks for that by the way.
I usually see two 13's every day parked around work. I'd have to take the day off to check each of the lots to really give a good count at my site.

Just riding around town and on trips for the last two years - never seen another one unless I'm at the Yammy Dealership. Saw more than a few at the big Progressive Bike Show in Dallas last year. That was cool.

As much as I researched them before buying one, it was easy for me to believe they were common. Such is not the case here. I see more RT's than I do FJR's. I'm in North Georgia.

Here in southern Texas I rarely see one. Mostly see HDs and sport bikes, and once in the hill country definitely mostly HDs.

Seen two yesterday, so I went riding with them for about 4 hours.

I am on the road a lot, mainly two lanes and some freeways in SE Arizona (rural hospice). I see 2-4 FJRs a month. I see many tour groups through the winter, most on Harleys or BMWs. Overall number one bike by far is the HD, probably followed by Gold Wings, a variety of Jap crisers and Victories....Usually see Spyder's everyday....and a Slingshot weekly. I see as many FJRs as Concours and once in a while a Duck...
While not really a bike, those Slingshots are ultra cool.
I pulled into work today on my bike and parked next to a brand spanking new Ducati Monster. Looks like he rode it to work from the dealership.
