[QUOTE="Sportznut, post: 1302955, member: 87028"] Hi All I am thinking about buying a new FJR. My bike I currently ride is a 2005 Honda ST1300. It has been a great bike and is very comfortable but it is time to update. I absolutely love the FJR but I have concern about the size. I am 6'2" 210 lbs with 34" inseam. So I have a torso that is a little bit on the longer side. I really want to ride the FJR long distance I'm not really a sporty rider. I have ridden a couple of FJRs and they feel small to me but I am assuming I can add risers & get a day-long Russell seat to kind of stretch out my riding position to make it more neutral. My question is for taller FJR riders that like to tour more than they like to ride aggressively. What have you done to make your riding position more comfortable? I can do 400-500 mile days pretty easy on my Honda and I'm hoping I can do the same on a new FJR. Any recommendations or suggestions are much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
