[QUOTE="kbuicker, post: 1311193, member: 15122"] Ok fellas, is it too heavy to be a good commuter? It's not JUST good for long trips is it? My commute is about 90 miles, mainly in traffic, but at time open 80mph tollways followed by bumpy backroads. I've always wanted an FJR, [B]and I am considering picking up a 2016 model[/B]... but the lighter adventure bikes (IE BMW R1200GS, BMW S1000XR, Ducati Multistrada, KTM Super Adventure 1290) all seem to be popular these days and offer a whole heap of options with good wind protection. And I know, '[I]whatever fits you best after you ride them all[/I]...' [B]I know this[/B].. but I wanted actual FJR owners to chime in on it's commuting prowess please. [/QUOTE]
