[QUOTE="Fontanaman, post: 1197309, member: 19354"] Gen II suspension blows. Once you accept that and install after market upgrade it will improve your bike in ways you dreamed not possible. It will put the bike on rails, make it very precise and much more nimble. Before I upgraded the suspension on my 09 it was a lot of work to countersteer on technical mountain roads. I would get tired because I was pushing through a mushy front end. A friend let me ride his FJR one day with an upgraded suspension on a twisty section of road. It took two turns before I knew I had to have my suspension updated. (not an exaggeration - it was that much better.) Tires make a big difference too. I found the Metzler Roadtec Z6 were slow to drop into the turn while the PRII and BT023 drop in quicker. I like the bike to drop in quick with little effort. [/QUOTE]
