[QUOTE="Dennis in NH, post: 882924, member: 27481"] Hi Paul, I got the exact same bike Jun 3 2011 ; the price was advertised as $13,400 OTD here in Southern NH. I got boned $200 on my trade-in because I thought another dealer didn't have any 2010 FJRs left (they would've matched and I would've gotten that $200 more for my trade). But the $13,400 was a decent price (at least it seemed like it compared to others I saw at the time). I never got to test ride and had to live vicariously through the riders here to get a "feel" for the bike. I'm pretty happy with it but had to adjust to it. I'm 5'6" (30" inseam) and I think this bike is a little tall for someone of my size. But I've adapted well enough that it doesn't seem so tall anymore. If they let you ride it, please do it. Then if you like it, you can start acting all goo goo for it but walk out a few times and maybe they'll reduce the price. Anyway, good luck and hope to see you here with extra cash for something called "farkles". NOTE: farkles are things that cost a lot of money but you cannot help but buy them :P . Dennis [/QUOTE]
