[QUOTE="1maxman, post: 1163798, member: 86936"] Well, just got home from my first 1000 mile ride perched upon my FJR. My girlfriend (she rides a star 950 tourer) and I just arrived home from a great trip from Lake George, NY to Bar Harbor, ME. We avoided through ways as much as possible on our trip there, what a great ride. Spent 11 hours in the saddle that day (450 miles). Stopped a lot because her bike will only do 160 miles before the light comes on, and we had to take water breaks. Only had 1 mishap, 2 jerkoffs decided to play hit the FJR it's brand new. Well they didn't get me but as many of you already know the bike isn't the best in parking lots. Needless to say I dropped it on its right side and scraped her up. I picked her back up brushed her off and went ape on the guy driving a Mercedes that was trying to run me over. Other than that the bike was great, the seat was fairly comfortable but very hot, and I averaged 50 mpg for the entire trip. [/QUOTE]
