Owned an FJR Gen 1 and Gen 3 for 11 years. Great bike. Added a '13 Tenere early last year with the intention of keeping both. I loved the opportunity to hit gravel roads and 2 tracks so much that I never wanted to be caught on the FJR when the right road presented itself so the FJR began to sit...

I left the FJR fold last year after owning FJR's from 04 to 14. I always prayed for a 6 speed each year. Not to put an extra gear in the same spread of ratios as the 5 but to simply put an overdrive over the top current 5th. That seems to be exactly what Yamaha did. Not sure why they needed to...

Sold!

Just to let you know I edited my original post and added a link to more photos.

THANK YOU! I plan on posting it on Cycletrader once I get a bunch of photos taken. I'll probably hit craigslist and 'possibly' ebay. Not in any kind of hurry and I may have to wait for the bug to hit some folks when it starts warming up. Although I have to say, it's been feeling like spring...

****** SOLD ******* Excellent condition with only 7075 miles. One owner, clear title, always garaged. Yamaha Y.E.S. warranty through 11/23/2017. I’ve pretty much stopped riding it. Have had an FJR since 2004, this is my 2nd one and it’s a great bike. Standard features include ABS, Cruise...

I've owned an FJR since 2003, a 2004 and 2013, and I agree with the OP. The bike definitely wants to 'flop' into very slow speed corners if you don't manhandle the bars a bit. I'm not saying I can't handle the situation and I'm able maneuver the bike anywhere I want it to go at any speed. I'm...

Planning 2016?!! Holy Smoke y'all look WAY ahead! Also glad to see you'll be doing your tour on real motorcycles this time. BTW, A friend has a F800GS here, do they have both F700's and 800's over there? Seems a little redundant. Don, you should start a new thread with a new title and link...

I was thinking about heading north up the coast. Probably about a 250km round trip. I thinks it's fairly mountainous and looks beautiful. I wonder if a scooter would be sufficient for a trip like that? Also, one of the tripadvisor reviewers said that our US licenses aren't valid there and the...

My wife and I will be spending 3 days in Barcelona next May as part of a longer trip. We just finished a spectacular 4 day Tuscany bike rental I was thinking I'd like to rent a bike for a day while in Spain. We're traveling with another couple who won't be riding so we only have a single day to...

I've used the soapy water trick for putting many boat names and car numbers on. Works great. Not sure that's my problem on this job though. I believe I still have another sheet of the material to try again. This time I'll go around the back and trim it so close to the edge. I'd imagine this...

I wrapped it around the edges but trimmed off anything before it wrapped around the back. Maybe that was the issue. I also did a poor job of aligning the weave. On one side it looks excellent, on the other it looks diagonal. I guess I can take them to a professional shop. Do you have a pic of...

Does anyone make carbon fiber replacement pieces for the adjustable fairing blades on the GEN 3? I have the Sergeant seats that looks CF and the Shad Carbon top case with it's CF top panel and thought the bike would look really great with those side panels in CF. I purchased some wrap material...

When I was planning my trip I had originally thought we'd visit Arezzo. Since we weren't too much into the jewelry thing, and it was quite a bit out of the way for that day, and I scrapped it. I always wondered if we really missed out on something. Reading your report let me know I'd made the...

If anyone's interested I'll upload and add a link to the pictures from our Italy trip. They're currently on Google+ but that doesn't work well for me. When I try and post a picture with a link it only shoes a portion of the photo. I was just going to share the whole album but it would then be...

Sorry to hear about the rain but a rainy day in Tuscany is still better than a sunny day at work! I can certainly see some of the advantages of returning to a base camp every day. No packing and unpacking, riding loaded down, etc. We went from hotel to hotel and enjoyed spending the nights in...

Great stories! Enjoy riding along with you guys. How many scooters in your group? I can imagine that would be difficult to manage in some of the higher traffic areas of Firenze. Do you typically do all day loops back to Firenze, or will you be traveling and staying in other towns?
