Welcome from Northern SC. I hope to see you out there

Always nice to see more SC riders. Welcome!

As a final update: Regarding the turn in at low speed, I replaced the worn battleax tires with some new PR6's and it made a world of difference. Low speed handling is greatly improved and at speed turn in is much more predictable. The 50L top case is great, easily fits my commute needs...

Welcome from just south of Charlotte

Thanks! I've put ~300 miles on it since Thursday and am getting used to the way it behaves. Most of it is just me learning the bike. It definitely takes more effort to move around under 10 mph, and the steering lock is more limited than I'm used to. I also have to learn the feel of the...

Not good news from my dealer. The dealers that have the very few remaining new FJR's are unwilling to do any dealer transfers. My dealer also spoke with the regional Yamaha rep who is very certain there will be no more FJRs being made. This is pretty typical for me; I fall in love with...

Thanks! Yes, the one I rode was a 2016 not a 2013.

Hello Everyone, I've already spent the day perusing the forum and have learned a lot. I definitely love the proper forum design far more than any of the modern social media pages or groups. Thanks so much for all of your contributions! I'm hoping to join the FJR club in the near future. I...
