[QUOTE="someguy, post: 1004896, member: 27941"] odd how so many here whine about those who whine about wanting a 6th gear... perhaps we ride differently... or perhaps the sport bike we have/had had a 6th cog or perhaps everything i leave the end of the on ramp, i am looking for one more gear... and if i keep looking for it, seems that the revs/the sound/the vibration of the machine are telling me something that makes me want to shift one more time... i don't need more CC's, or more horse power (not that i wouldn't take it) but the 1300 mill is proven to me by the group present here... i'll not spend more on that alone to me, the dream bike would be the same mill, perhaps tweaked for some whatever but give me a 6th gear give me a more serious looking snout (like it or not, to many of us, how a bike looks is important and the FJR has perhaps one of the most boring headlight arrays i've ever seen... imho) this new one is a step forward give me the heated grips/cruise/and power outlets and a smart dash that can tell me distance to empty, blah blah blah (this is a sport tour) and i'd take a second look [/QUOTE]
