[QUOTE="Lawrence, post: 683815, member: 17912"] I made my decision to replace my '90 ZG1000 (with over 110k) early this year, and finally pulled the trigger in april (before the '10 Concours was released and my buddy who works at Kawasaki had warned me away from the Gen I C-14). Even so, my decision wouldn't change based on my riding style. I ride daily, have fun mountain roads an hour away and like to do week long treks. I'm hoping to put 100k plus on the FJR. As such, the fuel range, fuel choice, and maintenance requirements all favor the FJR. Also, as SoCal riding involves lane-splitting, the narrower FJR (I don't ride with side-bags usually, just my Givi trunk, unless a 3+ day ride) also was a big factor. I think we are quitre fortunate that for small differences in priorities, and such low sales volume machines, there are a number of capable Sport Tour bikes to choose from each with their own emphasis.
