[QUOTE="72Duster340, post: 689062, member: 19516"] Before buying my '09 FJR I rode the '09 C14 ABS. The motor had a little more low end but when the cam timing adjustment backed off it was a typical Kawasaki motor they rev to make power. I rode a C-10 for ten years if you wanted more get up and go increase the RPM's. The fit and finish on the C-14 was not as good as the FJR, the paint was much nicer and I personally did not like the single muffler it made the bike look unbalanced. The tire pressure monitor system was nice when I went for the test ride the tires were low and the bike "told" me to have air put in. However I spoke with 4 or 5 owners of C-14's and three of them had problems with tire monitor system already. The K-Pass system seemed like overkill you leave the key in the bike all the time and carry a "fob" to activate the electronics. What happens if the the fob malfunctions how do you get home? Like everything people have different tastes those of us on the FJR Forum have cast our vote as to what we prefer. [/QUOTE]
