[QUOTE="Franko, post: 570928, member: 17767"] I ride a 2006 FJR AE and a just got a 2008 FZ1 a few weeks back. I haven't really racked out the FZ much over 6K yet, but my impression is that the FJR is considerably faster with much less effort. I usually cruise city streets mostly in 3rd up to about 40 mph it has lots of scoot without doing anything but twisting the grip. I have to pay more attention to the revs on the FZ and it doesn't have all that much below 5K. The 150 or so extra pounds are apparent on the FJR, but mostly just when you have schlep it around with the motor off. It almost needs a reverse. You definitely need to back it in down sloping parking spots. My fleet. [IMG]https://i680.photobucket.com/albums/vv168/frankoart/FZ1_4-13.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
