[QUOTE="dcarver, post: 183208, member: 956"] Skooter, you crack me up.. 45 pounds? BFD. [FONT=Verdana]Most FJR pilots could lose 45 lbs by going on a diet, removing 4 gallons of extra fuel, 15 pounds worth of electronic farkles, fork braces that aren't really needed, SmarTire systems, wearing ATGATT, stuffing enough crap into 52 liter top bags to keep 2 women happy on a 1k ride, and enough video gear to make HollyWeird jealous..... OH, and I forgot the 8 pounds of worth of additional lights, brackets, ballast. Oh, and of course a gallon of water. And cruise control systems. And hi way pegs. You get the drift. Seriously, the FJR was too heavy, even back in 03', to be a true sport bike. What it is good at is long distance riding. When taken to extremes the IBA members and wannabees only add weight to the platform. [/FONT] [FONT=Verdana]OBTW I'm just freakin' kidding.Don't dog pile me..yet! :P [/FONT] [/QUOTE]
