[QUOTE="st4gary, post: 1314328, member: 260"] I bought one in August. Fell in love with the look/style of the bike when it was release and it appealed even more when I was able to see on in person last June. I had an opportunity to test ride on in August and bough tit on the spot. It replaced a 1st gen Multistrada that I'd had for 4 years. It's my fun weekend bike and summer commuter. Still have the FJR, love them both. Buzzy, a bit. Re torqued a few things, put one some real bar end weights and I'm happy with it. Of course it's subjective. At 200lbs plus gear I'm also satisfied with the adjustable suspension. It handles 2-up real well. Had Seth make a seat for it last fall. Have to make a run to UT in a few weeks and plan on taking the XR instead of the FJR so we'll see how it does after a few 400-600 miles days. I've had more fun with bike than any I can remember. No regrets! [IMG]https://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd229/st4gary/S1000XR/20150731_094331.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
