First FJR. A bike I have been looking at for years. Owned two Concours 1000's.('86/'06) and really enjoyed those. Then got the adventure bug and moved to KLR's. In 2016, bought a brand new BMW R1200GS Adventure. Great bike, but....the off-roading thing never really happened. Found myself enjoying the road and the only off-road my GSA ever saw was a gravel driveway! Traded it in for an '18 FJR. Just put about 250 on it and feel this is what I have been looking for. Planning on riding the wheels off this one, once I get the ergo's worked out.

thanks everyone, 

 
Welcome! Similar ownership path to mine...K75 to VStrom plus a Griso, now I'm here.  Same plans with my 2018 FJR!

Hello Sam and welcome to the FJR world and forum. I ride a 2009, my second after my 07 was totaled. Bought this 09 with 29k on the clock and two years later have 48k. Yes, I ride. Hope to see you out here, Dan.
