[QUOTE="Streethawk, post: 1142765, member: 82125"] Change the speedometer (ref. Gen2). To have a speedometer that goes to 180 mph is a little silly. If possible, my speedometer design wouldn't "peg". Take it 90... then back 0 and light up a "10" next it. Then put a "1" next to each subsequent number. Yeah a digital speedo would be more practical. But I just thought my idea would be cool because I've never seen it before. Most of us run up to the triple digits occasionally. But there's still about 40% of the gauge not used. Other than that, Redesign the saddlebags for more storage. I like the modular purchase approach to buy the bike. Like cars used to be. Some want/like linked brakes, some don't. ABS? Yay or Nay! Maybe someone doesn't want saddlebags on the FJR... ((shrug)) To be able to customize a bike more than the heated grips, seat thickness etc... options that some manufacturers have would be really neat. However. Not gonna happen. At that point, the Dealer Showroom starts offering manicures, free lattes and popcorn while you "shop"....[IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/mda.gif[/IMG]This thread just seemed more of a "fantasy" thread for the FJR.
