[QUOTE="OrangevaleFJR, post: 174483, member: 548"] How did we start comparing the FJR to Goldwings in lean angle? Common, we might as well compare a Impala with a Camaro Z28. This comparison started with the bikes in the FJR's class being discussed. In particular, if the K1200S side cases hit before the peg feelers then I think they have a design problem. If the lean angle of the FJR is not as great as the other bikes in our class, I haven't noticed it in the twisties when riding with them. Some comments have been made about body position, path of turn etc...many times I scrape the pegs it's because I entered a turn too hot, and sometimes I picked my line wrong and I'm correcting. Other times I just press the bike that hard for fun. Nope, Never dropped the FJR or the BMW or the Seca. Only damn bike I ever dropped was my DRZ on sand. I wasn't anywhere near scraping pegs then!!!
