[QUOTE="montanaman, post: 1267732, member: 87618"] I've had my 2013 for 18000 great miles. I got a good price on it used a year ago. Love the bike. I might be able to lay my hands on a 2015 ES for about 2500 buck more after I sell my '13. Other than the cruise control being deeper and the obvious benefit of an almost new bike ( 8k miles) is the ES suspension that much better? Anyone own both to really compare? I am not a heavy rider and rarely ride two up. I do ride the twisty's aggressively when I get to them. I had a Mutistrada with the adjustable suspension and I did use it all the time switching on the fly when the road conditions changed. I know you can only adjust the front end on the fly and others complain that there is no compression damping adjustment on the ES and there actually is ( manual of course) on the 2013. The last question is has there been any reported issues with the additional electronics. The reason I got an FJR is the relative simplicity and low service needs. Thanks for any opinions and info [/QUOTE]
