[QUOTE="Salish1300, post: 1271984, member: 87827"] Has everyone seen and read the latest MCN review of sport touring bikes? This time they look at the FJR, the BMW 1200 and an Aprilia. Long and short, the Yamaha wins overall and for long distance, the Aprilia for a few things, and the BMW for nothing! They rave about the smooth motor and overall power of our beloved FJR. All stuff we know. Surprising they dislike the BMW so much, but they do. They don't even touch on the vastly better reliability and serviceability of the FJR compared to the Beemer and the Aprilia. For all of us DIY folks, that is a key factor. To top if off, Dave Searle writes the most beautiful editor letter about the power of the stories we tell ourselves. And no, I do not work for the magazine! I respect the wisdom he shows in writing it, and the courage to publish a letter that challenges all of us to question our perspectives. [/QUOTE]
