[QUOTE="DavidEBSmith, post: 1451281, member: 94455"] Funny, I have no Yamaha dealer within 25 miles and none of them are easy accessible for me. The local BMW dealer, I can drop off the bike, and there's a train 1/2 block away to take me to work or home. If I go to the other local dealer, there's a train that stops 1 block from them. So for me, it's really inconvenient to get the FJR into the shop, and it's really easy to get the BMW into the shop. On the other hand, the BMW was in the shop for all of last year after it died on the road and it cost $XXXX to fix. When I told the mechanic at the BMW shop I had picked up an FJR, he said, oh yah Yamahas, all you have to do is change the oil and tires and they go forever. :unsure: [/QUOTE]
