[QUOTE="kebo123, post: 1442527, member: 21310"] Your pre-selection is very good and I fully agree with [USER=68615]@infrared[/USER] recommendations before you will decide. Have both bikes in my garage - FJR is mine (third FJR in row), RS is my wife‘s machine. RS is lighter, super easy to handle (Silvia weight is 51 kg - that‘s an evidence), a lot of fun from very well performed engine, looks good and have more features than FJR. Weather protection is almost the same on both bikes. Service intervals are similar and there were 0 issue with both bikes. Maintenance cost of BMW is higher, but not too much. If you ride alone most of the time, you will love both. If you will ride two, than FJR is more comfortable way to go. I personally like FJR design more. I am considering new ST bike as well (as I do not like adv bikes), shaft drive is a must and I want more S than T. FJR is not available here in Europe any more, I am still dreaming that Yamaha will reincarnate it again but I am afraid no… As there is not too much alternatives (which fulfill my requirements) on the market, it is possible that there will be two RS in my garage soon. Good luck with your choice, but with those bikes you can’t go wrong. [/QUOTE]
