I picked up my new '14 FJR on Friday! Motoman Break In is complete and it's now time to move through the first 600 miles to get the gearbox nice and smooth. It truly felt like being home again!

 
Congrats, Mike. Now you have no reason to be so Grumpy. Maybe one of the admins can change your name to "Happy Mike"?

PS - My gearbox was smooth as buttah from day 1. It doesn't even kerchunk into 1st gear from neutral when cold like so many Feejers do. (my old '05 has always done it)

I religiously adhered to the break-in requirements, and still found the bike could go 70-75 mph.
