[QUOTE="extrememarine, post: 1000787, member: 3568"] yes, potentially expensive... I can tell you that upgrading the suspension has been the single best investment I've made on the bike. The FJR in stock trim is extremely good over such a wide range of use - solo to loaded 2up. It does very well considering. Upgrade the suspension, and it is unbelievable how well the bike can be oven fully loaded 2-up. My set up is tuned for that end of the spectrum - I needed improvement when the bike was at the upper end of the load limit. Now, it actually is more comfortable when it's loaded. Solo loaded is great as well, but it can be a little still (which is due to the spring I'm running). Truely worth every penny. Keep in mind, you need to balance the bike. If you throw high end bling at the rear, you'll need to balance the front as well. [/QUOTE]
