[QUOTE="kingston, post: 1442797, member: 97760"] Thanks, [USER=27852]@hppants[/USER]. Super helpful insights, and get well soon! The Gen 3 sounds like a good way to go if I can find one in the $6-7k price rage. The ones I have seen near me recently are more like $10-11k, which seems like a pretty big step up from the Gen 1-2's I see all the time at $4-5. I don't mind a little suffering, so I'm not sure how important the creature comforts will be for me. Do people change their own tires on the FJR or is that something I should expect to take to the shop? Dirt bike tires don't last long either, and I've gotten pretty good at changing those myself, but they're tubed so the beads are easy to break and I don't have to worry about balancing. [/QUOTE]
