[QUOTE="hppants, post: 1396407, member: 27852"] What are your thoughts regarding addressing the "loose" handling in the corners? Big difference from the ZRX, no? It's a big heavy bike, but she looses about 100 pounds after 20 mph. Wind protection is deceptive. You are going MUCH faster than you realize. Please keep that in mind. I've ridden hill country many times. There aren't many "gotcha" decreasing radii curves over there, but to be clear, when countersteer comes to shove, the FJR is heavy and requires commitment. 3 weeks after I bought my first FJR, I crashed it because I was OVERLY confident. I don't want that to happen to you. [/QUOTE]
