JustinNck1 Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Well I have been wanting a new bike for sometime now, so I can go on some more long distance trips, and I finally got a new bike. 2014 Yamaha FJR1300A. I test rode this bike in July and fell in love. This thing has plenty of power and amazing comfort. I had to trade off my old BMW, but I'm happy now. Onto the pics...(That's my buddy's 2011 R6 in the background. The thing is mint.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tpoppa Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Everyone with a FJR seems to be happy with them. It was on my list, but before I could ride one a VFR1200 followed me home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkow97 Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 What does it look like with the wind screen all the way down? Is it manually adjustable, or do you have to control it manually? My favorite FJR memory is a guy and his girlfriend having one at Mid-Ohio and camping right behind us. His girlfriend was a total butterface, but she had an awesome rack, and no awareness whatsoever of the fact that the screen door of their tent was quite transparent.

The first photo was about half-way up. Once you're on the windshield mode, you simply push a button up or down to adjust the windshield.

drc32-0 Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 A new FJR...the journey begins. You will find that your rides will just keep getting longer.You'll start around 100-150 miles maybe,then 250,then 500 and before you know it you'll be looking for twisties several states away. Check out the FJR Forum,if you haven't already.They can tell you anything you'd ever want to know about the FJR. Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
