07 FJR 8k Miles with Traction dynamic/penske Shock

motoquest · Jul 29, 2012

07 FJR 8k miles, garaged kept, has traction dynamics front shock and penske rear shock. Handle bar riser and foot pegs have been lowered for better seating position. It has a Vstream windshield. The bike handles GREAT with the traction dynamic/penske shocks. Road Pilot II tires with less than 1k miles. The bike springs are setup for a heavy rider or two up. The bike is in great shape. The reason for selling is the bike has sat for the last year and half with little riding. $8500 and I live in Charlotte NC

The one minor defect is rear mufflers are a little discolored because the dealer I bought it from removed a power commander and didn’t reconnect the O2 senor.

Some pictures might help prospective buyers gain a little more interest.

I have finally got back from business travel and was able to take a few pictures. I forgot to mention it comes with Shad46 hard luggage mounted on rear.

Nice!

If I had to buy a 2nd gen I'd go with a black cherry. They look sweet.

Thanks Fred. I really thought this would be the long term bike for me which is why I had all the suspension work done. Unfortunately I have been pulled in other directions and hate to just see it sitting in the garage.

Hey, the color of the pipes now match the bike!

LOL, true. I don't really mind the color of the pipes but everyone's taste may be different.

I may be interested in your '07 FJR1300. I just sold my '05 FJR and want to upgrade to a Gen 2 version.. The '07 fits that need.... I do live in Seattle, so I'd probably fly out, we make the deal to your satisfaction and I'd have a great ride back. Anyway, my Name is Rick Bradbury, on the forum I'm "FJR_LiveToRide" and my number is 206-255-2977 if you want to contact me that's great. Too bad someone took off the powercommander. I had one on my '05 and it made a ton of difference.

Later,

Rick

Ok, I have come to terms with the fact it is late in the riding season. Lowering the price to $7200. If I can't sell it for this price I will probably just keep it.

BTW does anyone know how to change the original post or title?

Man, what a good price, I really wish I had the $$$.

I don't think you have enough posts to be allowed the privilege of editing the post title. Try asking an admin nicely if they would do the job for you.

motoquest · Aug 26, 2012

Thanks Ion. Are there specific admin's for different part of the forum. If so, does anyone know the admin for this section?

ionbeam · Aug 26, 2012

There are no 'specialist' admins. Try Bounce, SkooterG or Ignacio. These guys all ride a lot, unless you happen to catch someone having a down day it could be a while before they can respond.

Is this motor still available?

motoquest · Sep 13, 2012

Yes, the motorcycle is still available.

RidingGuy · Sep 14, 2012

Just bought a replacement or I'd be all over this.

Question - still have the OEM shock?

PM me if so.

I'm guessing that after you found out about the O2 sensor it was reconnected . . . correct? Any idea why the dealer removed the Power Commander? I would think it would have been a feature that would have made the motor easier to sell.

I'm guessing the lowered foot pegs meant a sacrifice in ground clearance. What would be involved in returning the seating position to stock?

I do still have the OEM shock but I'm not looking to sell it. If the bike doesn't sell as is I will wait till spring and put back the stock suspension and see the AK and penske seperately.
