    Sat on a 2014 FJRA

    Guess since you ordered one I'd better order one too--I'm about 75% decided thanks to my stationary ride (LoL). We're only about an hour away from each other so we could hook up and ride.

    You own a '14 ES don't you?

    Sat on a 2014 FJRA

    Well, I did sit on it for 30 minutes and had to clean the windshield because I spit all over it making engine noises like I was riding.

    Sat on a 2014 FJRA

    OMG! I finally got to sit on a '14 FJR. (It was buried in the back garage of the dealership since it just came in--but being the loyal customer that I am I was allowed to see it.) The red paint was REALLY eye catching and I loved the new dash lay-out. My plans are to pull the trigger on an...

    Pretty decent review of the 2014 FJR. Including some nice things about the electronic suspension.

    Goodbye Trusty FJR, hello Super Tenere

    I've also been going back and forth between the FJR and Tenere but with wife wanting a Can Am I may have to wait a few more years. Could not agree more with the OP after riding both bikes a few weeks ago. Moving to Colo before long which may mean the Tenere.

    Can Am RT

    Dealer her in VA is offering $3K off '13s, and wifey almost jumped on one. But after doing the research on the '14 RTs we decided to wait. Worth the extra $ for the 3 cylinder, 6 speed, etc... But again, I need a good grade in that Creative Financing class. BTW, I believe there are some...

    Can Am RT

    Check out the color options and read about the 14's. Burgundy seats on silver machine are down right cool! https://can-am.brp.com/spyder/ Never ever seen my wife this excited (except when she met me). But heck, she’ll get good on it and we’ll have a blast…riding together with me eating the...

    Can Am RT

    Wife and I test rode a used Can Am yesterday. No counter-steering or leaning, just turn the bars. It's absolutely the "motorcycle" she wants as she's always been petrified about making turns and leaning. She was cruising down the road screaming with joy in a matter of minutes. Absolutely amazing...

    Cycle World July 2013

    SPOT ON: "They compared a $15K bike with a $20k bike and a $26k bike." But at least they mentioned that the K's engine is 20% bigger. Don't forget the thousands of loyal Harley riders who drop $24 for an Electra Glide Ultra Classic complete with two cylinders and that famous exhaust sound...

    Cycle World July 2013

    Finally read the article comparing the FJR to Triumph Trophy SE and BMW 1600GT. Interesting choice of words for the FJR. It's a "very good motorcycle that was the top sport-tourer on the maret a decade ago." But "time has marched on, and despite incremental improvements over the years, the...
