The next person that orders this plate could do all of us a big favor by taking side profile pics of the rider seated on the bike holding the handlebars before the MV plate is attached and then after it's attached, and thru its adjustment arc. That would help illustrate the change in rider...

See this and weep... 2013 FJR crash... https://www.liveleak.com/view?i=1c7_1354378358 Must be moto journo trying for a glamor pose.... oops, forgot about the saddlebag...

Go for it! Congrats! I realize it's a trade in, but is the dealer charging you full MSRP on the new bike or is there some discount off MSRP?

Are the electronic adjustable shocks controlled thru the Menu system, or are there any additional controls added to the cockpit or switch gear? (Thanks for the pics). And is this available ONLY on the auto-clutch model? I'm just wondering if this model will be brought to the US if it's only...

I thought you had a Russell seat already, as shown in your '13 FJR thread.. Does your Gen II seat not fit Gen III? RDL seats are second to none in day long comfort.

These might work better, they are only attached at the bar end only.. and just float in front of the controls: https://www.twistedthrottle.com/barkbusters-storm-s5-handguards-with-single-sided-bar-end-mounting-kit-for-7-8-or-1-bars

Did you end up trying the Vstrom handguards to see if they fit?

Thanks for your report on the new FJR.. I've been interested in the FJR for several years now...What's really good about the new FJR is that most of the systems on it are well proven and there shouldn't be much in the way of teething pains. I own a Yamaha SuperTenere. The bike has been solid...

The UK Yamaha website shows both models. The AE model (they call it AS) has upside down forks and electronic suspension. Since the AE model isn't coming here, will they offer the electronic suspension model here? I really like the upside down forks on my SuperTenere.

There was a link to Ash's site, no discussions about the negatives of the bike.. by merging it, it's swept away and no one else chimes in with their opinions of that Ash said. I was just very surprised that he said the bike has poor low end thrust and it did not hold its line in the curves, so I...

I was not referring to the entire article, as per your link. I was referring to specific alleged concerns regarding the performance of the reviewer. So it's been swept under the rug... oh well.. I did a google search of this site and did not find any discussion about it.. Going thru 46 pages...

I haven't ridden one and won't be able to, unless I buy one. I bought a Yamaha XT1200Z (SuperTenere) without test riding it because I waited 2 years to get a test ride but none were available... anyway, took a leap of faith and I'm delighted with the bike.. The bike press gave it a mediocre...

I forgot to post a link to the full review... https://www.ashonbikes.com/content/yamaha-fjr1300-2013-review What about the low end torque?

Debbie Downer (aka AshOnBikes.com) has a few things that are of concern to me, but I never fully believe moto journos, they don't spend enough time on a bike to get to know it fully. Keep in mind, he's British and seems to give Triumph rave reviews on their recent models. I'd like to hear 2013...

I had a K1600, lovely bike, but too many glitches, problems and defects.. so I got rid of it.. the bike was just unreliable and the dealer was unable to sort the issues. So.. here I am considering old faithful... don't need whiz bang electronics, finicky fuel injectors, etc... At this point, I...

Gen II Canadian FJR's have the immobilizer found on Euro spec'd bikes.. I suspect Gen III Canadian FJR's will also have an immobilizer. The Canadian SuperTenere has it, whereas the US version does not.

Richard, Congrats on your new baby! I was wondering if you can help me out by finding out if you can switch your speedo / odo from mph to km/h? And will the LCD display on the right also switch, i.e. will the mpg and ambient temp also switch? On my SuperTenere, the speedo and mpg switch from...

found one.

Gorgeous!!! Thanks for sharing the pics... what does it cost to get it painted?

I'm looking for a low miles Gen II FJR in the Denver area in well maintained condition. Email me info / pics to advhotel at gmail.com thank you.
