    Am I Spoiled by the FJR?

    Good morning everyone., To begin with, I'm an old fart. I've had 27 motorcycles in my riding history. In '06 I bought a used '05 FJR. I loved it, found only one thing about it I didn't like, Heat on the feet. Unfortunately I had/have tendon issues in my left elbow and all the clutching was...
