    Cincinnati / Tri State area

    I was riding my just purchased 07 home from Port Washington Wisconsin on Saturday. I'll keep an eye out for future rides. Does anyone in the area have a corbin seat on a gen II.? I'd like to sit out it to see how it feels.

    '07 purchase

    After a lot of help from the board on my concern of the FJR being a little tall for me and how I could make it work. I pulled the trigger. I had a neighbor drop me off for my trip to Milwaukee early Saturday morning. I took this picture while waiting for my flight. Landed in Milwaukee safe...

    GARMIN 60csx Mount

    So from that.. it sounds like the RAM-B-231 bar mount will work. I need to know because I'm flying out to pick up a FJR and plan to use my GPS to get home. I need to order the mount and I'll add it when I pick it up. Thanks

    GARMIN 60csx Mount

    Will this mount work on the left handle bar? https://products.ram-mount.com/rammount/pro...umber=RAM-B-231 Or is the clutch mount better? https://products.ram-mount.com/rammount/pro...mber=RAM-B-346U

    Bummed! first test sit!

    I'm continuing my search for an FJR. I'll most likely look for a used '06 to even a used '08. I'll try test riding a used fully loaded (oil,gas,.....fluids) and see what that does to the balance.

    Bummed! first test sit!

    I agree with what you're saying to an extent. You don't need to put your foot down when riding. But you do at stop signs, stop lights, emergency stops, general parking and backing up. I agree you only need a toe to balance. However I do alot of two up riding and using one toe to balance, and...

    Bummed! first test sit!

    Well from all this great info. looks like I don't have to give up my quest to own a FJR just yet. I'm going to try to find another dealer to sit on a few others and possibly sit on a few used. I'll look into an after market seat and the seat pan mod and see if those options will give me a fit...

    How much do lower links run to install. What does it do to ridability, cornering clearance....?

    Bummed! first test sit!

    My inseam is about 30" so I didn't expect to flat foot it. But did think I'd be able to sit comfortably on with the balls of my feet. I'm sure I'll test sit another one just to be sure. Are there any after market seats that lower you a little bit?

    Bummed! first test sit!

    I've been wanting to add something else to the stable for a while now. I currently have a Honda VTX 1300R. I've been wanting to add some type of sport tourer and the FJR was on my short list. I went to a local dealer and sat on a 2008 for the first time yesterday. Unfortunately, it looks like...

    First ride on my VTX 1800 Since I got my FJR

    Another VTX rider (1300R) considering adding an FJR to the stable. I need to sit on and test ride one here sometime shortly but the FJR is definately on my short list.
