    Need Half an FJR

    Another vote for the Suzuki GSX 650F Suzuki GSX 650F, baby Bandit, pretty bulletproof, not hard to oil the chain... fairing, bags, etc available, It's not that heavy, but heavy enough not to get blown around as much as a lightweight bike. Easy to add lowering links, shorter front forks and...

    135 lb. female on an FJR?

It was the little things like having to watch where to park, backing up and doing stupid stuff like stopping in the gravel driveway halfway up...
