    Why Buy an FJR?

    Couple of years ago I had looked at the Kawa ZZR1200... At this time it was hard to find a Feej.... I didn't buy the bike, waited a few years, bought the Feej, and do love it... My back could use a little more comfort, especially after a 500 mile/day ride; or perhaps I need to pick up a pack of...

    Thinking of AE?

    Test ride, test ride, test ride... If you can.. You get over to Bham, Al., I'll let you ride mine. I like it. We rode this weekend and shifting, especially coming into and leaving corners, is great in my opinion. Slow maneuvering is different, just something you'll have to feel. If Yama offers...
