    Yamaha's Biggest Sale/Rebates?

    I'm kinda wondering that myself. Given the late start in the year for production, I'm betting that they won't have a lot of inventory to move between now and Christmas. I submitted a request through Costco's motorcycle purchase program and the only response I got was from Thousand Oaks. I...

    Yamaha's Biggest Sale/Rebates?

    So I seen that Yamaha is offering $500 cash on the 2016 FJR1300A......so I called my local dealer to see what his pricing OTD would be. He came back with $16,800.00 including all setup, delivery, sales tax, and CA licensing. Still higher than I want to pay. So.....I filled out the form on...

    2016 FJR1300 Best Choice?

    Excellent feedback from one and all.....it is greatly appreciated! You are correct PhilJet09, I am trying to compare bikes that represent the limits of the "Sport Touring" continuum......I've even contemplated buying a new R1S and adding a riser/handlebar kit, larger touring windscreen, and...

    2016 FJR1300 Best Choice?

    Several questions for the community.... 1. Has anyone seen horsepower numbers from a dyno for the new 2016 FJRs? If not, estimates as delivered from the factory? 2. Secondly, are parts available for full exhaust, ecu flash, and high flow air cleaner? 3. Lastly, I'm curious which model has...
