I just bought a 2014 FJR with 16K miles. Picked it up in Colorado Springs and rode it home to LA. I am coming off a long history of riding big Harley touring bike. Still love Harleys, but wanted something different. In 2016, my wife said she wouldn't ride with me any more unless I bought a...

Feejerbkb, Frankly, the choice came down to which was the best buy.  I did not want to have to ship the bike as I'd rather pay a little extra to get it local.  The FJR was a good  deal although I was about to pull the trigger on a C-14.  I had the chance to sit on new versions of both bikes in...

Thanks for the advice. I rented a KZ900 over the weekend. That sucker was fast. I think it redlined at 11K and I never got over 7500 because I would be going too fast in second gear. Not to bad at 100 mph either. I expect the FJR to be much more comfortable than the KZ900. Harleys are a lot...

I'm going to be picking up a new (to me) 2014 FJR in a week.  I am coming from big Harley's.  What do I need to know about operating it?  My Harley redlines at about 5500 rpm but the FJR's is something like 9500. Do you run it up to redline (not every shift of course, but sometimes for fun)? ...

I thought for sure I was going to end up with the Concours.  I sat on both and the FJR did feel better but they are harder to find and the C-14's are often cheaper. But at the last minute, I found a 2014 with 16K miles at a good price and I put a deposit on it.  Pick it up in a week!  

I came up with the sales comparison by my subjective analysis of the number of C-14's for sale vs. FJR's.  There are more Concours for sale on CycleTrader than FJR's.  Either no one sells their FJR's or there are more C-14's out there.  

I know this has been debated and I did search the archives.  I am looking at 2013-2015 Concours or FJR's.  I am sure you made that comparison when you bought your FJR's.  Why did you choose the FJR over the Concours?  From what I can tell, the Concours outsold the FJR's about 4-1, which is...
