I am sure there is info on this subject posted already, but I am having trouble finding it! I am new and it will take awhile for me to be able to work the search feature right.
I will probably make a desicion on an FJR this weekend. I am considering a new 06, a used 06, or a used 05 with ABS.
Prices will be somewhat of a factor, but not exclusively. What I am more concerned about are whether the upgades for 06 are a significant improvement over the 05. I have read some "fixes" or at least mods for the "excessive" heat issue on 03-05's. At least from what I read it is excessive, haven't verified it for myself yet. I live in a hot, humid, sunny climate, so heat will be a factor.
I don't mind modifing a bike if it helps, but wondering if the factory has made a real improvement in this and other areas.
Any help you can give me would be appreciated!
