Family comes first, at least for now... selling my bike, but the wife said when the kids are older I can buy a brand new Feejer! (I know, I need to get it in writing...)

Just wanted to thank the awesome FJR Forum for a great ride!

Life's circumstances have forced me to list my 2008 Yamaha FJR1300 for sale. One owner bike.

The Pros:
Only 18K miles
Fork seals replaced Nov '13
New Bridgestone Battlax BT-023GTs installed Nov '13
New battery Jan '14
Oil/filter changed Mar '14

Heavily modified:
HID headlights with 2 spare bulbs
Custom amber LED running lights that are wired to flash with turn signals (inside headlight assembly, see pictures)
Fork mounted LED driving lights
Cee-Bailey clear headlight protectors (new, never installed)
Bi-tone car horns
Wire mesh radiator guard
Fuse block
Suzuki V-Strom handguards
Oxford heated grips
Throttle lock
Datel voltmeter custom installed in fairing
Cortech Dryver tank bag (attaches to mount around fuel cap, nothing to rub against tank i.e. straps or magnets) (Tank bag is brand new, never used)
Motovation frame sliders (included, but not installed)
905 Racing "crash bars" front and rear, (bought used, functional and not obviously aftermarket when on bike, see pictures), mounts for highway pegs installed on bars
Pins installed to ensure saddle bags do not detach from motorcycle when riding
Yamaha removable saddle bag liners
75% of a gravity-fed auxiliary fuel cell system; brand new 4.5 gal fuel cell (never has had fuel in it), custom steel fuel cell mount doubles as very functional luggage rack (bolts onto stock mounts) and fuel line, connection to tank provided, however, in order to use system, hole would need to be drilled in bottom of motorcycle's stock fuel tank
Power leads for switched-power accessory below rear seat
Hyperlite LED brake lights (non-flashing)
Reflective silver rim stripes that match the aluminum wheels
Reflective black stickers on sides of the bike
Red/White reflective safety tape on back of saddle bags (aids in visibility from rear in low-light conditions)
Motorcycle cover

The Cons:
Extremely minor cosmetic scrapes on left side due to thinking the kickstand was down first month of owning (upper left plastic and "Yamaha" crankcase cover, as seen in pictures). Crash bars show wear. Bike has slight scratches in finish from riding (normal wear). One of the LED driving lights have burnt out recently.

Bike runs flawlessly, modifications were all installed in hopes of riding the bike to Alaska (Arctic Circle) and back, but never did. Only selling because family got bigger and need to buy a car.
