Since you did not include a smiley and I know you have friends in the know... You better be joking. No smiley.
Any rumor on the 2016...?

You...and everyone who "liked" your post can kiss my 60,000 mile tire's a$$.The only change I really would like to see, is modify the swingarm or rear rim so people would quit putting car tires on it.That just really pisses me off....

Well, your tire is so ugly, it looks like ass. So I'll give you that part of your statement.You...and everyone who "liked" your post can kiss my 60,000 mile tire's a$$.The only change I really would like to see, is modify the swingarm or rear rim so people would quit putting car tires on it.That just really pisses me off....
What? A Suzook RE5?

Actually,e's a 2 minute paint job (another words a quick stab at it). Variations would be forthcoming if you were serious about really painting your bike.
Actually, if you black out some of the silver on this rendering, you may have something.

You were reading my mind on the burnt orange....... for a while now I've been seriously considering finding a nice '13 and doing it. Depends what comes along.

Wasn't there a 70s BMW R90S with a nice burnt orange look?

Buy a '13 and strip it down to the frame and bring the color palate up to modern standards.

To my eye, black looks great with burnt orange, but silver doesn't cut it.

Went to the Los Angeles Motorcycle Show in Long Beach this morning and they had a '15 people could pet.
I asked:
"So where is the 2016 FJR?"
And got answered with a smile:
"EVERYONE has been asking us that question, and we don't know anything."
There's some fodder for the "enough demand" argument.

The Kawasaki Versys also came out in a "Burnt Orange" that was really sharp!

Hey you forgot about self-cancelling turn signals!So, does that mean I have 3 years until I become a quivering NEPRT reposter? Shudder.
....Hey, does anybody know what the 2016 color is, have the finally fixed the dreaded valve tick, lowered the pegs, put in a 6th gear, moved the battery, and fixed the top heaviness that's going to kill somebody some day?

If I do nothing else in this life, I can at least point to this (so far) 21-page thread and say, I did that. My wife and kids don't realize the celebrity they have in their midst.

The thread is still young; who knows how large the greatness I have birthed will grow. Maybe Yamaha will delay the announcement further. Then folks will need to comment on the color when it is announced, whenever that may be. Oh yes, we're just getting started...Not even close to the record rookie!
By the time this thread is exhausted, I will have a new sideline of selling autographed photos for which FJR enthusiasts will pay handsome sums.

I have heard a rumor about if when the '16 FJR will be released to dealers. I hope Yamaha announces the '16 well in advance of the actual release date so people can plan ahead for want factor & $$$. Since this release will probably be more than just a new paint job any information would be helpful in deciding if I'm looking for leftover dealer stock or waiting to find out which dealers will be getting the '16 on their floor.
Edit to ponder, what happned to the speel chaker? Is it my computer or has the Fourem function taken a vacation?
