Well dang!!! 26-55 is quite the bubble for an age range!!!

You mean to say that I'm clicking the same age group as some of those..... umm.... older people!?!?

I'm way out of the "typical" for this bike. Lol

27 year old female. Been riding the FJR for just over 3 years now. I've put 65k miles on it in that time.

Remember this is only part one, just basic info, we will go into little more subtle details soon. Winter is long and boring. Who knows one day mothership Yamaha might like the data we have here and listen to changes we really want hehehe like may he give us fully adjustable ohlins for less than the price of ES.

Looks like for occupation part in future polls the choice is simple a **** star b wants to be **** star c rejected as **** star lol

Age bracket and other option I had to put it wide and inclusive to minimize choices, kinda only thing very evident was less than 2% of fjr owners will be below 25, didn't expect it to be none so far

An average FJR guy can be just like a woman. Imagine that!

Was just wondering what an average FJr guy be like.

I'd be curious to see 30 years, 45 years data for " how long you been ridin'?"

And 60, 70, 80 for ages.

Obviously, based on my history, my love affair with the FJR has been with the US AE model. Those are gone.

I wish they'd bring them back, but it ain't goin' to happen.

The non AE model is great, and probably the best direct BMW competitor out there. If I wanted another ST type bike, the FJR would beat out the BMW on price AND fun. The FJR would beat out the Connie based on Cruise Control.

Right now I'm still seriously thinking that the ZX14R is good for longish days. It is really comfortable... surprisingly so.

I may put some bags on it, but they'd probably suck all the fun out.

I used to think I was a bit different, but looking at the votes so far, I am merely average :blinksmiley: .
