Considering a 2005

[Bulldog9]

This is a NON ABS bike, which is my preference. I just think long term that a NON abs bike will be better for me, and after 25+ years of riding non ABS, I like it like that The bike also has a Rifle Giant windshield, plus he has all the original seats & Cans & windscreen, so the bike is everything I wanted. What would make it PERFECT was if it was silver, but I like the Galaxy blue too. Pulled the trigger $8300, but the way I figure it, I would upgrade the seat and cans, and want a winter windscreen, those additions alone plus the throttle meister, bar end weights, heli-bar extenders and a bunch of other goodies make it worth my while, and saves me $$ from having to add things.
Anyone have a two brothers on their FJR? what is the sound, etc?

congrats on your purchase..you wont be disapointed. isn't it great getting what you want!!!

bulldog, where is home, in the states? let us know when you get to ride the bike.

Price is maybe a little high for this time of year.

I got an '05 two years ago and like it a lot. it does throw too much heat if you're stuck in traffic but is great for cold morning commutes to work.

most of those farkles are the same as what I put on my bike, IMHO they definitely make it a better bike.
