FJR is a workhorse (Photo's inside)

[lacofdfireman]

For the past few months I have been commuting full time on the FJR. This bike is a workhorse. Not only is it required to carry my big butt around but all my work gear for the Fire Station also. I don't ride the bike to aggressive with all the gear but the bike does just fine with it. You can definately feel the front end being light on corners so I have to take them slow. Here are a few photo's of how my bike looks all packed up to go work an overtime at another Fire Station.

Tank bag is perfect for Ipod, Cell, Ball cap, Camera, Toiletries, etc.

Love my Bill Mayer saddle (BMS) for my short 50 mile commute..

Anyone else have a photo they wanna share of there FJR loaded up going somewhere? Work, Vacation etc? Please share....

This bike truely is a great machine.

Ditto's on that! What a setup you have...makes going to work that much more fun and easier to do wheelies.

This was from my trip to Florida this spring. A stop at Barbers was a must.

Well, since we're sharing....FJR "SuperDuty" version worked very well this past summer - got about 2400 miles pulling the trailer to trackdays (8 total in 5 separate trips). Looking forward to next season!

NOW THAT'S AWESOME!! :clapping: :clapping:

I'm been toying with idea of buying a track bike, which the track I plan to frequent the most is 200 miles away. This setup would save me a ton in gas!!

What kind of MPG did you get? What trailer hitch did you use? Did you have to modify the FJR's suspension? What's it like to pull that much weight on a motorcycle?

Thanks in advance!!

I knew a guy that use to run a MC repair shop down in Oceanside. He did free pickup and delivery using a motorcycle and trailer. Said it worked very well B)

I was pretty impressed with the amount of gear I was hauling on my FJR. After seeing all these others I am a lightweight. There are some great photo's. Keep them coming.

Looks like a case of "mine's bigger than yours"! I'm embarrassed as to my load is a small cortech tail bag mounted on Gary's rack and the mini cortech tank bag. Great pictures though, I'll be competing soon!

I know my load is "small" but I just got my bike about a month ago. I'll check in with a new pic several weeks from now and hopefully it will have increased!

All I ever ask the bike to do is sit overnight, take me to work, on the weekends take a run at 4k rpm for 3.5hrs and for long trips, haul me and my gear..

It's not the size of your load that counts, it's all about the ride
