Sadly, yes I am selling the FJR. The Super Tenere is taking it's place. Different, but fun and has about 153k less miles on it.

Eric, I'll take the Heli Risers.

I'll PM you.

Thanks.

Will the heavyweight bar ends fit an '05?

Will the heavyweight bar ends fit an '05?

Yes. The '03-05 bikes are all Gen I, so exactly the same in this regard.

It's different. I've been on the Feej a long time and seen a lot of places. I'll miss the old girl, that's for sure. The new owner is having an absolute blast with her though.

I didn't really plan on rallying the S10 when I bought it. I was thinking about plans to Alaska next year and some adventure touring, starting to transition to more touring and less rallying. But I was also considering how I've ridden the FJR and that I was taking it places it really shouldn't go, and had been for years. It wasn't uncommon for me to take the FJR up a dual track or even single track and on very bad gravel/rock/dirt roads to grab a bonus. That sort of struck home a few times this year when I would come back to the pavement from snagging a bonus and there would be one or two GS riders, parked at the pavement, looking at me coming out of a road they didn't want to ride their big GS up... totally aghast that I took the Feej up there.

That said, The next couple of years will see some pretty good rally use on the S10. I got drawn for the IBR and will be riding the S10 in it for '13, unless something dramatically changes. In a lot of ways, the FJR is a much better LD mount, IMHO. But like most, you ride what you have. I'm not able to just buy another FJR and re-farkle it, just for the IBR or rallying.

I have most of the necessities already, but am still working on crash bars/skid plate and just sent the seat out for custom work. A friend is helping with a fuel cell as well.
