I found #006, #012, & #014

[fljab]

#014 is static display:

#006 & #012 are demo bikes:

They must have pulled 012 & 014 from the line in LA when they got off the boat, and sent 013 up to Washington State. We had 004 here @ Spaceport cycles in Titusville, FL (I don't know who bought it, but it's gone now), and 006 also went to the Demo fleet.

Just thought someone might want to know/find it interesting!

Did you ride either of them? 12 is the one I rode back in January and handled like crap. I detailed that in my '13 FJR ride impressions report.

 

[Fairlaner]

another 14????

[fljab]

No, I didn't ride either one. If I ride one, I'll want! My '09 has plenty of life left and is paid for! Besides, you got to get there early to get signed up for the day.

Another 14 - ?? I guess I haven't been keeping up..............

Number 10 is the Motorcyclist testbike.

Is anyone keeping track of the VINs?

Be interesting to ride the one SkooterG checked out to see if anyone's listening...

Hmmmm.... Or should I say Brrrrr?

I'll be up there in the frozen tundra of north Florida tomorrow.

Might not make Daytona till Saturday though.

See you in Jax Jim !

I found lucky number 13! It's in my garage.

 

[Bugnatr]

I thought Warchild had #13 ??

Bugnatr is in Canada, so presumably they run a different number sequence from the USA ones.

 

[Caladin]

hmm, interesting. I would have guessed that vin numbers were the sharred in Canada and the US.

 

[mcatrophy]

Bikes are different, e.g. miles v. kilometres. With a Gen II you can't change between them, I suspect the same is true of the Gen III.

There may well be differing legal requirements in terms of lights etc, there certainly are between Europen and American.

 

[Bugnatr]

As long as you don't end up with one of those French FJR's your doing ok.

As long as you don't end up with one of those French FJR's you're doing ok.

Luckily for me there are differences between the French and the UK FJRs. Vive la difference!

I just took delivery of #016 on the 14th of March in Rapid City, SD. It's been snowing ever since, so only about 150 miles logged so far. I also have a 12 connie so it'll be fun to do my own comparison this summer.

I'm picking up #73 in Canada on Friday, March 22 - 2013.

It would be interesting to find out where the rest are.

I'll be looking forward to that comparison.

Here is a review of the 2013 FJR, 2012 Concours and 2012 ST1300. My apologies if this has been posted already. I look forward to your comparison as well Rugeroid.

Was established long ago that there are two- the CA model which is on the show circuit, and the 49 state model, which is about 30 feet from me.

I don't know of any other duplicates, INSIDE the USA. It'd be interesting to know the VIN prefix for the Canadian #13.
