Is The FJR1300 Dead? No 2025 Model?

Last paragraph of the linked article is certainly disappointing to read. Here's hoping 2026 brings a new big bore adventure / sport touring machine!

My all-knowing and powerful crystal ball says the FJR just as it is will be back for 2026.........

My guess is (like the R6 and R1) the FJR and SuperTenere may be caught between emissions regulations, small niche markets and the cost to bring them into compliance. AND, if they do that, will also mean they roll out an anemic disappointment and the loss of the saddlebags since they will need the space to put the 2 Honda Civic mufflers and cats back there. Enjoy the FJRs you've got boys and girl. At least the resale may go up when it's time to move on.

"Additionally, Yamaha is announcing that the FJR1300ES Sport Touring model and the Super Ténéré ES Adventure Touring model will no longer be offered in the U.S. market for 2025."
