Just bought my first 2007 FJR 1300.

[zzzzip]

That can happen when you get too excited. I think it is called "speed shifting". :lol:

Joshua,

Congrats on your new bike.

I just realized that today is the 'birthday' of mine! I picked it up January 27, 2007. And like 'Zilla referred to, I have never owned the same automobile for 5 years!

After you ride it a bit this summer, you'll notice several things that are directly associated with the '07 model. The more you ride it, the better you'll feel. Soon, your intelligence will increase. When that happens, your boss will notice your wisdom and immediately give you a huge raise and double your vacation time. Sadly, your marriage will be in deep jeopardy due to your inability to not fend off all the young hot women that are attracted to the exotic/erotic Black Cherry color. If you want to keep your marriage intact, my best advice is to buy a couple cans of Krylon spray-paint and cover that stunning red with either blue, silver, or black. Recent liberal/socialist funded university studies have shown that women who "bat for the other team" and males who have a more feminine slant prefer blue, black, and silver hues in their motor vehicles. Don't say I didn't warn you, 'cause it's gonna happen.

Congrats on the new bike ! and yes the 07 is the best of them all since it is the only one they did once! all the rest are repeats. :assassin:

I think they brought the Cobalt Blue back in 2012 for a reason. Sexy sells. The Black Cherry is my second favorite FJR color, maybe 2013?

Joshua you will not be disappointed.....your search for the perfect has ended......

 

[allrider]

If you haven't already done so, find the "Bin-o-facts" for the Gen II model and get familiar. Oh, and may the farkling begin. If the bike didn't break your wallet, the accessories will. There's no end to them.

Congrats and good luck with her.

Well done Josh, and congratulations. I've been enjoying my 2007 since last March when I rescued her from a dark garage in Odessa, Texas. I've put 18,000 miles on her since then and enjoyed every minute of it. Sorry to hear that your are grounded for awhile up there. It's going to be 74 here today, so I'll be thinking about you when I sneak in a short ride this afternoon. I plan to take it easy, nothing over 130 mph just to be on the safe side. Good luck with your new ride.
