[QUOTE="MiSTer TwiSTer, post: 1470184, member: 100500"] Hello, I bought a used 2014 Fjr from a guy near St Louis Mo. when I bought it it was filthy, but the story was he’d bought it from a friend, who was trading in for the trade price. Then he found out he has Cancer and was selling the FJr and his R1.because he might not be riding anymore. I stupidly bought the story and figured he didn’t have the oomph to clean it up. When I got it home to clean off the layers of bugs and grime I found that it was terribly rock chipped. It looks like it was on a gravel road behind a bunch of dirt bikes throwing rooster tails. (Yes, I’ve learned don’t buy a dirty bike.) I it had just under 21000 miles and the bike is pretty well equipped. Rear case, Lamm seats, nitro shock on rear and supposedly upgraded front forks with Pirelli Angel Gt tires. The thing is I think he was just flipping the bike. Of course he knows nothing about its history and after my nasty emails we aren’t talking. I’m just hoping someone might know the bike and its history. (I’m thinking AlCan highway?) Not for complaints but for info on maintenance and how it was set up and any history. Sound familiar to anyone? Thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
