damn. that's a really pretty ride... i'll look for ya, out on the mean steets of ABQ.Thanks for all the well wishes, warnings and comments. I went in to this with eyes open and fingers crossed. If in the end I find it's not for me, I'll trade it. For now, I'm just enjoying the "honeymoon" stage and am looking forward to taking it out on some adventures. I still bleed Yamaha blue, but wanted to try this out before I'm too old and am forced into riding a Burgman!
My 2009 had only 13500 mi. on it. Can't fault the FJR in any way. The RT has some creature comforts that my FJR did not. Like I mentioned earlier, after 10 years and 3 FJR's, it was time for a change. That relationship lasted about 5 times longer than any other I've had! Thanks for the well wishes.
I got $20 Dean has it. It was purty too. I woulda traded him his '09 for my '07, and then just given him the difference in trade-in. Oh well...
Sandia BMW. Don't take HRZ's bet!. I took advantage of so many of Dean's BBQ's and assorted events over the past few years that I felt like I owed it (yea right) to him to finally take the plunge. I just needed to scratch that "beemer" itch like so many on this forum have done. I'm sure you know the feeling. Thought it would be fun to replace the roundel emblems with the tuning fork version. That would mess up some minds!
