Moving Farkles from Gen 06 Gen II to 14 or 15 Gen III

[cyclemed]

Hi All:

Considering making a change from my 06 Gen 2 and have it narrowed down to three bikes, I think. 2014 / 2015 Gen 3 FJR, 2014 / 2015 Concurs 14 or 2015 BMW R1200RT.

While I like the Bimmer, I am not sure it is worth about $10,000 more than I can by the FJR or C14 for.

I do really like the C14, but the lack of cruise is an issue for me. I don't feel like dealing with the AudioVox Cruise as I have on my 06 FJR now. But, a little birdie tells me that Kawasaki may address than in the 2016 model year.

Lastly, the 2014 / 2015 FJR is a known entity with nice upgrades from my 2006. Virtually the same price as the C14 too. Another consideration is the expense of re-farkling, which as you know, can add up. So...would the following stuff from my 06 bolt right onto a 14 or 15 FJR?

Yamaha Tall Windshield

GIVI Mount for mono-key boxes

Frame sliders

GenMar bar risers

V Strom Hand Guards

Gerauld Light Mounts at mirror

J&M radio mount

I also have some Powerlet mounts that were custom made and I think they will work.

By the way, I have a bout $35,000 miles (wink wink)

Thanks for your opinions, and by the way, if you have a made a similar change I also welcome your thoughts on that.

The windshield and frame sliders won't work...not sure about the rest of the stuff.
