I've been riding a small v-twin for several years, mostly summer time riding to and from work on a daily basis with a few longer trips thrown in for good measure. It's time to upgrade, my natural tendency is to head for a larger and newer cruiser. Then, a buddy of mine pointed me to the sport touring bikes, and I've been intruiged and interested at the thought.
My first question - how can I test ride the offerings when the dealers have no stock? I'm interested in the Yamaha FJR and the Honda ST - and I know one will fit my taste and personality and physique better than the other, but the local dealers have none in stock.
Next question - are there any known defects / issues with any of the older models - I'm not committed to buying brand new, willing to shop and find a good deal. Plus, I'm in no hurry - I need to sell my Virago and I'm waiting on cash to show up...
I've browsed the forum for a couple weeks, lots of good info and good folks posting / sharing...
