[QUOTE="TooManyBikes, post: 1467305, member: 91287"] Yes! Gen 1 was a pioneering model and a HUGE improvement over other market choices. Gen 2 had a few birthing problems with throttles and spiders, but did a great job in dumping the engine heat. By the 2012 end of the model run, any bugs were long since gone and heated grips were standard. Gen 3 build on the solid 2012 model and added a digital speedometer and cruise control. Again, the first year had an undesirable top speed for cruise control, but 2014+ fixed this. Downside is the FJR is so reliable it may be boring for some people. 100K miles is common place. Seems that the tupperwear goes long before the mechanicals, for when I had a spare engine in a 2012 parts bike I could not find any takers on the forums FOR FREE! [/QUOTE]
