Nondescript FJR Hierarchy Displayed
I'm enjoying this discussion, with the exception of a few unpleasantries. I owned a Suzuki cruiser prior to buying the FJR and scraped those pegs on a daily basis, so bad that I got into the highway bars a few times. I have a pair of riding boots with the heels worn off at an angle from that. I always felt that I was pushing that bike to its absolute limits, but I was confident while I was doing it. The FJR is different. Unfortunately, I'm not skilled enough or experienced enough to know what to change. I'm not confident at all leaning that thing over and have never scraped a peg on it, not that that's the end-all, be-all. I'm 140 pounds, probably between 150-160 with all my gear on. I'm considering an upgrade in the suspension, but honestly don't know enough to be sure that I'll appreciate a change. I've read a few books and attempted to adjust the stock suspension, but never noticed much difference. Anyway...carry on.
