The FJR's 145 horsepower, light aluminum frame, push-button adjustable windscreen, standard ABS, adjustable ergos and more, widen the gap between it and common sport tourers to a gaping chasm.  Steering on the Yamaha is spot on, with the 26-degree rake and 60.6-inch wheelbase delivering a near perfect blend of maneuverability and stability. Tipping in at 672 and 686 lbs (632 and 646 tank-empty), the regular and automatic FJRs are well-balanced -- the extra 14 lbs of the AE almost imperceptible. Turning on the FJR is an afterthought with transitions effortless -- the best of our testing group. 

Suspension is provided by Yamaha's Soqi 48mm fork and a single rear shock, each unit delivering a respective 5.4 and 4.8 inches travel. The fork is adjustable for preload, compression and rebound, with small knobs on top of the triple clamp allowing riders to dial in a setting with relative ease. The shock is adjustable for preload and rebound with an accessible lever under the right subframe offering a hard and soft setting. Both components suck up road imperfections without trouble and transmit a solid, familiar feeling when underway.

The Yamaha ergos are comfortable, encouraging long stints in the saddle. A wide seat was one of the best in our test, although some testers preferred the Kawi and BMW perch. Seat height is adjustable, between 31.5 -- 32.3 inches. Reach to the bars and pegs feels natural but the FJR riding position is eager as well, egging its master to wick up the throttle.

The regular FJR grinds out 123.6 horsepower and 88.8 lb-ft of torque at the rear wheel. Subtract 2.4 ponies and 3 lb-ft and you get the power numbers from the AE. The practical application of this power translates into a more than enough oomph for the street. Both bikes are spry enough to loft the front wheel, although we were loathe to wring out the clutch-less AE in an effort to pull a wheelie for fear of looping out. Throttle response isn't the smoothest in our test, but isn't a problem either. The one caveat being a brief hesitation in engagement at low speeds on the automatic
