Yamaha FJR description

I took delivery of this motorcycle in November of 2012, and have enjoyed nearly 44,000 trouble free miles on it, including a  Three Flags Classic rally (Mexico to Canada) and the USA Four Corners Tour. I am an FJR addict and this is my third one, having had  Generation I (2005) and Generation II (2008) models. Why am I selling this Generation III?  Because I just got a new Generation IV 2016 FJR 1300ES model! Although the mileage is higher than many, I know of some FJRs with over 100,00 miles that are still performing faultlessly with no drive-train issues at all.

 The big differences between the Gen II and Gen III models are the addition of standard cruise control and heated grips. Now I don’t know how I got by on my ’05 and ’08 without them! They’re fantastic! ABS and Traction Control are standard also.

 The motorcycle includes the following modifications, upgrades, and accessories:

  1. Powerlet rear outlet hooked directly to battery for battery tending
  2. Fused and switched power distribution block
  3. Gerbing heating clothing connection
  4. Suzuki knuckle guards
  5. Touratech GPS stem mount
  6. Wired for Garmin Zumo 590 and Escort Passport 8500 X50. (The radar detector comes with the bike.)
  7. Superbrace
  8. Magnum Blaster horn
  9. Fenda Extenda
  10. Frame sliders
  11. Modification of the glove box lid so that it opens without the requirement to have electric power on while being in Neutral
  12. Left side exhaust pipe heel guard. (The right side one came standard on Gen IIIs.)

The bike comes with a brand-new stock  rider seat since I moved the seat that I had modified from the ’13 to the ’16. It has been down once, while moving at slow speed in a gravel parking lot. This caused scratches on the right saddlebag and on the right cowl. The Yamaha decal has been lost from both saddle bags. The tires are Metzler R6s installed 8,000 miles ago. The two original keys, the extra lock for the Yamaha top case, tool kit, owner’s manual, and the body inserts for when the bags are not installed are all included.

Bring your Zumo and you’ll have an absolutely complete Sport Touring motorcycle ready for anything for years to come! I’ll see you on the road.

Jorge Lorenzo: The Lawn Mower – Video

Thu, 23 Jan 2014

If you thought only Honda made lawn mowers, think again. Little known fact: Yamaha makes a limited supply of uber high-end grass cutters every year, and they even come with an operator. In this case, none other than former MotoGP champion, Jorge Lorenzo, seen here landscaping the grounds at the Valencia circuit.

WSBK 2013: Moscow Race Report

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

Marco Melandri captured his third win of the season, the Ducati 1199 Panigale scored its first podium while Sylvain Guintoli regained the championship lead despite dislocating his collarbone days before the race. But the big news at Moscow Raceway of course was the tragic death of Andrea Antonelli in the World Supersport race. The opening-lap crash in severely wet conditions naturally led to the cancellation of the rest of the events as the World Superbike community mourns the loss of the 25-year-old Antonelli.
