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.

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

Whenever we publish stories about the motorcycle industry in India, we still get comments from readers surprised at how big a role that nation’s market plays, and perhaps more poignantly, how small it makes the U.S. market look. The latest sales numbers from Hero MotoCorp, India’s market leader, should further highlight the importance of India’s motorcycle market.

New Delhi Auto Expo 2012 – Motorcycle Manufacturers Draw Battle Lines for World’s Second Largest Market

Mon, 09 Jan 2012

In past years, the biennial Auto Expo in India slipped under the radar while the industry was focused more on shows such as EICMA in Italy and Intermot in Germany. But with India’s middle class starting to flex its financial muscle while other markets continue to struggle, the New Delhi show is becoming much more prominent, with major OEMs positioning themselves to claim a piece of the India’s 13 million vehicles-a-year market. We’ve already looked at India-produced Royal Enfield’s new Thunderbird 500 and Hero Moto’s hybrid scooter concept which debuted at the Auto Expo, and today we’ll look at what the major international OEMs presented.
