Yamaha FJR description

2013 Yamaha FJR1300A, No freight or set up! After rebate and trade up. call for details 503 769 8888Over the past decade, sport-touring has been on a bit of a roll. And the one bike, more than any other, responsible for getting that ball rolling was the FJR1300. When it burst on the scene here in 2002, the FJR proved wonderfully capable of both carving up the backroads and cruising the open roads, doing it with one of the stoutest engines on two wheels and a full complement of features geared for moto-touring, all for a manageable price through a large dealer network. Not coincidentally, sport-touring soon metamorphosed from a remote niche to a ?mainstream category. In the process, the FJR won? Cycle World s Best Sport-Touring Bike? award in 2002 and 2004.Since then, the spotlight has gradually shifted to other sport-tourers that continued to push the frontiers of technology and performance while the Yamaha remained largely status quo. But the FJR is mounting a comeback. For 2013, Yamaha has gifted the 1300 with a makeover that, while well short of a full redesign, is extensive enough to breathe new life into the old girl.A perfect example is the engine, even though it is fundamentally unchanged. According to our new Dynojet 250i dynamometer, the dohc, 1298cc inline-Four pumps out virtually the same peak horsepower (124.9 at 8200 rpm) and torque (89.3 foot-pounds at 6700) as before. But small dimensional changes to the throttle bodies and the exhaust system s internals are designed to improve rideability. Plus, the new bike has a two-position Drive-mode that allows the rider to select either Touring (softer throttle response and more-gradual power delivery) or Sport (completely unrestricted power) on the fly. The 13 model also includes a standard traction-control system that can be switched off with one push of a button. Serving Salem and Portland area.

No snow here folks!

An erratic work schedule combined with a full season of kids racing means, there aren’t many opportunities during the summer months for the Mackenzie family to grab a holiday. Instead, we tend to save our pennies and head off somewhere sunny for Christmas. I love doing this as it shortens the UK winter but more importantly it means I miss the festive frenzy.  I do like Christmas, but I hate how everyone gets caught up in the retail madness that kicks off just before Halloween, then has everyone stressed (and skint)before Santa has even hitched up his sleigh.
