I OWN MANY BIKES..FROM HARLEY´S TO HONDA´S..AND NOW THIS 2004 FJR1300. | ||||||
|
I HAVE A NUMBER OF BIKES, AND ALL IN ALL THEY ALL HAVE THEIR PURPOSE IN LIFE, BUT AFTER RECEIVING MY 2004 FJR1300 JUST LAST WEEK, I´VE GOT TO SAY ´ ONE OF THE BEST, IF NOT THE BEST BIKE, I´VE EVER RIDDEN´. THIS BIKE HAS INCREDIBLE POWER, EVEN BEYOND MY VFR800 INTERCEPTOR, WHICH IS ALSO AN AWESOME BIKE. THE SMOOTHNESS OF THE INLINE FOUR ENGINE ON THIS FJR IS PERFECTION, INFACT I WAS LOOKING AT A BMW K1150RT, BUT THE ENGINE IN THAT BIKE NEEDED TO BE THE K1200GT ENGINE, IN ORDER FOR IT TO EVEN COME ANYWHERE CLOSE TO THE FJR1300. THE FJR IS SO FINELY BALANCED THAT IT IS EFFORTLESS TO LEAN THE BIKE WHEN MAKING A ´SWEEPER´, AND IN ARIZONA WE HAVE PLENTY OF THOSE. THE BIKES POWER STARTS FROM THE LOW RANGE, AND SEEMS TO NEVER STOP...I´M CLOSCKING 100, AND THE TACH IS NOT EVEN AT 5000 RPM. THE FJR IN THE PAST FEW YEARS HAS HAD SOME HEAT PROBLEM, WHERE YOU FEEL LIKE YOU ARE READY TO BURST INTO FLAMES AFTER RIDE THE BIKE HARD FOR THE FIRST HALF HOUR, BUT IT DOESN´T SEEM THAT BAD ON THE 2004´S...SO THEY´VE MADE SOME IMPROVEMENTS.....ANYWAY IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING A SPORT TOURING BIKE..DEFINTELY CHECK OUT THE FJR, AS IT HAS A GREAT SITTING POSITION..NOT AS AGGRESSIVE AS THE VFR 800..WHICH I´M NOW SELLING !!! AND THE GRIN FACTOR IS ABOUT 90% :) |
