This is similar to the "new member, not owner yet" thread -- for the past three years I've been riding a 2015 FJR and have enjoyed it (prior to that I'd only ridden cruisers). It's a great bike, perfect in many ways for the 1-2 long trips I may make per year (3000+ miles over a week or so) as well as the more typical 200 mile single-day jaunts closer to home. But I keep wondering if something smaller and lighter would be suitable for those long hauls while at the same time being possibly more fun on the day trips? Ideally I'd have both, but I'm not sure I can justify that. So, wonder if anyone else out there has made the switch (or has both in the garage) and how you'd stack one up versus the other. Again, I know they're different bikes - and I also know that experiences are subjective - but would appreciate any personal insights that might be out there. FWIW, I'm a shade over 6' tall, 180 lbs, with a 32-33" inseam and in pretty decent shape for a "1957 model".
