  1. FJ-09 sold as a sport-tourer. Built from a naked sport bike. Other manufactures have a different ways of defining their bikes as sport-touring, such as: gearing like constant mesh spur and or helical. Then engine selection and type, comforts like cruise control, seat location/type, wind/weather protection. Yamaha has it seems allowed us to buy a SPORT-tourer. Which IMO means if you want more of a touring bike buy accessories. Or if you want more of a sport-bike buy accessories. But most of all have fun! 8-)
  2. adjuster: Is that PC adding lead to a imported motorcycle?
  3. Have same here. brand new bike, and buzzing vibe starting around 4.0k and constant till a little passed 4.6k. Changed the hand grips to a set of Pro-1's superbike style. Vibes are lessened but not gone. Then brought a new pair of Alpinestar gloves with the extra layers of leather on the palms. That helped some more but, The vibes are still there. I'm guessing it has to do with the metallurgy of the engine being bolted directly to the frame. Could be something as simple as a over/under tightened bolt. lighter density metals are more prone. Now my issue I have with the bike is the loud whine when accelerating in 6th. gear. Which i'll being sharing in another post.
