cowboyrog Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I was able to sit on a demo FJ 09 today at the local shop. Being 6'3" and 230 lbs I need a larger style bike. Currently ride a '13 Duc Multistrada but just wanted to test this one out. Fit and finish was better than I expected but of course need to take a test ride. Just had some brain surgery so that will have to wait (no nothing to do with riding.) The fit and finish were nice, the design was good and felt very comfortable. Being in my 60's comfort is the number one reason I will buy a bike if it has enough performance. Now trying to decided if I really like the FJ after a ride. Do I sell the Duc, keep both or find a young blonde to run off to South America with? Not really worried about this being a first year bike since the design has been tweaked on the FZ 09 and it appears very solid. Looking forward to this site growing like crazy in the next couple of months and joining the ranks of the FJ 09 crew. CowboyRog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funjaunt Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 As I close in on 70, I find I'm still looking for that young blonde so I suggest you stick with one or other of the first two. Keeping both would probably be cheaper than the blonde . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
