Supporting Member texscottyd Posted March 14, 2019 Supporting Member Share Posted March 14, 2019 By my math, that’s 146.5k miles in 47 months... about 103.9 miles per day average, for every single day of each year. @olddawg, you are my hero! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trey Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Awesome to see that many miles on the CP3. I only have 13,000 on my 2015. Just put new sprockets and chain on, what a difference! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdb Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 2016, 8000 miles, I honestly don’t like the FJ. Between the death wobble and the vibration I think it has some poorly engineered, unfixable problems that keep it from ever being a good bike. God knows I’ve thrown enough cash at to try to make it one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a bottle of water jump out of a cup holder on a Harley from the vibration, I think it might be the wrong direction. I've got my eye on an S1000XR, I rode a friend's and its the best bike I've ever been on. Basically a race bike with bags. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had an S1000rr best bike I have ever owned, what an incredible engine. I traded it in on the 900GT because I had my neck fused and I couldn't ride the bike without pain. I looked real hard at a new XR and I just could not justify the price. Good luck with your hunt for the XR, you will not be disappointed. 1 He who dies with the most toys wins.

Basically a race bike with bags. Very nice bike indeed. Do some research on bike vibration with that model, I'm not sure if it is only specific years but there were lots of reports of handlebar vibrations. ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
