vespadaddy Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Here's a Japanese dealer's video I found that shows people of various height sitting on the FJ-09. There's also a shot of the bike 2-up, with passenger. If you're a person who lacks vertical presence, and you want to know if you can fit this bike, this video should help you decide. Be prepared to know your height in cm (metric), before you watch the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deersSlayer Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 When I first test sat on the FJ-09 the dealer had a very good price on the Super Tenere. It felt taller than the FJ. But when I check on the Yamaha Canada site, the seat in the low position of both are the same. Maybe the Tenere has a wider seat, or maybe it just felt taller due to the excess weight: 118 lb heavier! FJ-09, 690 Enduro R. Back Roads. Period.

Cant imagine what its like for you.... I thought you were going to say the speed bumps hurt your head because you kept hitting it on the ceiling of the parking structures you were driving through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
