Squid4Life Posted February 10, 2019 Author Share Posted February 10, 2019 Thanks but truth be told i try to avoid the city as much as i can(im in bklyn btw)...main reason i got the fj(after great reviews) is the comfort and ergos 4 2up riding. Only issue so far is the weather.....smh. 24° Now...😭 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking fwd to many mods and getting out of the city...lol Welcome to the forum. At a very minimum, get a radiator guard to protect from rocks and road debris damage. For touring comfort, get the suspension sorted. In my opinion (and experience) the forks are -ok- but the shock is severely lacking and will only feel worse once you add a passenger. This bike completely transforms with proper suspension. BTW - I LOVE the white model. Enjoy! ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squid4Life Posted February 10, 2019 Author Share Posted February 10, 2019 Thanks...will look into a shock upgrade. We are planning a ride to the Blue Ridge Pkwy this April(spring break)....so comfort is the #1 priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawkgeo Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Welcome! I grew up in New Jersey. There are a lot of great roads to ride; especially along the shore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
