Good bye FJ09

[jojosz]

I finally parted with my 2016 Yamaha FJ09 for a 2017 BMW R1200GS.

The FJ has been a great bike for 110000 miles - commuting in New York city, weekend rides to Vermont, and several cross country journeys. 

This forum has been useful in so many ways for my ride that I can't thank everyone enough! And always courteous and helpful  - please keep it that way.

@jojosz - Congratulations on the GS, and I wish you all the best on your next moto-journey!  110k miles on the FJ is impressive, and I’m glad it served you well.

I'll second everything Scott said. Feel free to pop in every once in a while and say hello.

jojosd - that is some serious mileage - congrats on the BMW, two of my buddies ride them, and love them.

I've looked at them seriously, but it is so easy to work on our FJ 09's and BMW likes to have you bring your bike in for them to service ($$$$$). It seems like it is pretty hard to do all the maintenance by yourself.

Enjoy the new bike.....

Yeah, what texscottyd said......and again, 110K is impressive.
