jagermeister Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 After a year of reading and fretting, I finally decided on the FJ-09, and will put down the deposit this week. I'm a former FJR1300 rider - put 60k fast miles on an upgraded 2008 model. I really miss that bike, and considered buying another one. But, my wife isn't riding pillion anymore, so a smaller, more nimble bike makes more sense. We both ride Dual Sports now - me on a DR650, and her on a XT250. Can't wait to ride the FJ, do some farkling, trip planning, and hopefully meeting up with some of you. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruizin Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Welcome and thanks for joining us! The FJ-1300 is an awesome bike. Faster than most people realize, very comfortable. Heavy, but great for long miles. This FJ-09 may just be the best do it all bike out there. You will like the engine quite a bit. I too would like to schedule some meetups and some scheduled rides.

dndfindley Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I just joined this forum today. I also live in Tennessee. I picked up my FJ-09 Monday from Honda/Yamaha of Knoxville. Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagermeister Posted December 27, 2014 Author Share Posted December 27, 2014 After I get my FJ in the garage, maybe we can go ride. For now, you'd run circles around the DR650. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
