FJR1300: My New Bike

I loved my Burgie but I kind of out grew it and my wife would not allow me to get into MBS (Multiple Bike Syndrome) so I traded the Burgie (along with cash) for a Yamaha FJR1300.

Now maybe the Harley guys will wave back...nah.

Hi: very beautiful bike, I have a 2011 silver but the black always is my #1 color

enjoy and drive safe.

@MrKing1961 Thanks my firend. It's been to Cali and to Deals Gap with absolutely no problems. I enjoy riding it and try to ride as much as possible.

Hope to see you on the road.

YES, CONNECTICUT.

@FZ6R09 Yeah, I lived in Carmel near Danbury. We had the trees come down on us in April. Big Nor'easter.

The wife told me half million people are without electric in the area. Pretty cold here (around 29F). I hope you

don't lose the power.

INTERESTING, WE GOT HIT WITH SO MUCH SNOW LAST WINTER IT MADE ME SICK TO MY STOMACH. WE WERE GETTING SNOW BY THE FOOT EVERY OTHER DAY. I FIND IT VERY DISTURBING WHEN I CAN'T RIDE. THE SNOW HAS COME EARLY FOR US THIS OCTOBER, AND WITH MOST OF THE LEAVES STILL ON THE TREES, THIS SNOW STORM COULD BE REALLY BAD. BUT IF THE ROADS ARE CLEAR ENOUGH, I'LL BE RIDING TOMORROW. THANKS FOR RESPONDING.

@FZ6R09 You must be in New England or near the city. I hope the trees don't start falling on the power lines there. Lost my power for 5 days (in winter) once in a similar situation.

[FZ6R09]

I HOPE I DON'T, IF I LOSE POWER, NO YOUTUBE, WHICH IS A GREAT ALTERNATIVE WHEN YOU ARE UNABLE TO GO OUT & RIDE. YOU CAN ALWAYS WATCH OTHERS ENJOYING THEIR MOTORCYCLES.

T'S COOL THAT YOU USE TO LIVE IN CT. A LOT OF BACK ROADS TO RIDE THROUGH IN THAT DANBURY AREA.

@FZ6R09 Hi. Sorry it took so long to reply.

Glad you're enjoying the FJR. If I go too many days without riding it, I get grouchy! WInter is tough!! :-o

Thanks for watching my vids!

[FZ6R09]

WHEN I FIRST SAW THE FJR I KNEW I HAD TO HAVE IT. BUT BECAUSE OF THE SIZE, WEIGHT AND I JUST PASSED THE SAFETY COURSE I WENT WITH THE FZ6R. 3,700 MILES AND 4 MONTHS LATER, I PURCHASED 2010 FJR, IN JUST OVER A YEARS TIME I PUT 15,000 MILES ON IT. THE FJR IS A GREAT BIKE YOU GET THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS, SPORT & TOURING. I ENJOY YOUR VID'S KEEP POSTING.
