Yamaha FJR description

Thanks for taking a look at my FJR! I think you will love this bike - I certainly have. My wife and I are looking to get something larger and more cruiser-like, so that's why it's on the market. I would trust it for many more miles. It is an amazing sport-tourer with some great extras to enhance comfort, performance, and safety. Here's some info on the bike, and feel free to contact me with any specific questions. It's priced about $500 below NADA value for this bike and option set, with some brand-new components! Also for sale locally.

EXTRAS

V-Stream touring windshield (super clear, no distortion, directs wind over rider)
Corbin saddle (rider and passenger)
Givi Monokey detachable rear trunk
Traxxion Dynamics front fork springs (smooths out the front and improves steering)
MCL Sport Touring Handlebar riser (raises bars approx. 1" for a more comfortable position)
Flashing headlight modulator for higher visibility (safety feature, can be run in hi or lo beams, Automatically activates during the day and deactivates at night. Can also be manually turned on/off).
Back Off flashing rear brake light to increase visibility.
TP Checker tire pressure monitoring system (digital readout of front / rear tire pressure & temp.)
Frame sliders
Techspec tank grip pads
Throttlemeister locking cruise control bar-end

HISTORY
I am the third owner. Most of the miles were put on by the second owner, who runs the website RiderGroups.com. He is a MSF instructor, rode a lot of highway miles on it, and took great care of it. I used it some for commuting, but mostly for weekend trips to places like the Ozarks as well as Deals Gap in NC. It has ridden the Dragon!

CONDITION / MAINTENANCE

Oil regularly changed with synthetic. Last changed at 43K, and good for 7,000 miles.
Overall chassis lube, general tune-up and valve check performed at ~40K by MAG Powersports in Forney. The valves were well within clearance, and you'd have another ~20K miles before another valve check is needed.
No leaks or drips of any kind.
Front fork completely rebuilt with new springs installed at ~43K.
Front tire Michelin Pilot road 3 with ~4,000 miles on it. Probably 50% tread left
Rear tire BRAND NEW Michelin Pilot Road 4. I just had it installed the other day.
Brand new battery
Overall in excellent condition. A few scuffs here and there as expected from a used bike, but nothing major.

What Would Colin Edwards Do?

Wed, 25 May 2011

As fast as Colin Edwards is on the track, the Texas Tornado may be even quicker behind a microphone. We saw some of that last year in the Yamaha-produced “Man-Cation” video with Edwards and his then-Tech 3 teammate Ben Spies, and Edwards can always be relied upon for a good quote at press conferences. The producers of MotoGP’s official video podcast “After the Flag” have taken notice of CEIII’s wit.

Yamaha Files Suit Over Scooter Design

Yamaha has filed a lawsuit against a pair of Japanese companies alleging their electric scooter copies the design of the Yamaha Gear BX50 scooter. The Yamaha Gear BX50 (pictured left above) is a 50cc four-stroke scooter sold in Japan as a commercial-use model, aimed for small business such as newspaper distributors. Yamaha has been offering the BX50 (and the BX50N variant) since 2007, selling 39,917 units as of December 2011.
