    It's funny how the rider in the front is sticking his ass out of the bike on every turn. He shouldn't be riding with that bad case of haemorrhoids :) .
    At those incredibly low speeds its much easier to counter steer than to pretend being Valentino Rossi :) .
    Amazing landscape. Thanks for sharing.

      Ron Tobisch He was just somewhat of a new rider at the time and probably thought he was leaning further than he really was.

    I just got back from Spearfish 3 days a go. It was such a great time. Hey, does the FJR performs almost like a sportbike? I came from a sportbike, now to a cruiser (VStar 1100). I'm thinking my next bike would be the 2013 FJR1300. Please do a review on your bike (performance and comfort wise) :)
    PS: love watching your buddy in the front lol

      The FJR is very sporty, but also very comfortable. Before I sat on an FJR I was concerned that the riding position would be too far leaned forward for my liking. In reality I find the that stock position is great, but I'm also 26. Some older guys who ride this bike put bar risers on the bike and have a truly straight up and down riding position. I will do a review of my bike and get that posted. What specific things would you like to see in a review? @twowheelobsession has a good, long review of the 2014 FJR 1300 which is essentially the same bike. The 2013 FJR is the first year of the Gen III FJR. Electronic suspension is not available on that model, something to consider if you ride 2 up a lot. Also the cruise control was limited to about 82 mph on 2013 models. On 2014 and up the cruise control limit is somewhere closer to 98 mph. Those are the only large differences I'm aware of. Also the models with electronic suspension have upside down front forks. My 2015 does not have the electronic suspension option so it gets standard forks.

    you only said maybe ten words the whole video. nice video of scenery, but lacked your comments about the ride and the bike. I really missed that. pretty awesome bike you're riding, but I only know that from other videos I've been following.

      Thanks for your comments. This video was not originally intended to be a comment heavy video, but rather capture the raw footage and scenery. I intend to post some videos with commentary soon. My camera is misbehaving at the moment.

      Tell us about that incredible bike you ride! That's what I want to hear about..

      I'll be doing a review of my bike soon. Are there any specific topics would you like me to discuss in such a video?

    • @davidgreve1081
      @davidgreve1081 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      What you like about it. What you dislike about it. How difficult you find it to navigate in a busy parking lot at low or really slow speeds. How difficult is it to make u-turn with it. Just questions that you had before you decided to buy it.
