I have been a HONDA diehard for years and for me
to change to another brand shows that Yamaha has a
hell of a bike with the FJR.
Here are some photos including a 2000 mile trip through Nevada, Utah and Arizona.
(Odometer: 500-2500 miles)
MPG- During canyon riding I get 40 mpg.
During freeway riding while in Utah and Az. where the
vehicles average 90 mph I cruise for long periods at 100 mph and I
get 53 mpg.
I have the ABS and I strongly suggest it for your bike.
The FJR has a 1300cc (1.3 liter) engine with 145 hp and is
nicknamed among the FJR crowd "Rocket".
RPM @ 70mph=4k. 80mph= 4.5k. 90mph=5k. 125mph=7k. Redline is 9k.
