So what do you think now that you have seen the pix and specs?

BTW we will be selling the Buell Blast soon. Going to keep the Seca 2.
I've read several articles on the FJR, Cool bike :cool: Think RIDER had a comparision with the BMW K1200T. Nobody seems to be able to find anything that makes the BMW $5k better :lol:

Finishing last
Were any Triumph dealers there? I had a chance to go for free, but my dang job had me down in NC for the weekend.

Yvette is already looking at mods on the V-Star! She has the bug.

I showed her the BMW K1200 to make the FJR case better.

:lol: You're going to have to do some sport touring now. Wanna go with me to visit Doug? I want to get another Dragon T shirt. There's also a V Strom rally at some campground near there that weekend (before the 4th of July).

I'm planning to go in May once it warms up a little and before the real crowds show up. I'm also going to hit the Wild Turkey distillery while I'm traveling. :otter:

Kid weekend and my Dad's birthday on the 30th. He'll be 93, think I need to hit his birthdays while he's still having them.

Looking to set up a day ride to Swannanoa Palace on Afton Mtn. (Waynesboro, VA). Thinking about the 2nd weekend in July.
Major James Dooley, an executive with the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Company, completed construction of the $2 million Swannanoa in 1912. Dooley, who owned the Maymont estate is Richmond, built this 52-room marble palace as a token of love for his wife, Sally May. More than 300 artisans were hired to create the palace as a replica of the Villa de Medici in Rome. They used the highest quality materials available. Visitors today can still see the depth of James and Sally May's relationship is places like the 4,000 piece Tiffany stained-glass window and a domed ceiling bearing the likeness of Mrs. Dooley. The name Swannanoa comes from Mrs. Dooley's fondness for swans, which she liked because they choose their mates for a lifetime.
Went there once in the 70's, amazing place.

Ya should have taken them both out for extended test rides before you bought..

I can't say which is better, I haven't ridden either one (and won't), but I know a few that have ridden the GT just for giggles, and ended up buying it.

I have to admit, I've seen my share of used (some less then a year old) Honda ST's on the lot's, haven't seen any FJ's yet..
