Brand new from Yamaha for their 2014 line up, the new FJR1300E/ES.

Enjoy!

Better late than never - I was supposed to move this in the forum while the boss was away on Friday....

My thoughts - I love the update. It finally looks better after the update last year and now it has electronically adjustable suspension. I understand most of the top Iron Butt finishers this year rode FJRs which also speaks volumes about the practicality of the bike.

Awesome for me.

I like it I don't think I'd own one but never say never who knows!! I gave it a cool.

It got an awesome from me...I've always liked the FJR, but now with the updates last year I'd love to have one...top of the list for me. That would make two Yamaha's in the garage (if I had a garage). Just not sure if I want a sporty tourer, an adventure tourer, a luxo barge (Goldwing), or a bagger...depends on the new woman in my life...two wheels is my only real need, the rest is up to her (has to be comfy and weather protection)

Later.

Great looking in red too.....

Going after the R1200RT market, I see Yamaha is. I guess this is a cool thing..... problem is, I've never felt the need for electrically adjustable suspension. Once I get the suspension where I want it, I tend to leave it as is, not fiddle with it.

(I realize mine is not a popular opinion in the sport-touring community)

I voted awesome, I own a 2011 fjr and love it. It does everything well. The 2013 upgrade with somewhat new looks, traction control, new suspension makes it just that much better.

If I had the pennies, I would be hard pressed to decided between this bike and the Triumph Sprint GT/ST

IIRC, Sprints are a bit smaller/lighter, even the GT. A Concours 14 is pretty much the same size & weight as the FJR.
