Re: For Sale: Original Luggage Carrier $10 Plus Shipping Promised for local pick-up.

Came off my '14 ES prior to delivery. Yours for $10 plus actual shipping costs. Preparing to move to Mexico, so... everything must go!

Re: Pair of Bestem Side Case Liners $30 Pick-up Only Sold, pending payment.

In like-new condition. Local pick-up only in Lakewood or Morrison (Denver).

Replied.

Thanks, stomp!

Thanks, Checks. I'll try not to become an irritating FJR evangelist here.

This morning I mounted up the Givi SR357 rack that arrived last week. It will carry the Givi top case that's due to arrive on Monday. Then I installed the Fenda Extenda, then investigated power options for the GPS (the mount for which will arrive later this week). Decided to use the 12-volt...

Will certainly do.

+1 ...and thanks, everyone, for the kind wishes.

Color? My only choice was Cobalt Blue. (Wanted a '16, not a '17 for financial reasons, and had to have ES.) Never had a blue bike before... Initial impressions... Pulling away from the dealer, I was appalled by how little legroom there is on the FJR, but I find I'm getting used to it already...

Thanks. Who knows... I may own a Ténéré again, some day...

Unfortunately, no. Age discrimination is widespread in tech, and I've come to think I may be stuck where I am until I can retire ...should that day ever arrive...

I traded my ever-faithful 2014 Super Ténéré ES today, leaving the dealer on a 2016 FJR1300 ES with 0 miles on the clock. Thanks to all the wonderful folks here, most especially to Don in Lodi (who shipped me his front wheel sensor after an independent shop mis-routed the front wheel sensor...

Thanks! Somehow, Intuit had not come up in my searches. A lot of their Software Engineering positions are at a senior level, but I found one that I felt qualified for, and applied.

Yeah, they were actually one of the first places I applied. They seem not to be looking for experienced software developers. They can pay kids just out of college a lot less ...or so I understand....

Hi, Dave and ::004:: What drove your decision to part company with the FJR? My path over the past few years has been 2012 V-Strom 1000, 2010 FJR, 2014 Super Ténéré ES. I love my Super-T, but am currently afflicted with a bad case of FJR lust. (No, I cannot afford two bikes.) I suspect that a...

I wish two bikes was a reasonable idea. Not realistic for me. The FJR is the only bike I'm aware of that has (1.) shaft drive, (2.) cruise control, (3.) an inline- (or V-) four and (4.) YamaKawaHondaZuki reliability and dealer network. I actually owned one briefly; I had a 2010 for about five...

::004:: klingklang from Colorado. The S-10 is a great ride. Enjoy the forum.

That's my biggest fear... or maybe the saving grace... that I will eventually, somehow, ride an ES FJR and conclude I'm not willing to give up the Tenere's plush yet controlled ride for the FJR's looks and inline-four.
