Lots of useful information on these bikes. Thanks everyone.

 

I have been thinking of replacing my CB1300. I have been looking at the Fazer 1000 and the FJR. This discussion helps a lot.

 

I do have a question though. I like all the above but my wife likes the Valkyrie (or any Cruiser). I am a power junkie although top speed is not a big factor. The Valkyrie is very difficult to park in street parking bays due to its size. Can anyone suggest a cruiser that is not as gigantic as the Valkyrie but has good preformance? Only the Magna comes to mind.

I am old enough to remember when bikes were dangerous and sex was safe.

cruisers???

 

oh well... u hv to decide whether u r the rider.. or ur wife...

 

wud u pay for sumthing u wudn't realli prefer... and end up not liking it at the end of the day???

 

ultimately... the rider muz like his ride.. n not the pillion... coz she wun be travelling with it... u wud be....

 

till now... i hvn seen any cruisers worthy of the performance FJR provides.. speed handling n comfortability....

 

2pence worth....

 

if u wan cruiser... try for yamaha tink itz called the roadstar warrior (import onli) or the VTX... else try lukking for Harleys or BMWs..... but itz a totalli diff riding class...

 

not everyone can handle an FJR... but everyone can ride the cruisers... if u got the $$... :cheeky:

You are right of course.

 

Its not that I don't like cruisers. I love the Valkyrie (had one for five years in the Philippines) but parking would be very difficult in Hong Kong.

 

I know I won't get a cruiser with the performance of an FJR or CB1300. I would be happy with something less but not too much less :) If it is much less then I would not enjoy the ride at all.

I had a Vmax a few years ago. She wouldn't go near it :help:

 

I think her main problem is she hates sitting up high on a bike that has massive acceleration and no back rest to stop her falling off.

:nono: yes,i fully agree with u on sengkwang price nowadays, really duno how they derive the prices sometimes, cos price of metal only goes up by 40%, but the price they quote usually much much more then 40% o_O

No I never scared her, she just feels safer on a big cruiser.

 

A top box is a good idea and could be the best solution.

No I never scared her, she just feels safer on a big cruiser. The Vmax had very short open pipes (forgot the name) and was painfully loud. It was a mean monster that looked and sounded like it would be extremely fast and uncomfortable - which of course is exactly what it was.

Hi, newbie here...

 

I thot a lot of people said (some FJRians from this thread said so too) that Tamaha actually don't recommend putting 3 boxes (2 original side boxes + a top-rear box behind)... Heard put 3 boxes at the same time will cause unstability for the bike... FJR only meant for EITHER 2 side boxes OR 1 top-rear box behind...

 

However, I saw Cybernation and his FJR :lovestruck: at Motorworld one or two weeks back... He has three, so I thought it should be ok with 3 boxes... Just a bit confused...
