So i have been a long time admirer of the FJR. I finally put a deposit down on a 2013 with 42K miles. With winter we have snow, ice and salt slop on the roads so i will likely trailer it home in an enclosed trailer. The 2013 color is a bit odd but not the worst. I purchased the bike at a BMW dealer and over the years i have noticed they sell all their non BMW inventory at reasonable prices. It has Russell day long seats, added engine and bag guards and aftermarket massive Vstream windshield. I have an Africa Twin and a Yamaha YZ250 in the garage already. I am not really a canyon carver but more off road riding and racing. So this will be my long distance bike. Looking forward to lots of miles on the FJR.

Have you noticed that when you park your bike in the sunlight, you see a hint of bronze under the grey. Looks good, but it would be a PITA to color match. I sort of wish that MamaYama would pick stock automotive colors.
Welcome! You will have miles of smiles once you pick that bike up. In the meantime, I'd recommend picking up a service manual and start reviewing some of the maintenance.
