Took a second hand 2010 model I think 38,000k on it for a spin tonight ... Very impressed makes the FJR1300 a joke !, gear shift nice and light easy to flick between gears, the fjr you really had to jam it in or you'd be stuck between gears, gtr feels a lot lighter to put into corners, light clutch lever also, if I can get the trade for my Tmax it's mine. Be easy to modify the shifter lever. May go for the one I rode what are these like @ 40,000k on them ?

Thanks everybody,

VFR1200FD one left in Perth but dealer can't return my email / calls to revise my trade in, and that's lead me to investigate other options.

Yamaha discontinued there auto model in Australia ... can't believe they didn't sell enough.
(any manufacturer :censored:)

Found a dealer with 1400GTR feels nice sitting on it but no demo ... looks like I could configure something up of the shifter.

Having a look at FJR1300A tonight on the way home it's a demo but pissing down at the moment so not likely to let me out on it.

I have seen the solenoid changers but it's a bit ugly but if I need to I'll have to hoping the heel lever will do.

Hi everybody,

I'm seriously looking at buying 2013 model but I have a problem with my left foot after taking out the side of a car 8 or so years back.

I owned Suzuki bandit 1250 but after changing jobs which increased my gear changing 10 fold by mid week I was struggling to do gear up shifts.

Do you guys think I could modify the gear lever to create a heel changer lever?, there's no dealer close to go and check this out myself.

Thks Greg
