I rode into work this morning and my ride home will be the last on my GTR.  The insurance expires at midnight as my FJR arrives tomorrow.  I'm still not sure I've done the right thing but I will share my first impressions after I've had the FJR for a week and I will still have time to pull the GTR from eBay if I need to.

Wish me luck  :smiley:

Be interesting to see your comparison, hope the GTR is still there for you  :wink:
XJ600, VFR800, CBR1100, Varadero1000, CBR1100, STX1300, GTR1400 ?

The latest incarnation of the FJR seems like a very good bike.

Good luck and keep us posted

Changed  my FJR  for the GTR  it was a 08 reg but always needed the extra gear but the new one now has the six speed gear box which will make this a great bike and will be hard to beat

Invest in good waterproofs.
Don't expect to make it around corners.
Keep the GTR.
Four is fun.  Six is sex.

I concur, Mine was a 10 plate. GTR rules for me but as ever its horses for courses

ECU fault, has one failed?

PRD

Apparently some had to be re programmed as they might go backwards instead of forwards when starting off. A tad embarrassing at the traffic lights!!
