Guest Tmartin Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 After over 3 years and 26,000 miles I'm selling my 2000, V11S. I just need a bike with more fairing--too old to get beat up on 500 mile rides. I really enjoyed owning the bike. It's been lots of fun to ride as well as work on. If anyone is interested the link is below. I bought an 2005 Yamaha FJR 1300 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...2482525770&rd=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francesco Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 wow that is changing direction... looks like robocop, $12,899* ABS model, now thats a good price. Are you going to miss the leaking oil and noisy dry clutch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest davidb Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 And the heat that comes off those water cooled bikes will keep you warm in the winter. ( and summer) The milage range on those is real nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dkgross Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 I've been looking at the FJR as a 'second' bike for the real hard core touring. It's an amazing machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antonio carroccio Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 Come on guys, not everyone is made to drive a Moto Guzzi. Some folks like just to own one. But if somebody needs a bike with more fairing, why not a California? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al_roethlisberger Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 ...or a LeMans But seriously, good luck with the FJR though, it's a great bike. I was on the initial customer petitions some years ago to get Yamaha to bring that bike to the US when it was first announced that in Yamaha's view... "those kind of bikes don't sell well in North America" ..and it was only going to be a Euro bike <_> But when I finally found a gray market FJR to test out before it came to these shores, it was just too big for my tastes, bigger than my FJ1200, and my FJ was already too big for me ...and then I saw the LeMans ... and there ya go However, I'm sure you'll love the FJR and good luck with it!

docc Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 Wow! Very encouraging that someone scooped it up. The last couple Sports I watched lingered for while and failed to sell. Hope the new guy finds us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
