Yamaha FJR description

Hello, this is my beloved YAMAHA FJR. I always thought that I was going to keep it forever but finances have changed dramatically lately and 
unfortunatelyI have to sell it
Here is a brief history of the bike.
I ordered it in January 2006 and I took delivery of it, on April 2006 fromhttp://www.eastbaymotorsports.com/ in Hayward California.
I rode it around San Francisco and East Bay when the weather permitted. I rode it very gently over the years and I treated it like a baby!
A year and a half ago my wife and I moved to Florida and we left our bike with my friend in Foster City hoping that finances will get better 
and we'll get it with us again one day. At this point I changed the registration to PNO (plan of no operation) with DMV.  The bike is been kept garaged all 
its life,
Iam the original owner of the bike. Two times my foot slipped while I was parking it and that bike layed on its side causing a dent on the muffler and minor scratches
to the hard saddlebags, the bottom side of the fairing and the edges of the handlebars. The saddlebags were not affected by that, and they work perfect and
as always they are a snap to put on and off. 
I have added the most important upgrades to it which are:
1. The larger windshield which will give you a full bubble of wind-free riding for both you and the passenger, when you adjust it
to its highest position 
2. The rear top box, I bought it from the same Yamaha dealer and its the factory one, which looks the BEST! of all aftermarket top boxes and it
fits a full helmet just like the saddlebags, but much more room. The top box is an amazing investment. I find it even more convenient than the saddlebags and it comes with a great back rest for your passenger. My wife, absolutely loves it!!!
The rear tire is great, I changed it beginning of 2012 before I left but the front one needs to be replaced soon. It will be fine for dry days but you need to change it, if you ride in the rain.
The bike runs like a dream of course, and the color has been maintained very nice over the years because the bike has always been garaged.
My friend starts it up once in a while to keep the battery fresh so it's ready to ride home,
I don't think I have more to add at this point but if you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer them. You can post them here or give me a call directly at 305 747 5912. I live in Lauderhill, Florida and my bike is at my friend's house in Foster City California, 
Thank you very much for checking this posting

Mon, 17 Feb 2014

He topped the timesheets on the first day of testing at Phillip Island, setting a time of 1:33.521, putting him at near lap-record pace. Second on the day was Dutchman Michael van der Mark, aboard the Pata Honda CBR600RR.

A breath of fresh air

Fri, 09 Nov 2012

Dean Benstead's air-powered bike project, O2 Pursuit, which we spoke about a year ago, seems to have come along nicely since. Here's a video of the Australian's rotary air compression-engined Yamaha WR250R being taken out for a spin. Apparently it can hit 87 mph and cover more than 60 miles on a scuba-tankful's worth.
