I've gotten a kick out of reading the FJR comparisons. ::008:: That's my current bike, an 05 along with a K75c.
I'm ready for something different.... I think.
The mach1 speed references are something I can relate to and think getting something with less power will cure my need for speed? Ha ::025::, I run the same speeds on my K75. ::010::
It's not about the bike, it's about discipline. Am I really going to slow down by getting a different bike? Doubtful.
I need to control myself, realize that I'm not invulnerable like I was when I was younger. ;D
So I'm looking at whether I'll be as comfortable on the Super10 as I am on the FJR. Granted the seating position on the FJR is wearing on me but the air pocket and road comfort has me worried about parting with it. (Currently running double risers so I can't get closer to a dirt bike stance.)
Back on topic, why does the Super10 need more power?
Are you not satisfied with the power it has?
Does it need a 7th gear like many think the FJR needs a 6th? ???
Like what others have said, chances of Yamaha boosting displacement are very thin considering their history. The 2nd gen improvements were pretty sweet, what other "little" improvements could they make would be my question.
What I'm looking for is smoothness around 70-80mph, a wind pocket so a 400 mile day won't wear me out even more, storage and electronic cruise.
Fuel mileage in the 60's?...now that's where the Super10 could be improved.
