Replacing the Spyder

[MtlBen]

I decided to go back to two-wheelers, and just bought a 2014 Yamaha FJR1300ES (Canadian version is black):

I wanted to say thanks to all forum members for past help/advice.

This forum is the most active and most helpful that I have seen so far. There is an AMAZING amount of collective knowledge here, and one thing that strikes me is the mutual respect between forum members.

Even though I did not post all that much, I have been a very regular reader, and I will most likely remain so. There are enough non Spyder-specific discussions happening that I am sure I will continue learning from you guys.

Once again, thanks for the ride.

Riding on two is harder for some to give up than others. The FJR was a great choice and should serve you well. Enjoy!

Nice bike! Stay safe!

Great looking bike :thumbup: I just got off the 2 wheelers a couple years ago. I do ryde a 2 wheeler when renting in other locations (most recently Arizona - Gold Wing ).

I like the feel of both types -- they are all good - just different. :2thumbs:

I REALLY enjoy my 2014 RT L....it's a great bike. :yes::yes::yes::yes:



Stay in touch with us and wish you the best with your new bike -- looks great! :thumbup::thumbup:

wise choice. My favorite 2 wheeler along with the Coucours and the honda st1300.

[spydaman60]

classy ride!!! :2thumbs: good luck with it!!

[MtlBen]

Thanks for the good wishes.

You will definitely hear from me again. There are so many discussions in this forum about fuse block, GPS, battery tenders, tracking software, run-flat, lighting, bluetooth and countless other ones that I would be a fool to stop learning from you guys.

I am sure i will be meeting some of you on the road side, or at Tim Horton's while criss-crossing the Laurentians or the Eastern Townships.
