thats exactly why i am getting it. i rode my friends a couple years ago and couldnt get over what a blast it is to ride.

as an admitted novice on technical roads, its just a little too hairy working on your cornering on the FJR...the drive shaft lash and sensitive fuel injection makes controlling the weight transfer with the throttle a lot of work. the 250 will have a lot softer punch when you gas it and should be cake to muscle around.
