CB13000s....done that for 3 years. Great bike but poor build quality and Honda are a bunch of sh*!ebags
You guys have sort of put me off the FJR a bit being honest. In summary a great bike but a big old unweldy lump suited for motorway cruising seems to the be common feeback.
I initially though Tiger 800 (don't like the 1050) but the maintenance/servicing and more specifically the horror stories owners have been giving about dealer back up (and faults) is really putting me off. That and my local Triumph dealer is sh*!e (did it mention that previously
)
I have had most of the big bore "muscle bikes", with the exception of Suzuki cos they are made of of cheese, and I keep coming back to the Fazer.
I am now in a dilema as what to buy (MkII 600 + '10 FZ1 - had both so I know what to expect) or something completely off field.
