Most of you won't consider the FJS a sports bike but it's the nearest I've come to riding a "real" sports bike, I guess it's a sports tourer. I've had lots of bikes though, all standards. Anyway, I took one for a test ride today - Barnet hwy, Balcara, Bunsen etc, and thought it was a hoot, Scenery quickly turned to a blurr along with the flashing lights behind me. It has double the HP of any bike I'd previously ridden (150).
I'm considering buying one and looking for comments from owners or others with experience/insight on the bike. The only negatives I noticed was the heat, I stopped to see if there was a problem with the bike and burned my hand on the frame (doh), and my arms/wrists got tired but both of these issues may be common to all sports type bikes, I'll do more bench presses.
Thanks for any insight.
