came from a zrx 1200 not as heavy as fjr, but i have ridden an fjr too heavy for me. zrx is a great all around bike. the 2010 z stock for stock is lighter quicker. and handles way better. burns through the stock tires quickly. am trying some different ones should know more after this weekend. all in all i think you'll like the z for 300 mile or less trips. i've put 350 on in one day without any problems and i'm 54. it's hard to wipe the smile off my face before, during and after a ride.
