Jeff, Sounds like a great ride. I'm all over that. It's funny because I also have an FJR. I love that bike. If I had to sell something, As much as I love my Duc, I would keep my FJR. Like everything I own, it's no longer stock. It has aftermarket suspension, brakes it's hard wired for my GPS, Comms and heat. It really is a fantastic sport-tourer. I have just under 50K on it and enjoy riding it everytime I get on it.

One of the first things I did on the Duc was hardwire it for my heated jacket liner. I dont leave on a multi day trip without it. I usually wear leathers when I'm on the Duc so space underneath them is tight and wearing something over them creates an issue with storage later. with the heated jacket liner, I turn up the heat as needed and turn it completely of it it warms up. If it gets really warm, I can roll it up and stuff it in a tank bag. Layering works, but I really don't like to feel of two or three additional items under my gear. It's to constricting.
