I'm reminded of the most serious accident I had on my CB750. Rounded a corner, hit a patch of gas and slammed down on my knee. Bruised it bad but not seriously. Would not have been a problem in the FR. Just the other day a guy turned right in front of me. An inch and THAT car made all the difference. I was actually thrilled to experience that amount of control. Brakes and handling shined par excellence. Car banked $$$$$ itself in 3 seconds flat. He was on his damned cell phone! The very reason I quit riding. So to sum it up. I have a lot more fun in the FR than I'd ever allow myself on a bike.
