The FJR1300 is the best sports touring motorcycle. In. The. World.
Range, economy, performance, handling, stopping, brakes, pillion comfort, hard luggage and options, headlights, tyre choice options, weather protection and pricing: nothing else comes close.
If you want an over-priced, ugly-as, quirkily-unreliable ride, buy a BMW.
If you want a galleon with odd-ball tyres and peculiar hard luggage, buy an ST1300.
If you want a lesser distance range and a too-big standard muffler, buy a Concours.
Too much money, like really old-tech air-cooled engines and like cleaning chrome, buy a Chub-Glide, or a Wide King or whatever they're called.
Want something cheap as chips that will go forever and ask no questions, buy a Bandit and dress it up with the kit you need.
"Standing on your mother's corpse you told me that you'd wait forever." [Bryan Adams: Summer of 69]
