I was going to buy a '14, had to delay, and wound up with an FJ-09 two months later. After 8k miles and about 7 months on it I began to wonder if the fjr was the better bike for me (more refined, less buzz, more comfortable on long rides). I bought an 08 fjr for cheap and 3 months later traded my fj09 on the new fjr. Love it!You're right, the FJR is the best of both worlds. What aftermarket tweaks have you done? I haven't really felt compelled to do any. I have a ram mount for my phone and a factory young screen. I'd probably like to add canyon cages, and maybe a corbin, but my but does ok on the factory seat as far as LA to Vegas so far, so it's not urgent. You?

Is the fat boy the one that has often had disc rims? Or can you put those on all. There's one model that was particularly appealing to me. Might had been fat bob. I can't remember lol

Might had been fat bob. I can't remember lolThe Fat Boy was the first to have the solid rims. Made famous when Ahnold rode it in Terminator 2.The Fat Boy is a stripped-down Softail. The Fat Bob is a factory bobber based on the Dyna.

I found them to be a good contrast to the Namakubi's. Also historically they were on the cheaper side of Room 101.

Don't get it confused with the Namakubi Ecuador however. A very different cigar (even though supposedly only the wrapper changes). Not a preferred choice of mine. The Ecuador has a very earthy/mushroom taste like other Davidoff.

I should have ordered some Namakubis. But I spent so much in the past month that I hesitated. That, and it seems senseless to get hooked on a cigar that's going away. I'm still too far from retirement to lay in a lifetime supply.

It's not like you are looking for the one cigar to smoke the rest of your life, there are plenty of good ones to substitute.
