Motoring at a rapid pace up the coast past Cambria and San Simeon, it is easy to fall in love with the Yamaha FJR1300. We already discovered as much in our previous S-T comparos, with the FJR victorious in 2004 and just falling short in 2006. If it was to be victorious this year, it would be a real upset, as our Tuning Fork test bikes, which included the ABS-equipped standard and auto-shifting AE version, were 2007 models - the only '07s in our testing cadre.

Approaching the darkened mountains of Big Sur, we charged through the dark for our Monterey hotel beds in the refined comfort and immediate confidence radiating from the Yamaha. Whereas most bikes headline with the motor, the highlight of the FJR, by far, is its stellar handling. Every rider in our entourage commented on the natural feedback and feel offered up by the sporty ride.
