The GoatBoat: 2006 Pontiac GTO

[Tyler.M]

FZ07 if your still about that rumble life. Supposedly the FZ09 suspension is absolutely horrid. Which obviously it can be fixed which would compliment that 3-cyl sound sooo nice.

I've heard they've improved it after last year but I haven't test rode one since they launched in 2014. They say they also got the power delivery issue figured out too. Even a bad by modern standards suspension is probably better than the worn out suspensions on the 10 year old bikes that I've owned.

Here's where I'm at in bike shopping: I'm not sure if I want a daily whoolie machine or something more respectable like a GS or Honda's Africa Twin.  I've had this dream to get an Aerostitch, some hard bags and do a crosscountry trek sometime in my life and I'm sort of looking for a bike that would be able to handle that. The FJ09 might be able to pull it off though and could be the best of both worlds (and not crazy expensive!) but I haven't even seen one of those at any of my local dealerships.
