Well, just completed about a 600 mile overnight trip to the Ozarks. The bike is fitted with a sport touring windshield, throttle lock, and GPS mount and power source. I put on medium size soft saddle bags and a tail bag on the back seat. Took more than I needed to test it out. And I can't forget, I put my air hawk on the seat. I have a buddy that has a little bit smaller windscreen he is going to give me and I might like that a bit better, as the one on there now (a National Cycle F15 Touring).
The small tank size still bugs me. I do wish they could have made the tank a bit taller to squeeze in another gallon, but my wife actually likes it better because she was with me on her FJ09 and it has a 180 mile usable range. The Griso only has about a 150 usable range (with my riding conditions) so she didn't have to worry about me running her out.
I will say this bike will sport tour just fine and especially seemed to like the Ozark roads! The FJR will still be the long distance bike but this Griso is definitely a fun sport tourer.
