The engine is forward inclined for improved handling, power reaches the rear wheel via shaft drive and it's available in three flavours with the base FJ1300A costing £13,450. The 3-spoke 17" wheels take a 120/70 tyre at the front and 180/55 at the rear.
Compared to the 2006-2012 model the dash is a new design, suspension has been tweaked, power is up 3 bhp, the fairings tweaked a bit and the exhaust system is new. The rider's seat height can be set at 805 mm or 825 mm while the electrically adjustable screen stays put even when the bike is off.
Accessories include dual Akrapovic mufflers (£1,323), 20 litre panniers (£387), 50 litre top box (£457), comfort rider seat (£215), comfort pillion seat (£145), tall screen (£212), hand guards (£178) and carrier rack (£172).
