Because it's not the only consideration. In fact, when I made the decision
to go for the FJ, that it doesn't have shaft drive was the strongest
argument against it. But I got a dood deal on an almost like new bike
(_extremely_ low kms - the former owner had several other bikes, so as you
can only ride one at a time none got too much use :-)), plus the XJ was (and
is AFAIK) not available with ABS. And I like the FJ's extra horses... :-)
