Title: Happy Thirtieth Birthday for the first and baddest FJ "the 84 FJ1100"
Post by: bigbore2 on June 05, 2014, 02:21:26 AM
Cannot believe I am riding and really enjoying my 84-1100. That is 30 years old. Still runs and rides great. Did a 3500 mi. ride last year and a 3500 mi. ride the year before. On a nearly 30 year old bike. With a bullet fairing shield. Now I went out and bought a touring shield for the long stuff and winter riding. What a difference that makes.  Anyway Happy Birthday FJ 1100!!  Kookaloo!

The baddest?, no, my friend. The most powerful of all of them, with a sweeter, more responsive, faster rpm and more efficient engine, without vibrations. Go to the 2nd page of the topic to watch the power curves

With parts and upgrades for these bikes still readily available, I wouldn't be surprised if their still being ridden on its 60th anniversary.
