Title: Slight 1984 FJ1100 modifications
Post by: BadBro on June 06, 2014, 01:56:18 PM
Recently installed RPM dual foam air pods, dog bones, supertrapp exhaust system, dyna jet kit, and speigler brake and clutch lines.  As a note, if you order the speigler brake line kit, make sure the rear brake line measures 15" tip to tip.  Mine was 14" and works fine, however the extra inch would give a nicer curve on rear line.  Tweaked by Vel at Privateer Motorcycles.  Thanks Vel and Randy.

The exhaust originally came from a 1200.  Had the tubes shortened at the cylinder section and end section by 1" to accommodate the chin scoop.  Than "autosol" the whole exhaust system.

 We all would like that extra inch I think. I like your bike it looks awesome. Good work with the mods.
