Title: 1990 lower spoiler, windshield
Post by: Kellywest on April 06, 2017, 08:31:41 PM
I need the lower chin spoiler and a windshield for my 1990 fj1200. I am in Illinois so if I can find one in the USA would be better (easier shipping)

Thanks, I've seen that but for another $50. I could get a gimble that would connect to the bottom of the main fairing. I am considering going that route and cutting it to help get more air to the motor. I've seen a couple done that way on this site that I like. Decisions, decisions

The lower is not required for proper air flow. The FJ has no fan to flow air while sitting still so keeping her moving will be enough. But it also is not going to hurt it. It will keep some heat off your legs in stop and go traffic and provide the fully covered look. It also makes adding case protection a challenge. In my opinion the case protection is more important for getting home after an unscheduled dismount. But I also appreciate the full lower when done well.
