Hi
I'm in Southern Ontario, Canada.
I don't have an FJ, nor have I ever owned one.
Back around 84 I test rode an 1100, first sporting bike I ever rode, made a big impression.
The other day I picked up a copy of Motorcycle Classics magazine, and in there was a really nice, and nicely modified 1100.
A really nice machine he'd dubbed FJ1400, good article if you haven't seen it.
Anyway its got me thinking about one again.
Maybe get rid of the BMW, and get a clean FJ...
We'll see .
There's quite a few of us in Ontario from London to Niagara to GTA and eastwards and North. Now's a good time to buy. There are over a dozen 1100s/1200s listed on kijiji/Craig's list alone. Check out the location map .
Let us know where you are generally (if you like). Riding anything now? Or in the past?
The bike in the article belongs to Father Pat. Conlon that is . He is a wealth of knowledge and has a really shiny bike. Also is one of the senior members on this forum. Big R
Don't forget to make mention about Pat's hair...
Monkey, listen up - some things just ain't funny...!
Thanks for the welcome.
I'm in the Chatham area, and I do have bikes running presently.

Sorry no cure for that here. But there are plenty of enablers. :good2:
Keep an eye out for spring bike clinic coming up soon hosted by a fellow member. Also we have an annual late summer weekend camp & ride that we try to scrape together out on the barrens of the eastern highlands North of Kingston.
Lots of fun for everyone. A sample
