Hi all. New member from Ottawa, Canada. I`m also on the UK forum and they`re the ones who recommended I check this site out for a problem my FJ is having. I`ll post that in the help section in a minute.
I bought my `88 FJ in 1999 and have loved it since. I also own a V65 Sabre, a CBR1100XX, an SRX600, and just recently a Ducati ST2.
I`m an AME who likes doing pretty well all my own maintenance and as much of the machining and painting as I can. We`ve got some good roads about an hour west of here and I also like going down to northern New York/Vermont. Lake Placid area is great!
Anyone else in the Ottawa area?
Ray
Welcome Ray,

Welcome Ray.. :hi:.. From Barrie here. Like Bob says, Calabogie area has some awesome roads.
Lots of good info here.
Cheers...Jake

Hi Ray I'm in the Ottawa area of course! Anytime you need help on anything just call me LOL :biggrin: (Actually I believe Ray has helped me out a few times; he's the expert/I'm the noob!!).
Welcome aboard. There's an FJ rally in Boone NC next week; you should ride down with me and meet the boys and girls!
:good2: glad to see you Ray, don't forget about the North East Rally.
might be a little closer than Boone
Welcome to the group Ray,

Welcome Ray,
Paul from Napanee, here. I gotta get up there and ride the roads in the calabogie area! I plan on it this year. Maybe stay for a weekend. There are lots of FJ owners in the local area. I'm aware of 2 in Kingston, 2 in Picton, 1 in Sterling, and a couple in Belleville/Trenton. I've met 3 of them. I've also heard of a fellow who owns more than one in Carleton Place.
Awesome members here who share their expertise. I am an amateur mechanic and try to do all my maintenance....I try to make a habit of checking things out here, first, for the tips and experience available. Sometimes I wonder which I enjoy more, working on them, or riding them.
It must be that 'moditis' affliction I hear about now and then :wacko1:
If your in the area look me up...I'm only 20 min from Kingston...could be 10 mins too. :biggrin:. Lots of rhubarb here too! :drinks:

Hi Ray,
