Hello I'm new to this forum. Just testing what kind of people you all are by showing you my lightly modified FJ.
It looks quite good from that angle.
I've seen you posting up over on the FB page under a different name, Senor Eggster or summat.
Definitely not the first fightered FJ on here!
Can't see from this angle how you handled the front of the frame - that will be how people on here will determine what they think of your buildups ultimately.
Don't really give a shit about passing some test about what kind of people I am. You've been on the site long enough to know this isn't some anally retentive must make everything a factory correct restoration group here.
Still in Japan?
No fairings is only part of a proper streetfighter - where's the horsepower?! :drinks:
I won't get much support on this - but my favorite FJ streetfighter - and possibly my favorite fighter ever (and I still have a stack of the streetfighter mags from UK when they were still printing)
search username jnimbostratus here - he also covered the build / evolution on the custom fighters site. Yes all that plumbing is a home brewed intercooled turbo eft setup
Congrats! You passed the test.
I have tried posting photos to facebook FJ groups a few times but was either bombarded by abuse for 'hacking up a lovely old FJ' or simply the moderators didnt allow my bike to be posted.
My bikes frame is stock. Still in the maintenance/restoration stage with my bike.
Glad you haven't cut the front of the frame. There have been at least a couple where people have cut off the ugly "perimeter frame" at the front and done nothing to strengthen that area.
More pics?
BIFFY425 you son uva bitch! I swear I seen your bike on yt once, maybe an earlier iteration of what it currently is? If so right on! Would love to hear and see more work from you!
Welcome to the campfire :hi:
I like how you shortened the tail looks great would like to see a write up with pics of that process. What are you using to cover the fork tubes?
I agree! Let's see how you did it. I too am looking to do this and will be more than happy to share mine as well, I ha e two OEM seat so I might chop one up and try to get the lines to match up well enough, but we'll see!
