cheers :drinks:
my name is justin im from indiana!
just aquired a 1985 fj1100 in decent condition with 15,xxx hard miles
the original owner/hack that had it before really lacked on maintenence which is why i snatched it up for 1,000
it was a snap deal and someone had borrowed my truck for the weekend so i had to make a 35 mile trip back home on the fj... my butt was puckered the whole way "please don't break down, please don't..." whew home safe. GLAD to know that i have a very capable wise community that i can rely on. cheers :good2:
Right on, get your bike in shape and you wont ever need to worry about it again, Lots of super high mile bikes here..
You going to the GP??

I haven't talked to him for a couple of weeks, but I can't see Tim missing a GP that close to home.

Yeah Baby! I've seen FJ motored hillclimbers, but that's gonna be a bitchin' FJ downhiller. Swap in some 29's and you're all set. Unless you were intending to replace the motor, in which case keep up the hard work.

Mmm, tasty. Keep the pics coming, it's like a back alley FJ peep show.
