I like the mesh screening attached to the bent back highway peg rack......  you see, that keeps road grime and bugs and other debris off the bike.....  I think its working.

Give it to Pat for week, it'll look like new.  Pat, if you added this to your collection she'd never know you have another FJ.

No thank you John. It's clever how he put the bellows on the forks so they would not show the shiny stanchion tubes.
Looks like he attacked the tank and bodywork with flat black and Henry's mastic. Dunno about that lawn mower muffler.

That poor poor bike.

I had to run out side and calm CanD down........I could hear her bellowing when I opened this photo. We had a good talk and I was able to wipe away a few tears in her eye and cheer her up............ gave her a spa day and a huge hug...AND SWORE TO HER......"NEVER IN A BILLION YEARS !!!!"......... alas, I was able to get her to give me a little smile before I went back inside.....................wow..........obviously the creation of a deranged mind !!!!!  Frankinstien Jr

Amazing how much time and effort went into creating this really messed up vision of biking rebelliousness. Is it some kind of inverse moditus? In cases like these I can't help but remember an Obama quote that went something like this as he talked about terrorism - 'A man is more likely to be remembered for something he builds rather than something he destroys'. Ok so that doesn't explain Hitler or Stalin, but hopefully it'll help you forget about this sad Fj and go give yours an extra hug.

The same Obama that snuffed Bin Laden, hooray for the black guy with balls and brains. I love America.

Just keep telling myself...  'Whatever'...

It is not worth the cycles, not be a long shot.

Good night all,

I'd like to know more about the "Speedo Cable / Camshaft Mod".
How come I can't find this mod in the files section?

It looks like the speedo is mounted on the "crash bar" covered with the Henry's roof mastic.

At least there is a glimpse of a clean XJR behind it...

Not sure how much "balls and brains" it took to sit in the White House surrounded by Secret Service to tell the guys on the ground that it is OK to go ahead a complete the mission they were sent there to do.  The only threat to Obama was possible loss in # of votes.  He didn't do shit!  The only people he has killed is American servicemen by not getting us out of Afghanistan (remember the "Hope and Change"?).

Don't you mean another racist?  After all, if any of us right wing tea party knuckle draggers disagree with any of 0bama's policies, we're racists, right?
