Title: Rexsk8er Intro!!
Post by: rexsk8er on June 14, 2012, 06:23:09 PM
Hey everyone! I guess I haven't got around to introduce myself, this site is so full of good information I spend all my time reading!  :rofl2:

Anyway, I'm Sean. I've been working on motorcycle since I can remember. Honestly I have pics of me in diapers riding around on 3 wheelers back when the fj was a brand new machine HAHA. But in any case, I'm still at it I work at a local motorcycle shop and fix anything that comes in the door.

So, anyway I figured I'd introduce myself and post a couple of pics. Still not on the road yet, I have to fix the blown fork seals before I start riding on a regular basis.

My build

Thanks to everyone who makes this forum possible. There's not much info out there on these old bikes and this resource brings it all together.

Haa I read the KOokalooO! story thats a good one!


Anyway I'm from Panama City FL. originally and lived in Ga for 10 years but I ended up in South Texas, Corpus Christi to be exact. I'll edit my profile ;-)


There's a few badass FJ's here one fellow has a nice Fj with a I believe Mr Turbo kit on it. Pretty clean, may even be a member here. Next time hes around the shop I'll mention the board.

Welcome Sean, you have one of the sportier years, upgrade your wheels and suspension and brakes next. I recently completed my front end and WOW what a new feel my 86' has. Post your progress, we love to see results on these machines.
