I'm delighted with the FJ other than weight...  maybe Randy should reproduce the frame and subframes in Al or Ti?  Sadly the girl is just portly, but she certainly tries hard to please  :yahoo:

What do you ride?    1991 FJ1200

How many miles on your engine? 133,00 kms

How many miles have you put on your bike? 98,000 kms

How many more miles will you put on your motorcyle? Who knows All of them I suspect.

There are no guarantees.  You get what you get even IF you do take care of it.

Forever?? Well, it was manufactured once, any parts can be made again.  At some point it becomes un-economic to do so for most people.  You get to choose that point.
