Post by: al_b on September 28, 2009, 10:10:13 AM

Hi,

I'm Al. I live near Glasgow, in Scotland, and have owned a 1991 FJ1200ABS 3XW since October 2008.

I'm a member of the UK FJ Owners club.

Hope to get some good tips and tricks from across the pond!

Al.

Al,

Hello and welcome :greeting:

Is this your group http://www.fjclub.co.uk/page6.php (http://www.fjclub.co.uk/page6.php)

They really have a lot of items for sale to fit the FJ. Some of those Items are hard to find over here in the states.

I am sure you will enjoy this group as well as your UK FJ budies. You might even meet someone near you on this site.

Ride on.

Later, Phil ..... :bye2:

Thanks for the welcome. Yeah, the scenery is stunning, as long as you can put up with the changeable weather!

The photo above is of the "Bealach Na Ba" - Pass of the cattle. It boasts the greatest ascent of any road climb in the UK, rising from Applecross at sea level to 626 metres (2,054 ft). It's stunning!
