In 1983 I bought a Suzuki gs 750e,,,,,then the next model year yamaha came out with the fj 1100 and I fell in love with it.Sold my Suzuki to get married but vowed to get an fj one day.Got married had 2 kids,got divorced and my next spouse just gave me the green light to buy an fj.
I found an85 fj1100 with 50,000klm and it's a bit rough but it's a project.I know a very good bike painter so I'm hoping to keep it close to original as I can.
My bike should be good to go next spring.
I enjoy this forum and I've made 2 contacts for parts so far.
I'm located in Niagara region in Ontario.
Thanks Rob
Welcome Rob. Glad you got a FJ. They are a very repairable bike. Post some pictures someday.
