If he doesn't have it I have an 87 upper. Some damage under the rear of the left side ( trying to remember) scoop area. Can be repaired with not much effort. Will sell cheap....trying to clear parts out at this point in life.

Modifications / Re: R1 rear end conversion!

Quote from: Russfjr1 on October 14, 2016, 03:22:11 PMQuestion to others who have done this conversion, when doing the rear suspension linkages how far out of line were yours? frame and shock is a given to be good but the swing arm suspension mounting point is out (to be somewhat expected).  However it is only off by 6mm is this the norm? I thought it would be more!  The swing arm being used is a R1 big bang.  Thanks  Russ

The swing arm from the r1 2003 (belived) is 50 mm longer, and 10mm wider were it meets the frame, the needle bearings is resess is deep so you can just press it in when you have shaved off 5mm on both sides, should fit perfectly, in the frame at least..

Hello forum.

Had my Fj1200 3cv from 88 for about three years. Trying to get my drivers license this saturday.

And have been fixing it along the way.
And I believe some problem would been easier if I foind this forum earlier.

Thanks FJMonkey, I searched around and found some threads. People talk about the rope trick, another used compressed air. Basically for me I've never done any engine work like that so I would really need a sequenced photo instruction or youtube video....but don't plan to tackle that now so not needed asap or anything. Thanks for you help and sorry to hijack the thread from our new member Tomek!
