Modifications / Does the FJ1200 rear sprocket ...
Last post by bikerjimbob - March 27, 2025, 05:50:57 PM
Hi All,

Nearly got everything I need for the rear wheel YZF600R conversion, wheel, disc, sprocket carrier, caliper  perch, spacers. need to get the cush rubbers (I guess the 1200 one's wont fit?) will the original fj1200 sprocket fit? as all the bits are in the post still, I cant check until they arrive but if anyone know it means I can order one now if needed.
Thanks in advance
Jim

Parts Available and/or For Sale / Continental rear tire
Last post by Mike Ramos - March 27, 2025, 05:33:38 PM
Hello everyone,

If anyone is running Continentals, I have a new RA4 180/55-17 for the asking.

However, it's the GT model (it was installed before I noticed the GT rating, thus not returnable).

I always ran Michelin until balance issues, so switched to the RA3 for two sets & this Version 4 is quite good. Both the 3 & 4 perform well in inclement weather & all around performance.

Ride safe.

Maintenance / Re: Plastex to fix Front Fende...
Last post by Sparky84 - March 27, 2025, 05:16:20 PM
Ok, few blemishes but congratulations it's a tab, just hope they are actually strong enough where they join.i was only able to use strands of fibreglass, could get a full piece in.
Main things with those tabs are they get squashed, but now I use loctite and just nip them up firm.

Few photos below, making mood from new fender, mold itself, fender with no tabs and now has tabs.
Next will be how long they last.

Quote from: giantkiller on March 26, 2025, 04:45:58 PMMost of my pictures are 2mb or less. I just can't get them here even down loading to my gallery. Like I said I'm just a computer idiot.
Possibly your new phone takes too good a photo, too large in size , but you did say they were only 2mB. I had to shrink the bike photo, but just by cropping it and the file size went down.

I thought it was tricky too, but on the phone just below text box there is a preview button, click that and it brings up the click or drag, I just click/touch that
And then the option to pick photos from your photo library pops up.
Pick one and then add, it came up to large a size, so I cropped it.

Oh and then post.

I also bought an original add for the supertrapp super light ss system that had an 86fj with it on. For $14 that came up when I was searching. Will frame it and put it on the wall over my workbench. Lol

I just purchased a brand new supertrapp super light ss system. Included muffler for 86 and a muffler for 89-90. Included all hardware. end caps and disc's. For both mufflers
Off fleebay. For $700 delivered. He had them listed last year for $850+$69 shipping. I had no money at the time. It was no longer listed so I messaged him asking if he still had it. He said yes. I offered him $700 shipped. He said yes. And resisted it for that. I bought it a minute later. So if something isn't listed anymore just ask about it. You might get lucky.

Modifications / Re: 1989 rear shock.

Thanks Pat I think the honda shock is slightly longer. I would be putting it on one of the 1100s. And putting the ohlins on the 1350r. So would probably be great.

I get a blank page.

Hang in there, I'll let you know when it's fixed...

RPM Robert is aware.

Thanks Pat. It's been driving me crazy. As you can see.
