My name is Tom-vidar Salangli and I am from the north of Norway, from the city Tromsoe.

I am new to this site and I am looking forward to find answers to some questions about my new bought FJ 1100 - 85 mod.
Actually I bought myself two of these :)
One is meant to give life to the other one...and when I'm done with the touring type...I have an idea of customizing the other one to a "street-fighter look"

Welcome Tom :hi: you are in the right place to get some great advice and assistance getting both your bikes the way you want them. I believe there are some other members in Norway you might meet up with for a ride.

Welcome Tom, I guess we don't need to warn you of the affliction we call Moditus, you already have it. Use the search function first, then ask questions if you can't find what you are looking for, we will help you out. And if you are modifying and customizing, take pictures, we love pictures....  :drinks:
