Hi Everyone,

I bought a non running fj1100 a few months ago and due to wanting to ride it now, I sent it to a couple of backyard mechanics and they got it close to roadworthy condition for me.

A few issues that I need expert help on however!

I call it the beast....ive taken it up and down the street and its a great bike.

It would be awesome to find some locals to go on a ride with.

Cheers

Tony

 :hi: Welcome aboard Tony. Lots of info right in your neighbourhood. Just set a time for that coffee along with a time & date that suits melbourneons. (hint, not too early and get a venue that`s cheap!)  :pardon:

Haha, thanks for tip! Unfortunately nothing is cheap in Melbourne!
The contributors on this forum are so helpful already, I've had some good advice which I think would be wise to follow!

Welcome to the Group Tony (another one!) Enjoy you FJ (looks like you got the best model ever - not that i am biased of course). Some of the guys on here have forgotten more than we will ever know about the FJ, and are very patient with us noobs.

Pretty much every question you can think of has already been asked, so check the files. And beware of "Moditis". It is an extreamly infectious and costly disease, but can be a lot of fun too.

There are quite a few FJers down your end of the world, and we have an FJ rally coming up in March down in Victoria (see down under topics for more info) Hope to catch you around the traps.

Welcome Tony, if you've got any queries about the FJ just ask, there are some very knowledgeable people on here with a couple of them in fact down your way. Have a look at this link and add yourself to the map.

G'day,

Welcome to the group, heaps of really helpful blokes on the forum.  It looks like you have one of the early ones, lots of good tips here on taking care of some of the "foibles"

Good to hear it is almost on the road.

Cheers, Gareth
