Hi all I'm from Kildare in Ireland. I own a 1986 fj 1200 for 15 years which is in need of complete restoration which I hope to be able to start and afford this year coming 2016. I'll post some pics when I get the bike into the shed and figure out how to post pics . Looking forward to using the forum. Love the fj1200!    :good2:

Welcome Bandit, looking forward to seeing progress on your '86 as you bring her back to life. Here you will find nearly all the information you will need to succeed. Happy holidays.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.
