Installing the handle grips and throttle cables was a serious challenge.the slack in the throttle hasn't been fine tuned so I took my better half on a quick spin and she was smiling.that has my glowing.feeling loved

No real issues.my bike never had the pull cable installed as it was like that when I bought her.so the install was very different took me a while.the ease of the throttle now has really changed the entire feel of my bike.ive got a whole new bome and its really gratifying as its the fj I remember now as a 17 year old.

This sight need a edit option.


I do believe that once posted, you have 20-30 minutes that you can go back and click on the 'modify' button. Once the time has passed, you can contact one of the moderators and they can make an edit for you.
