This month's issue of Rider magazine has the FJ on the back page "Retrospective" feature.  Time to get the "historic" plate.

Pat should send in a photo of his '84 and ask them what they think of his 'old' bike.

When i bought my '86 1200  last week it came with the 3 motorcyle mags from 1986 that had tested the fj against the fz 750, GSXr1000 and 750, Ninja 900 and 1000, Honda VFR etc. but what was most fun was seeing the old cigarette ads and seeing the ads with the rz350 and 500's in them.

Thanks.  Didn't get around to scanning it.  Shame they didn't use one of the good looking 84-87 year models.   :diablo:

Why, when they already had an example of the 'best of the breed' ?        :bomb:    :biggrin:

I had just come home from my second ride of the year on my '89. I was very pleased to see our bike in the Retrospective. Too bad it's not Midnight Blue.
