Hi out there, from UT.

[kensea]

My name is Ken and I have had an 1985 FJ 1100 from the day she was taken out of its crate. It is outstanding to find this site. There seems to be a lot of knowledge and enthusiasm for the "older" bikes as well as new. She is ridden almost every week day as my commuter vehicle in the temperate months.
I will try to remember the mods I have done over the years; PS fork springs, PS rear spring on stock shock, grease zerk in swing arm cross piece, Supertrapp 4-1 SS exhaust system (with a little blob/piece welded on the frame to retain the centerstand), jetted carbs, Re-degreed cams at 106, Aircraft oil cooler (it was a kit), KN air filter,5 line SS front brake lines, Avon radial tyres, Mobil 1 M/Cycle oil.
Yeah, I love the old bike. She treats me well and I try to return the favor.
Is there a forum as good as this one for old FZ's on the ether that anyone would know about? I love that one almost as much as the FJ.
The third bike is for weekends, I always wanted something tempermental and Italian. Wonderful, but not a comfy workhorse like the Yamahas.
Cheers.

Howdy!  I'm a newbie to this site as well.  Looks to be a great source for keeping our classics in good shape.  Cheers!

Ken,

Hello and Welcome.

That is great that you have held on to your bike for so long.  I don't know about  any FZ groups, but there are some good FZR group.

Later, Phil

If you like the older ones that just means you're not color blind. Not that there's anything wrong with that
