Wow nice machine, welcome to the group ! Another NW member  :good2:. Check out the rally video's. If you can, think about attending one. This next year will be the 30th anniversary of the FJ. Yet to be determined where, there will probably be a West Coast Rally in the spring time. Other rallies are also held across the country.
Can I ask what windscreen are you using ? I am having a hard time pulling the trigger on one. My bike is a 1990.

Is this the kitkat black from the old list?   With the excellent write ups on the yzf600 front end and rear rim conversions?  And the GSXR rear shock if I remember correctly?

Welcome back!
