Most of the work was done with electric cutting and buffing wheel. Some spots were hard to get to so a little hand work. I also did my forks at the same time.  That was a good day visiting Father Pat.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

I have to say that I like the look of the FJ better with the chin/belly fairing on.
That leads me to my question, I found a lockhart chin fairing on e-bay but it is for an 84.
Would it fit on my 1990?

Might have to fabricate some brackets but it could fit.
