So, this is not so much a "what did a do to my FJ" as it is a "what have I done for my FJ".  The season's right here in the midwest for selling motorcycles and since getting my FJ a few years ago I haven't been giving the old Radian much attention, on to Craigslist it went.  I was surprised by how much interest I got for an old bike that I'd done some modding to, and even more amazed that the first respondent actually showed up, loved it, and paid the asking price! :good2:

Now I've got some capital freed up for the RPM rear shock as soon as its available (soon I hope) and a set of bushings and seals for the front forks to complement the RPM valves that were installed last year.  Can't wait for the post from Randy announcing the rear shock is ready for purchase. :wacko3:

Here's pics of ol' red, sacrificed for the betterment of the FJ, if anyone's interested.  Everyone loves pictures, right?









Here's to more FJ mods :drinks:

Later,

Nice looking Radian.  You did some tasteful mods.

Sort of a shame to see it go.  Glad it was for the betterment of the FJ.

WOW, that's great to hear that Radians are in demand, my son has a nice 86 he'd like to let go.

Yours looked like a fun ride!

It was most definitely a fun ride, very nimble and pretty quick.  But only comfortable for about and hour or so in the saddle.  I had a great time tearing it down and putting it all back together over the course of a year or so but I just wasn't riding it much anymore since I got the FJ.  Some young kid bought it, I hoping he rides the hell out of it!
