Its really a very nice place you have here, so i would like to join you guys here and enjoy my happy time as a proud fj 1100 owner..

Ken. 

We are similar in a few ways: age, # of kids, (although my twins are 11) etc. but in my case, when my '85 FJ died a fiery death, I went TO a GSX-R750!  (actually there was a CBR1000F in the middle there, but I had no love for that bike).

Anyway, you have found a great place for FJ knowledge and fellowship -so much so I still regularly attend here, even though it's been years since I had an FJ.

Welcome here.

Yes...
I seem to be a solitary Swede on the board, while there are all these Ken's dropping in from Norway, one each month or so.  (popcorn)
What are the odds?

Välkommen hit i alla fall. Det finns många års kunskap inbäddad bland dessa medlemmar. Enjoy!
