Looks like a good deal to me ! Check out those red and white lower fairings on the shelf..... If I wasn't working on mine I would think about going down and getting those.

Craaaappp!! Ok, my garage is stuffed, (see list), but somebody here should take this on as a worthy, (and cheap!), winter project.
So how about it, all you SoCal guys?!?  :greeting:

Well, I'm not far. But my plate is full and I don't even have a car with a trailer hitch anymore.

I can provide the vehicle and tow hitch if you need....

link is gone, what was it?!?!

Not everyone understands what a completely rational process this maintenance of a motorcycle is. They think it's some kind of a knack or some kind of affinity for machines in operation. They are right, but the knack is almost purely a process of reason.

When that happens in Craigslist it usually means it was sold. Who ever got it,  got a pretty good deal. It was 2 FJ's plus lots of parts and I don't recall the exact price but it was low.

It was 2 84 FJ1100`s for $1000. Plus lots of parts. Picked them up Sunday. Looks like they spent some time unloved.  After three hours of tinkering I managed to get the red and silver one running, she`s not a happy camper, but it`s a start.

Outstanding  :good2:... Those lowers that were on the shelf are hard to come by... Keep us posted. Glad they ended up with a forum member.  :drinks:
And I notice this is your first post, welcome to the group. Keep on posting  :hi:

Do you want them? they are not in the best of shape, but if you have the skill they could be fixed. I don`t plan on using them.

Yes I am new here, also new to owning an FJ.
