I looking for a exemple of paints fj for my inspiration.
If you have a connection, i am very interested.

thank you all

A year or so back I spent a lot of time looking at FJ paint schemes. There are a lot of custom paint jobs out there but I couldn't find anything I thought looked good other than the original one. You could change the colours but I reckon Yamaha got the pattern right.

The problem with most of the paint jobs that look good on other bikes is the gap between the upper and lower fairing on the FJ.

The colour's don't need to be original but I reckon the pattern does. This is unless you go for a single colour all over.

I am painting my '92 in early model colours (Black, red and silver)

I was wanting to congratulate you on such a fine effort in your own tongue but I discovered all the superlatives I would have chosen in English are of French origin and therefore spelt the same. Anyway, well done!

I have seen another similar tool here recently that I know works very well.



I found the plastic tubing can very quickly collapse on itself and kink at the carby end from engine heat. I slipped these larger pieces of tubing (pictured) over them to prevent this.
Do you have restrictors in line to dampen the fluid response?  They also let you rev the motor without risk of the fluid being sucked into it.

What is the blue tube for?

What are the markings on your garage floor for?

Is that a car engine sitting on the floor and if so what is it from?

Hello,

Excuse me, but I will use the google translator because I have much to say, it will take too much time with the dictionary :yes:

Well, I upgraded the system by a base fluid distribution in copper







I also incorporated with homemade sprinkler heads syringe needles to tranquilize fluids as





it works nickel, carburetors are set


For the red lines on the ground, it's just the edges of the pit for working on cars it is convenient.
Then the engine on the ground at the bottom, it is completely empty, it was the engine of AX 1.4 Diesel 22 years, because with two engine I made one.
here it when finished
