Welcome Tree, how long have you owned your FJ?
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Hey George,
Hmmmm, my '88 is not at all as Yamaha intended. Seeing as you having a shortage over the pond pics may upset you somewhat....lol.

I will post when I have time. (and when I'm sure there'll be no cyber crucifixion lol)
As my post signature says......I occupy a dark space on the edge of standard motorcycling ;-0

All the best hombre

Hey Monkey,

I've had this one for around a year but have previously owned an 11 and on other 12.

This one has been a pain in the ass but I'm getting there (well she's going where I want her to).
I'm looking at buying another fj to leave pretty standard. My 3cv is anything but!!

Tree, being a longtime guitarist I take alot of cues from other axe slingers mostly Brits. Jeff Beck, Robin Trower, David Gilmour to site a few... Huge Pink Floyd fan allways have been. Many classics and afew new ones. I'm sure there is alot of unrest over there and Europe...very sorry!!! Post pics Dude pretty open to different and the unusual!!! Bring it on! :drinks: Charley

Hmmmm, my '88 is not at all as Yamaha intended......I occupy a dark space on the edge of standard motorcycling

======================================================

I envision an FJ with a hard-tail, 21" hoop on a girder fork, pea-nut tank and a rider with a "if you can read this my bitch fell off" t-shirt.

There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
