Hi new to this forum so just saying Hi.  I have a FJ ABS but the abs is history as it has an exup usd front end with 6 pot calipers and a R1 big bang rear. Not on the road as yet it's still work in progress but it should be done for summer  :yahoo:

Welcome Russ ! Post some pictures of your projec when you get a chance sounds like you have done a fair amount of work on the FJ. Where is Shrewsbury Shropshire  ?  Did you pick the FJ up as a project or have you owned it for a while and decided to upgrade it ?

Hi got the FJ not so long ago with the modifications in mind to get done before this summer, have always liked the FJ ever since seeing the FJ1100 at the TT 1986  two of them side his and hers. Just knew I had to have one, now can't be without one :good2:

Well Shrewsbury is about 40 odd miles away from Birmingham in the UK and about 18 miles off the welsh border, some of the roads in Wales going to the coast make for some nice days out.
