An FJ600 section, maybe?

The 600 is a different animal than the big FJ. More info on it can be found by looking for XJ600, but many newbies don't know that. Would be helpful if they could find a dedicated repository of information, or at leas a basic idea, rather than asking the same questions.

If that section was created, I would volunteer to write up a FAQ on the 600 and stuff related to it that I know.
1993 FJ1200 ABS

1984 FJ600, up on blocks

1986 FJ1200, flaming wreck, repaired and sold
1986 FJ1200, repaired, ridden, sold

I just want to ride my motorcicle

Matt, a belated welcome to you. If you look at recent posts there is a owner's service manual that can be down loaded. While it is down loading hop over to the introduction section and tell us your story on your FJ600. We don't hear much about them.

Found it.

The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Thanks monkey! I actually have hard copies of both the Haynes and Clymer manuals, they've been invaluable since I purchased the bike 2 years ago.

I'll tell my FJ story sometime over the weekend.

Cheers!  :drinks:

Very cool, I am looking forward to your post. I have only seen 1 FJ600 in person. Shortly after that it blew a hole in the case...  :bad:
