Hey there, my name is Jan, live in Holland and it's nice to have found this site about FJ's.
This is my bike I own now for 6 years.

Welcome Jan, good looking '87, I love the red & white colors. Happy you found us. I see that you have the front and rear upgrades. If the forks are FJ forks I would love to know what fender that is and how it attaches.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Thanks! The front fender is from a RZ500, or the europe version RD500 twostroke, witch I have also.

This is how I fixed the fender to the front end. I used the front fork from a '89 3CV FJ so that I had no longer the anti-dive system.
