Can anyone advise me,does the calipers from the fjr1300 fit 86 fj1200s.thanks :dash1:

No. Fit 89 or later forks or at least the lower fork legs and then they will. Early blue spot or silver spot calipers, not sure about the later models.

no direct aftermarket - other years etc like the blue dots mentioned that will fit directly that I know else I think a lot of us would have them -- like the previous post mentioned - you must change forks --- as a bonus you get a 17in wheel if you do change to 89 or greater which means more tire choices available.

there was a post that had an adapter plate for the 86 to upgrade the calipers -- you might search for that but I don't think it wise to use as it look MM  IMO.   I think it was an ebay listing anyways and probably not available

You might be able to order a set from the UK FJ Owners club.  However, you may find that it is cheaper to have a service shop rebuild your brakes than ordering new calipers.
