I feel like an addict, and am trying to decide if this is a healthy safe place.

Since I'm not a native speaker I would need a clarification on all the choices in order not to click something bad.  :bomb: :biggrin:

This is a safe place. Every mod we do to our bikes makes them better, safer bikes.

Anyway that's what I tell my wife....(and it's worked so far)
She says, "I see you've been spending money again on that damn motorcycle...."
I reply, "Yes dear, it's to make the bike safer and safety is important...Don't you agree?"

After all, what can she say to that?
1) Free Owners Manual download: https://tinyurl.com/fmsz7hk9
2) Don't store your FJ with E10 fuel https://tinyurl.com/3cjrfct5
3) Replace your old stock rubber brake lines.
4) Important items for the '84-87 FJ's:

The worst part about the telling the Wife anything about the dollars $$$  that you have spent on your Bike  ,,,,Is that when the time comes for her to sell your Bike "because you are no longer around",,, She will sell it for what you have told her it has cost ,,,,,  which would be  about 1/4 of  what it really did cost,,,,, ""Bugger""

It's a one-way ticket to rock bottom...
But that rock bottom gives way to such highs. Especially when the kookaloo is working.

What's all this crap about "telling the wife"?!?!
I just get stuff. With a wee bit of planning, it'll usually show up on days I'm home, and I get to take it straight to the garage. No eyes on it, no questions asked. If something does show up while I'm away? Well, own up to it: "Oh, those are used brake parts off EvilBay®, I'll be able to stop faster. (And not hit another one of those G'damned Chrysler minivans...)"

See? Easy-peasey.    :pardon:
