Old Beast

[NickB]

Hello chaps, sorry for the lack of attendance since my initial post, I've been locked in the garage working on the bike. More a case of bringing it back from the dead! Can't beat rescuing a bike that would otherwise have gone to the breakers. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement throttle cable for the old Hector. A 1990 FJ1200 with the throttle cable split with a plastic jointing piece under the tank. Can't find one anywhere, I need the closing cable from the joint piece to the carb. Cheers

Good looking for a beast. I got a spare throttle cable set from RPM so Rick is spot on for a good source. Randy and Robert are great with OEM parts, After Market parts, Custom FJ parts, service is top notch.

Cheers for the replies. I'll check the rpm dudes out. The bike is getting there. (looks good from a distance!) It's only had 2previous owners and had the oil and filter changed every 3000 miles! Got 3 weeks to go before my Scotland trip. Currently rebuilding the forks. Seals were shot and a spring was snapped! Got some Hyperpro ones. Off in the garage now........... I live there! Thanks again

Cheers chaps, just spent 3 hours rebuilding the forks. New Hyperpro fork springs, oil and seals. One of the original springs was broken! Like night and day now
