Hi all,

My name is Dan, I'm from the UK and currently run the FJ1200 UK Facebook page.

I've had a few FJ's over the years - 47 up to now I think...

I'm currently rebuilding/restoring Dave Crowley's "tribute" bike - all the RPM goodies swapped over to a younger, fresher example. Powder coated frame, wheels, lots of polished bits  and all the mods Dave put on his bike before his arm loss....

I've a few keepers of my own, a 1984 1100, 1993 3XW, 1995 3XW, 1988 US SPEC 3CV, and my Project 1314 3CV that's ongoing too.

:good:

Dan,

Welcome, from Utah!  Glad to have you on board. 
We have snow coming here, so not quite riding weather yet.
Been waiting as fast as I can . . .
.
Cheers,
Red

P.S. Life is too short, and health is too valuable, to ride on cheap parade-duty tires.

Hey Dan - You'll find great info here, as well as support.

There are quite a few people I "facebook" with regularly in the UK.

Before that, when I owned a Honda 919m (Hornet 900) I was a member of the UK group for that bike - www.hondahornet.co.uk
- And was quite close more more than a few of those bloaks.

Looking forward to following your build.

And welcome

Welcome in Dan,

I'm also from the UK and on your forum. This is a very useful and helpful site.

I'm hoping to make more use of the group once the pandemic situation has normalised as we were  spending 3-4 months of the year in the USA before it hit-  Would be nice to make it to a rally or two, or just meet up with some of the North East guys on here.
