First time for quite a while that I've been active on here, mainly due to being very busy, work-wise, personal life-wise and riding my FJ (plenty of bike and ride outs over the summer). It's also been a very long time since I've seen my FJ parked up beside another 3CV.

On Thursday night though, I arranged to meet up with a couple of other owners, Graham Beale and Simon Halstead, at a local bike night meet (Long Itch Diner). Simon lives 130 miles away, but was in the area visiting family, it was a great opportunity for us all to have to a cuppa together and "talk FJ"

The three 3CV's in the same colour drew quite a bit of attention. No one really noticed the mods on the bikes though - which I think proved the point that they're what Yamaha themselves should have done to keep the FJ more relevant, for longer.
