Urx, are those the front turn signal lenses you got from me? If so, how are you liking them? The set I've had on my '89 are holding up well since I put them on, I think it was in 2019 or 2020.

Yep they have remained attached and work just fine 8-) thank you for making....

Great! I'll take the clear lenses....Sending you a PM now...

I have a White '89 and those clear lenses will look soooo much better than those orange oem lenses.

Thanks George!

Pat, I think I have a set ready for use in MI. I'll be there next month and will look for them.

Hi George,

I am on the band wagon with Pat. I would like to get on the list for a clear set of 89/90 clear lenses.

Do you know what model bike your front brake calipers are off, they're not standard but can't really see any adapters to fit them at all. Most popular upgrade is Yamaha blue/silver/gold spot calipers.

Maybe the 6-piston calipers from the YZF 750 or FZR 1000. Those calipers have the same mounting bolt spacing etc as the blue/gold spots and the FJ's 4-piston calipers.

That's what I was gonna say. Look like what I had on my 93 yzf750r. Was very light touch. For a lot of stopping power. Of course that was coming from my 87 fzr1000 brakes to those. Was quite a while between those and the 2008 gsxr1000 brakes that I have on all my fjs now. That I think are great.
