Nice FJ - Anyone see this full belly pan and swing arm before?

Curious if anyone has seen this full length belly pan and swing arm before? Saw this pic on Pinterest appears to be from Germany.

It's a Harris race bike chassis, I believe. They weren't too many made and if/when you find one they are a pretty penny.

Thanks, looks so good I had to ask!

Very nice! What year is that? I like the full lower fairing. I was just in Salt Lake too bad I didn't see this on the road.

86FJNJ,

Image comes from a YouTube video. He says it is a 1986, with the rare Lockhart lower fairing.

Not sure you could still find that lower fairing now.
I believe the custom fairing caused the engine to overheat, but I have no experience with that.
You could probably let in more air, if necessary.
Sure looks good to me.

I like the full length belly pan on the harris bike, I could do without the full side panels and yes I could see how the side panels retain heat, likely ok for fall/spring riding but def not summer. Maybe after I get my bike running I do a winter project and fabricate one myself out of fiberglass and bondo.

Makes checking oil level or adding oil a bit more difficult, and yea, added heat. 

Unlike today's modern bike engines, the engines in our FJ's are beautiful.
