Hello all, I joined a couple weeks ago in anticipation of picking up an '89 FJ1200 which I did this past weekend.
White/Champagne, just over 31,000 miles, not without it's cosmetic flaws but all in all pretty good shape for a 35yo bike. No major plans for it right now but will end up getting a throttle lock of some sort (I have a cramp buster and Go-cruise already), maybe some shorter dogbones to raise it up a little and that's about it for now. Pretty happy so far with it as is. Anyway, just thought I would say hey.

I don't think I'm going to get to serious with mods. I've always liked things mostly stock for the most part. I'll check out the files sections to see what's there and what I can get out of them Thanks for the welcome.
