92 fj1200 resto mod

Well... I've added bike no 18 to my collection...What's wrong with me?
I just couldn't pass this one up. 7400 miles brand new flatslides, brand new Vance n Hines exhaust, pods, gsxr wheel, powder coated just about everything replaced every bearing, all the rubber grommets, everything. I asked him why he replaced the steering stem bearings when the bike only had 7400 miles on it. He looked at me like that's a dumb question. And said "Because that's what you do!"
The only thing I could say bad about the bike is the frame looked like it had sat with water in all the lower spots rust started in the low spots.
He said he thinks the previous owner being in California only had a carport and not a garage.
And the swingarm has marks that look like it was from tiedowns.
He has 5 other bikes he's working on in various stages. And 2024 goldwing? (I'm not into touring bikes or Hondas or new bikes) for his girlfriend so she would ride on the back with him.
He had a 97 vmax sitting next to the fj with inverted forks, custom triples, custom wheels, wider back tire,on and on. That wasn't finished yet. But looked better than a bike that just rolled off the assembly line. Wow.

Wow I just physically counted. My bikes I only have 16. But 9 of them are fjs. 2 84s, 4 86s, 1 87, 1 89 and now 1 92. 1 84, 1 86, and the 87 are just complete bikes in parts.

 I don't feel so bad since it's only 16

I feel better now as a sort of accomplice in this transaction!

Yes thanks for posting it. The other thread you posted disappeared.

Yes it did....when a for sale post links a eBay or Craig's list link as the for sale info, we leave the post up...until the eBay or Craig's list link is deleted....
Then the post on this forum is automatically deleted.....

However is the seller posts here with all the info, we leave the for sale up until the seller tells us it's sold... then we keep the post but mark it as "sold"
