I just picked up an '84 FJ1100 for 400$ CAD. It needs some work. It hasn't run since last year. It turns over but it only backfires and won't start. I first need to clean out the fuel tank and get the plugs cleaned I suppose. It needs new tires and brake pads. The front fork might be leaking because there is an oily residue on the front right rotor. The rest is mostly cosmetic, paint and dent in the tank and missing the lower part of the fairing under the engine. I'll be posting questions soon.
