Hey guys, I put some pics of my latest rear end conversion mods in our FJ gallery....check them out let me know what you think.....ZX-7, 5 1/2" wheel and caliper, a Michelin 2CT180/55/17.....a kerker pipe with a bigger (quieter) can i graphted in.   Cant see it but also a penske adjustable shock and lastly, new chain and sprockets,18/39. It handles alot better,to say the least. 
89 FJ1200 saphire.blu owned 8-9 years.  By far the most satisfying of them all. Constant tinkering got me the best bike you could ever want.

Simplicity of character is the natural result of profound thought.

That looks great.  What size rear tire did you go with? I'm still on the fence.

A 180/55/17 Michelin fits well....maybe1/2" on either side. The chain can rub the tire ,as mine did, if the sprocket isn't moved out some ...which has to be considered when measuring things up.
