Bootxjr

Hello,
Name is Bootxjr, first owned an FJ1200 back in 88 until someone decided they liked it too much to pay me for it. The liking for the FJ didnt go away but i spent the next years riding sports bikes the odd mobile scrap heap and for the last 10 years an XJR1300.
Anyway ive now stumped up a very little money for an 84 FJ1100 which needs some love as well as dogs.
I will probably make a fool of myself asking for help with the rough road ahead.
Wish me luck...

Good luck on the purchase and project.  :good2:

Best of luck Bootxjr, once you get the issues sorted out you will love the reliable and serious grunt of your 1100. Plus, the Red and White/Silver goes faster and looks much better than the other years...  :bomb:
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Delusional seems like the word of the day. But I am holding up just fine in Red and White.
