Hello All!!!!

I just recently picked up an 1990 FJ1200 from someone I believe is a member here, he talked highly of you all and recommended the FJ rally.

I look forward to learning, sharing, and meeting you all!

I'm from the Napa Valley of California and am an active member of BARF (BayAreaRidersForum).

Ride safe ya'll and I'll share pics as soon as I take some.

Sorry to see Henry have to part with the FJ, but I am glad you got it and are excited to have it.

We will be up in Petaluma in June for the annual WCR, check out the rally page.

Welcome ! You probably got a good FJ if it was from an active member here! They are a fun all around bike. I have a 1990 and enjoy it a lot. Also planning to attend the rally in Petaluma this spring if the weather is good. It will be the first motorcycle rally that I have ever attended in a lifetime of riding. Hope to see you there to offset the vast sea of red and white ones :)..

Does anyone have a link for the Petaluma Rally?

I'm most certainly in since it's right around the corner but I went to the link at the top of the page and it took me to 2011 rally info?

Noob, I know :dash2:


Edit: found it  :wacko1:

I know that crazy redneck quite well. Actually purchased his Saddlebags off his FJ last year.

Welcome koi, use the search function above, search for subject "roll call" and user "fjmonkey". The rally site is Over due for an update.

And welcome, you think Henry will join us this rally? It was good to see him last year.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Here is the link to the West Coast Rally board on this forum:

http://www.fjowners.com/index.php?board=30.0

Every rally has a master board on this website.  I'm actually trying to phase out the FJrally.com website because it is dated and people don't take the time to post up pictures there anymore anyway.  (it is time consuming - you have to post them up one by one with captions etc.  I understand.)  I'm just stuck paying for it until I can figure out a way to get all of those photos over here easily....I can't let those pictures/memories go away...

I just don't have the time to take care of consolidating everything right now.  I hope to get to it soon.  Long story short - this website is now used for the planning and details of FJ Rallies.

Hey Doug, good to hear that your tickets are secure. If you need a room during that week let me know, you are welcome to visit and have cold one with the wife and I. Don't forget to bring as much Vegemite as you can. I am gonna hit up Klavdy as well to bring a full carry-on.
