Ok thank you Monkey for the how too, still couldn't do from photobucket?? But its working from flicker. Here's a few pics of my 84 Fj prior to mods. Looks better in pics than actual. But a solid rider and a good base project bike. Had the gsxr and fzr wheels sand blasted and powder coated at a local shop for $80.00. The forks I polished started with 320 grit and ended with 2000 grit. Then used blue magic metal polisher with a pad on the drill. She's coming along still a ways to go.

Happy to help, good looking ride...
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

'89 Stormy Blue - Suits my Dark Side

Great looking starting platform. You will enjoy the difference in how the bike handles with the 17" wheels and wider rubber.

I'm not the fastest FJ rider, I am 'half-fast', the fastest slow guy....
