Hi Guys
I am new to these forums but not to the FJ1200 had one since I was 21 I am now 47 shit I am getting old lol so is my baby and with age comes exhaust rot well 25 years out of original exhaust cans is not too bad I guess. I have been looking for replacements for some months now found some really nice ones, found some very expensive ones, also found some on eBay at a more reasonable price.
So here is my question will xjr 1200/1300 exhaust cans fit the FJ1200 or are they completely different inside and out.
Any help or suggestions are welcome

Thanks
Norm

Yes Norm, the cans are pretty similar..... just depends on what you mean by "fit". You will have to fabricate brackets for the can mounting tabs to the original mounts, other than that though they should be pretty straight forward. Klavdy had a set on one of his FJs some time back.

FJZ1 1200 - It'll do me just fine.
