An FJ has been on the list of bikes I want and this one showed up on the local CL. Really nice shape, 16k miles and needs very little love. A buddy (Jeff)I used to ride with in the late 80's / early 90's had one and I always liked it. I was young and poor back then and my trusty 900F was all I had space and money for. Jeff passed away 10 years ago now and I still miss him, I am hoping he is looking down with a smile.
Apologies for the BotoPhucket water mark but I haven't figured out another way to post pics yet and I'm not going to pay them. |

Beautiful bike, Nick. Looks like a real fun one to ride.
You're growing the stable...meanwhile I'm shrinking mine. 😏 |

It’s a 1991 and I’m ashamed to say it hasn’t moved since I got it home a week ago. I figured building a retaining wall next to my parking pad was not so hard to do. However it turned out to be a massive task and taking my every waking minute. Uggh, I should have written a check. |

Nice addition Nick! I love that color combination, don't think I've seen a blue one. Was it local to you?

Thanks Chris. I like the blue as well although the belly fairing should be blue and silver as well. After market replacement. I’m undecided it I just keep it as is with the light mods it has. All my other bikes I have worked to get exactly stock. I think I might just enjoy this one as it is. It was in Macomb just north of where JR lives so pretty local for me. |

Nick,
Nice! George had a 1990 FZR1000 he regrets selling.
I think I would paint the belly fairing... when convenient
Hope your having a great Summer.
