Bump, open to (reasonable) offers.

Time for a Christmas bump

A huge thanks to hppants. The FJR is back together and the suggestion to support it by the rear exhaust brackets is by far the safest and most secure method I have tried. Canadian FJR

Ok, time for specifics.  Do I need to do anything different with the vent on the auxiliary tank?  My vent is simply coming off a nipple at the top of the tank.  My fill cap is flush, not a raised fill neck like yours. Also, what kind of temps did you ride in? Canadian FJR

There have been many threads on fuel cells over the years.  Hard to believe no one tried this long ago. Good on you travel_man, a fresh set of eyes. Canadian FJR

I cut both the front ones off and will run new ones from the inside out. Much easier the next time. on a positive note, all the bearings and bushings look great.  Just plan to clean, re-lube and get it back together. Canadian FJR

Sorry, not the center stand bolts the center stand bracket bolts.  The two front ones that I had to cut off. Canadian FJR

Question: On my other FJR, I drilled my tank.  I kept the aux tank off until the main tank was around a 1/4 full then I flipped the switch and watched the fuel bars climb. If I leave the fuel cell off with this scenario, how will the main tank vent? Canadian FJR

In theory, if the aux tank was mounted higher it should transfer quicker wouldn't it? Your timing is perfect, mine is on the lift and the aux tank is on my winter "to-do" list. Canadian FJR

Any issues if I replace the front two center stand bolts with full thread bolts?  No shoulder on them like the original? Canadian FJR

Half way through getting the center stand removed. Time to cut the front two ******* bolts. Third time doing this job and it still sucks. Canadian FJR

Congrats

Safe travels.  Had the opportunity to meet RiderX at an IB event a few years back. Canadian FJR

How early in March can you ride the Skyline Drive and Blue Ridge Parkway.  I assume those areas get some snow ?? Canadian FJR

Weld it then get this installed.

Just installed my second General Gmax AS-03 Canadian FJR

The black/gold is similar to the 1989 FJ-1200...

That is the prettiest FJR to date. Canadian FJR
