FJ 1200

[ted embree]

Had an FJ1200 and had to have an FJR1300. So I sold the FJ ,bought an FJR and haven't looked back. Might get a different seat.

I am in Fredericton NB.  A number of FJR owners in NS and NB.  What model year is your bike and when did you get it?  I have a 2011 which I bought on a fly-and-ride to BC a couple of years ago.  Before that, I had a 2007 that I put almost 300,000 km on before I sold it. (Still worked great)

Hope to see you on the road sometime...

Lots of us came down that same road.

Welcome to the forum.  I'm only bit up the road from you (Trenton).  Have to meet in Tata for a coffee when the roads clear.

Had a 1990 FJ-1200, then moved to a 2003 FJR-1300.  Currently racking up kms on my 2018.

Yep, still have my '87.  Haven't run it in a while, need to clean the carbs.

I’ll chime in, had a 92 and an 89. Have ‘almost’ bought another over the years, one test ride  showed me I wasn’t willing to recreate the old love of my life.

Enjoy your new ride, the FJR is a great bike.

I switched from FJ1200 to FJR1300 to protect my license and my health....[didn't help much] .... getting older has...

Boyitgobob, did we share a kabin at the FJ Rally in Boone about 20 years ago?

 

[boyitgobob]

No we didn’t, that would have likely been Dean, Henry or Carey. I usually tented at Boone and Tellico.

 I did share/give you a pair of Hearos at the first Indy GP. Might have saved you some hearing loss that day. Or a side note, I came across a Hoffman’s Bananas patch in a desk drawer a while back.  😊  Need to see if I still have it, somebody might want it.

Loved my FJ1100, but the FJR is a more capable scoot

Ah, okay. 

Funny, I still use Hearos to this day.  Thanks!!!!  Never ride without them.

I still have my Hoffman's Bananas patch.  Its on my cabinet door over my workbench in the garage.  I'm sure someone will want it.
