Picked up an FJ1100 1985 on Craigslist. 26K miles and rides well. I've been doing a lot of reading on this site and figured I'd go ahead a join. Look forward to learning for you folks.

That's a nice paint scheme.  Looks like the bike was well cared for.  Welcome.

Welcome Bigcat... This is a great site, with members who have a wealth of knowledge. Great place to learn, just have to watch out, or you will find yourself making a bunch of mods. Nice bike by the way.
Still working on getting the ol girl back together. Front masters have been swapped, carbs changed, got it running.  Need some air pods, figure out the turn signals, and then worry about the cosmetic situation
