Posted June 14, 20159 yr Just to say I have sold the FJ, met a nice guy while I was down at the FJ owners club who said he was interested and lo and behold turned up today and bought it. I shall really miss my old tank , got my asking price and so looking for something else now. A 125 or 250 2T would do nicely just for a bit of a project so if you hear of anything that might suit give me a shout, don't mind even if it's a basket case as I have plenty of time to fettle with oily bit's.
June 14, 20159 yr Moderator Just to say I have sold the FJ..... ......so looking for something else now. A 125 or 250 2T.......
June 14, 20159 yr Author Yeah DT, figured with all of the 2T wallas on here I might get to finally play with the rest of the "in crowd" plus I haven't had a 2T for near on 45 years, my last was a Fanny B I think. Similar to this one.
June 15, 20159 yr Moderator maybe get on the 2stroke club, they are a great buch and can put feelers out for a suitable donor bike. now there's a big gap left from the departed FJ, you need to fill it quickly or something else comes in its place.
June 15, 20159 yr Buy another FJ? I'd normally be somewhat offensive and highly discourteous toward you... but you upgraded to an FJR, which doesn't count as treachery, heh heh!!
June 15, 20159 yr but you upgraded to an FJR, which doesn't count as treachery, heh heh!! ...................... only just
June 16, 20159 yr ...................... only just The only big difference is you now get your bike serviced on the right hand side of the Club workshop with Ernie instead of the left side with Doc Hacker...
June 21, 20159 yr Author Well bike went this morning (Sunday) really shall miss the tank. still now got some money to buy another one !! Wonder what will be next? Seen a TDM that someone wants to sell so that might suit also my neighbour has a 1933 DKW that is in bit's in his garage.
June 21, 20159 yr Author No, but been told you have to remove the rear suspension to get the battery out, who the f**k thought that was a good idea?
June 21, 20159 yr I had a 1995 TDM..didn`t have to remove suspension..but tank had to come off to get to battery. Still not a good idea.
