    Hi guys, I'm thinking of buying a FJ1200. Does the timing chain need replaced like a car. And if so what miles does it need to be changed at. Thanks

    HI Thanks The choke is not on a cable, I'd tried both those. If i turn tickover away off its fine, and when I set it so it ticks over ok, when I blip throttle it just revs up. I got a new throttle today so hopefully get it on tomorrow. But now I need a fuse box and starter relay.

    1984 XJ600 Revs UP! I've just got me bike ready for Mot. Its been off the road for a few years. I put a set of reconditioned carbs on it, but when you blip the throttle it revs up to 3-4k and wont come back down. I have to switch it off. Any help / ideas would be appreciated. Thanks Davy

    Hi I just got a set of forks for my 1984 XJ600. One of the air valves is broken. Where could I get a set? I see one on ebay off a suzuki gs1000 would this fit. Thanks
