Hi Sam, Welcome, set your sights high, go for a FJ-1200 Not toooooo sure on the wisdom bit on here
-
Hi, Can't help you with the 400 but am a longstanding client of yours so welcome.

Coming from and having only had Yamaha's 'ancient' offerings the FJ still feels like a proper drivers bike. Just more of it and grunt that makes your eyes water. Not an over electrickerized machine (which I've got with the Jeep Grand and that's given me plenty of head aches already, thank you very much)

I have one too :-( Wanted one for the last 15 years until the right one came along in October last year. Daily driver, look forward to get going in the morning and knock off time can't come fast enough. As voiced by my co-owners above, go for it !!! You will not regret it.

Thanks gents. With the lengthening days it will be a job for when I really feel like it me thinks. Clock is in KM so half the time I dunno how fast I'm going anyway :-) -
Chaps, Duff bulb in the speedo. Is this a fairing off jobbie ? Not looking forward to that :-(

To save any future embarrassment : Anders verwachten een belasting van vriendelijke fietsers te zijn ... goed, fietsers! Translated back without goooooogle : Otherwise we expect to tax you for being kind cyclists ...... good cyclists ! What ever TF that means

The FJ has been stuck in the garage for what now ...... 2 months ????? Storms, more rain than Noah has ever seen, shit & rubble on the roads, potholes opening up like sink holes and don't get me started on crap car drivers with head lights pointing at the moon. Good old Jeep WK 3.0 CRD 4x4 here ........ fuck'em. When is it going to stop

I got 2. Had a 120 bar Kaercher then picked up a 140 bar one at a farm machinery auction for 14 quid. Brilliant for the patio and stuff. Would not put them near my bike. Nothing a soapy wash and a hose pipe cant cure. btw ever washed your car with a PW without soap. It dont work.

Name: Yamaha FJ1200 (1989) Date Added: 05 December 2013 - 08:33 PM Owner: DutchFJ1200 Short Description: Found this one in Brussels. Had an offer I couldn't refuse on the XT-250 and finally after 15 years or so I had opprtunity & finances to go for it. Bought unseen and untested from ebay and its proven to be a minter. This could have gone soooo wrong on many levels. View Vehicle
