I like FJ's - but every one I see advertised on E Bay , usually has a 2nd gear fault - beware!
Have you looked at those luverly new Ural solo classics? Super low , Brembos , leccy start 750cc- looks pretty nice at www.uralmoto.com
(I think!)

I think you'll find that was a problem left over from the "XS" era which bugged some of the earlier model FJs, particularly the 1100s.
Cheap and bulletproof,should finish mine soon !!
Just in time for some serious winter milage :D :D :D

[Friar Tuck]

Erm, doesn't that exhaust look a little saggy?

I'd stick with the Enfield as a second bike personally!

What's the budget then Fayji?

[mr.chaz]

Yep... "saggy exhausts" will do it everytime.

saggy? wtf!

Obviously the penalty clauses aren't stringent enough! You have cash left!

*Note to brother Ewok: Check ALL pockets when collecting!*

Road King? Surely not!! Kawasaki Meanstreaks' the way to go!

Well I have been v satified with my XJR 13, as a second bike that is.

[Friar Tuck]

Prefer a ZRX1200S meself.

[GarrysPhrogg]

Well Garry has the Road King custom and the XJR 1300 and is very satified with both rides.

I'm in a similar position....with a similar budget...
I love mah Buell, its the best bike i have ever had....it really is..
But last night, the bloke i sold mah chop (GSX1100 rigid fighter..) to told me he was gonna sell it, now it will be relatively cheap, n that would leave me a couple of grand to do it up...I'm thinking

bandit 1200 motor...n bandit wheels
Higher bars (possibly 21" apes!!)
Wider slabs...thinkin 180 section tyres back n front!!
lots of goodridge...
possibly N20

satin black paint...

Gonna speak to him tonight...(maybe its destiny....n a bloody good diversion!! fae wimmin!!)

oh well we shall see...

What ever yah decide Fayji i hope yah get summat yah actually want

Later Days All..

Hmm! big differance between an Enfield or an FJ! I`d go for something cheap that I could chop up and not cry too much if I made a hash of things! Second hand Enfield For me! Fj`s are ok for beaming up and down the length and breadth of the country BUT.....They lack a certain somthing that cant be measured in horse power! Thats wot I fink! :o

theres an original fj1100 just up the road from me, also a bright yellow 1200 triumph daytona. both belong to the same guy. both for sale .
