Well .. what have we been doing? Aaugh now let me think. Ooh yes, we have bought another 2 FJ's to help with the cafe racer project.


After pulling apart the engine of FJ1100 (no 1) and discovering that we had a cracked (but welded back) engine block, a chipped piston crown (sorry that was me getting a bit brutal) and no special tools to get the clutch plates out, we lost a bit of interest in the project ... until.


Peter saw two FJ1200's for sale on ebay for $2,000. We checked them out and before we knew it we had bought both bikes for $1,100. Actually one of the FJ's cost $1,000 (No 2) because it was in running order and easily ready for registration and the other was a "barn job" that had been stored out on a farm at Laidley for the last 2 years. It (No 3) cost us $100.
