Welcome all

This blog will record the trials and tribulations of three people who decide to turn a clapped out Yamaha FJ1100 motorbike into a cafe racer.

Here we go again ...

It's the beginning of a new year and, once again, a time for new year resolutions. This year it's a case of FJ2day or alternatively, FJnoway. I'm opting for FJ2day but we'll see what the rest of the project team want to do.

But really, does it need to be a group to move forward? If one of us wants to continue with the project then that's enough. So there .... the project is still on. Now where do I start? Maybe I should say "Where do I recommence?"

2013 saw the whole back of the bike being "trimmed down". The seat especially; it was re-carved into a narrow one -seater with the customary cafe racer hump at the back of it.

The drop bars were also modified, bringing them closer into the bike.No photos to show progress but they will come.
