jeff_s Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Howdy friends, I've been lusting over that triple since riding a friends FZ and FJ - and I've finally acquired one of my own! A 2015 FJ that was tastefully updated with luggage, cruise, and other handy farkles. I've been reading up here since buying the bike last Friday, and I've already learned alot... --Jeff 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff_s Posted May 20, 2019 Author Share Posted May 20, 2019 Looks like I can't post in the classifieds. I'm interested in buying a second-hand rear seat if anyone has one laying around. I'm going to bolt a pelican case (or similar) to it, so it can be torn, ugly, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new1709rider Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I have one in pristine condition $40 plus shipping and it's yours. PM if interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff_s Posted May 21, 2019 Author Share Posted May 21, 2019 Thanks, New1709rider! I'll post up a photo of my rear-seat-to-luggage-mount conversion once it's done... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporting Member texscottyd Posted May 21, 2019 Supporting Member Share Posted May 21, 2019 Welcome @jeff_s and congratulations on the new FJ. They’re great bikes, and I’m sure you will love it. I’m over in Houston (just down the road in Texas speak) and also a UT graduate... I’ll spare you the ‘Austin just isn’t the same anymore’ speech. What is the same is the great riding in your area. The FJ should be a perfect play bike out in the hills. Enjoy! -Scott 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" I used to ride the Hill Country a lot when I lived in FTW from 91-14 but moved back to Knoxville (I lived here from 68-91) and this is motorcycle mecca. Get my FJ next week and looking forward to riding it around TN, VA, NC, SC and GA (even AL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spent a fair bit of time in Austin when I lived in FTW. It's a cool city but way too expensive to live there these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
