Mean bit of gear
Those have been available down here for years
I have a 98 XJR 1200, pod filters, jetted, free flowing pipes, progressive springs and wearing Metzeler 880's, goes well. Can not get near the fuel injected 1300's, they are in a different class.

Say what
Didn't you lot even get the XJR 1200's Those make the 11's look primitive. I know you got FJ 1100's, did you get FJ 1200's ? You poor deprived souls

We got the FJ1100 and 1200. I'm planning to get one as soon as I can sneak in past my wife...

Chocolates and Flowers
Combined with a lot of grovelling might do the trick One thing to check is the gearbox, something like 3/10 down here have been whopped and develop the 2nd / 3rd gear issue. Apart from that, more torque than an 11 ever dreamed of and handle like on rails compared to XS's

I was just looking at that Honda, I think they stole my bike!
They sent a spy over, I've seen them in the bushes.
