    Hi everybody.

    I'm from north of France and I'm owner of a 1992 900XJ. I'm a member of the 900xj.com forum and one of our friends sent us the link of your own forum.

    Anyone of you would be welcome on our forum in return ;)

    My name is Aurélien (unprononcable for a normal english speaking !!! ;) ) and I'm 38 years old.

    Here is my horse :

    Welcome to the site.

    It probably seems everyday for you, but I would love to tour France's country roads. Show us more scenic pictures of France and your XJ together.

    Welcome brother! You'll find these guys a lot friendlier than on some some of those British sites! :wink:

    Ah, a 1992 model (sans belly pan fairing) they stopped sending us the xj 9's in 1987 here but they came back again in 1994?

    wow !! 8O what a welcome !! :D Thanks a lot.

    In France, the 900xj was a real succes and was commercialized during 12 years from 1983 to 1994. The types are different than in the US.

    31A in 83 and 84
    58L from 85 to 92
    4BB to the end of importation

    Mine gets a personal painting. The exhaust system is a simple 4 in 2 without junction below the bike. I prefer. It's more solid and less expansive. It's a choice not to have a belly pan. I like the silouhette of the exhaust system.

    My bike totalize 191 000 km (119400 (miles) :) I use it every day. I spent my last holidays in Spain (7200 km ;) ) and I made two tours of France with it.


    I live near Amiens between Lille and Paris

    That's not easy. We do have the same problem with your site ;). Google translation tools are easy to use but sometime, translations are funny :D.

    If you have questions, you should ask, I'll try to translate ;)

    http://translate.google.com/translate?h ... om%2Fforum

    Apparently, translations aren't that bad ;)

    I'm gonna create a new topic to submit it ;)
