ozzie xj 900. pics

hi there all, i thought i would finally post up some pics of my pride and joy. she is an 85 xj 900f and i doubt i would ever part with her. by the way i am hailing from victoria australia.

 

Noice !
We - (US) never got the "chin spoiler". I was thinking of making one or modifying one from a boneyard.

I'm sure they are laying all over the place in England and Australia.

 

Like that colour scheme,I've got a white '83 model 750 the black and red looks much better.
Those bellypans don't get seen much anymore I think a lot of them suffered terminal gutter bash or big rock damage after all XJ's go everywhere.Or just got taken off and forgotten when the 4-1 was fitted.
Very nice mate,very nice.

 

reminds me of the FZ's

 

There was a company in Germany selling new belly pans a year or so ago 8O

 

if anyone is looking for an xj bellypan there is one on ebay (aus) at the moment. but plerase dont bid against me on the grab rail, i really need one as mine was removed by a po to put on a bag rack. thanks for the nice comments guys about the bike, she is my pride and joy and gets a run a few times a week.

 

You still after a grab rail?

 

My 900 is on the market.
Running restored bike tuned on-the-edge.
Spare engine.
Spare front forks.
Spare side covers
Fairings
and just about everything but a spare frame.
Sweet looking, fast, limiter, ported, polished and so pimped-out and pinstriped you need to be wearing a Tuxedo to look as nice!

 

Man I really want a 900.
I'm sure I could never afford this one.
How can you be selling her Rick?
New bike to take her place?

 

I'd think about it but my suit isn't quite that nice!

Besides Mass is on the other side of the country.

That's one sweet machine Rick, you know you'll be sorry you sold her!

 

Rick, are those EMGO Yamaha GP "long" mirrors? I've been trying to find something that ends up "wider" than the stock Yammie mirrors on my Seca, I'm not that fond of my shoulders to feel the need to look at them all the time...

 

How much for the tux?

 

I forget the Brand Name of the Mirrors ... but, they are a longer reach than stock.
Being a real wide-body, myself, the stock mirrors were useless to me.
I shopped those off eBay, some years back. I get to see what's lurking behind me instead of looking at me in the mirrors.

 

gee thats one great 900 you have there rick, if it was in oz it would already be beside mine. adrian i ended up getting a grab rail off ebay for $30, it needed a bit of attention with the wet and dry and a polish but it came up as good as new.

 

Nice bike Rick and what a smart looker you are.
Me mam from County Cork and the wife from County Kerry reckon you have to be have Irish in you.
