There is one for sale near me for $1200, looks to be in pretty nice shape for $1200 and I’ve always wanted to ride/own one. Anything I should know about these? It has a nice looking aftermarket seat too...maybe a Corbin with matching red piping...has 45k miles on the odo. Condition without physically looking at it and considering it’s age, perhaps a 7/10.
 
I had a first year, 1984 FJ1100 back in 1984.  I liked it very much, put on around 20k miles.  The Corbin seat is an improvement over the stock seat.  I also bought a Corbin with red piping for mine.  Mine burnt up some valves that I had to get repaired.

oddball tire sizes and second gear issues.  loved my fj1200  :)


Yeah I forgot about the different tire sizes.  I think it has a 16" on the front.  You should still be able to find the tires though.
