Tom
In 84, it was the ONLY production 600 (four cylinder at least.) In 85 Kawasaki came out with the 600 Ninja, which was a bit faster than the FJ. The FJ series bikes (both the 600 and the 1100) were the first to have the mono-shock in the rear. Everyone else followed suit. They're great bikes. I've had little trouble keeping up with the faster crowd. (On much newer, much faster bikes) I have several pics in the Yamaha section of the photo Gallery.

Actually, here's all the pics I've uploaded so far: http://totalmotorcycle.com/BBS/album_se ... rch=Toyuzu

Here's one I've posted, but it didn't get uploaded. It's a bit closer to you can see the bike better than some of the others:

Great looking bike, mine looked extactly like yours(perhaps mine was an 84), looks like you take care of your ride.
