The F'n Juggernaut - Yamaha FJ2400 Build Video Documentary
I'm putting together a video-documentary on YouTube on my next dual-engine motorcycle build: The F'n Juggernaut - based on the FJ1200 (see what I did there... F & J?!?)
Click the pic below to launch the video:
I've been posting in the Japanese Builds forum if you want to see what I've done in the past, but Like & Subscribe on the YouTube for notifications on what I'm doing now. Hopefully, the culmination of this build will be a run at a record at The Bonneville Motorcycle Speed Trials 2021!

I've always had one buddy or another that rode an FJ, but like most, I dismissed it as an "old man's tourer". I was actually shopping for a Katana 1100 (so I could stick with Suzuki & some of the stuff I already know) when the two FJ's literally plopped out of the sky. Once you look over the specs, the FJ1200 engine is phenomenal!
- Over 100 rwhp
- air-cooled, with oil cooler - no ugly radiator to have to hide
- legit 145+mph top speed (may or may not be GPS verified by me)
- suspension components to handle that speed
- proven high mileage reliability
- guy are giving them away
Basically, any style that's already been applied to a CB750 chopper can work with a much bigger, more powerful, more fun-er-er FJ, and $500 CB's are getting harder and harder to find. Now, there's a bunch more wiring and an ECU to deal with, but you can easily hide all that stuff and cut out whatever you don't need, like every other chop project.She's a fun platform that I am having fun trying to figure out.
