    Just bought a beat up old XJ600 in the UK and found this site while looking for parts. Good to meet you guys and hope to get involved in all things XJ.
    So I guess I better crack a couple of cans while I find my way around this site? I hope to get to know you all a bit better as time goes on?

    Welcome from Wisconsin USA!
    Get a manual - check your valve clearances - check those rear brake shoes for delamination - check/replace all front brake components - new tires.

    Enjoy riding!

    Another shout at ya from MKE!

    Ask alot of questions.

    Get your parts from Chacal/ Len (XJ4ever) - click on link in the upper right hand corner of this page.
    They are trust worthy, fair and fast (not sure about across the pond).

    Ride SAFE!
