Re: Hose sizes for stock FZR radiator

hi, The prior posts contain links to supplier of silicon hoses but not KITS or in NZ so importing bits of hose is required.

Re: 96 fzr 600 just purchased today!

Just an update due to some unfortunate bouts with medical issues I had to put the bike on hold for a bit. Recently I came pretty close to a heart attack and I'm only 26 but very fit. They think it was genetic. Also possibly getting knee surgery (meniscus tear no big deal) but I finally got around t...

The bike still runs and everything but doesn't move so im assuming it...
