Is it a FZR?

Post by the_finch »

Saw this pic on my ocak Craigslist an wondered if the bike lurking in the background was a 91-92 single headlight FZR600.

What do you think?

looks to be a honda, here's a good front shot of a single headlight. You can see the intake holes are part of the upper fairing

looks like a suzuki rf900r in the back ground.

I had one for several years, along with a couple of bandit 400s like the one in the forground.

(it could also be the rf600r, the picture in the ad is a little fuzzy).

Thanks for the responses everyone. You've helped me realize two things; my eye for picking out older motorcycles isn't as well trained as my eye for picking out old cars and I really need to start wearing my glasses again. lol

It does make sense that he'd be a Suzuki fan though.
