New Bike...New Project..Starting Over Again

[sweekster]

Ok so I've been looking to get a bigger bike for a good while now. It's not that I don't like 600, I actually think they are great but the seating position can be quite a handful for my neck to deal with and some longer rides are just down right painful. Started looking around for something bigger with a better seating position. Ended up finding what you see below there for a pretty good price. It's a 94 FZR 1000. It's been sitting for about 4 years now. There's no key and no seat. All bodywork is there with an extra rear tail. A Protek Keyless gas cap. In the box of parts that came with there were K&N pods which leads me to think it's got some kind of jet kit (maybe a stage 3). Also has a full Yoshi system on it. Does it run? I hope so. But keep in mind my 600 did not run when I bought that one either. With all that said...I don't have a need for 2 FZR's right now so I will be putting my 600 up for sale. Anyway...on to the pics

Nice find!

I would highly suggest ripping the carbs out and do a serious cleaning. 4 years = varnish in the carbs.

Keep us up to date with the progress!

Nice to see someone joining the 1000 crowd Haunter and I could use some company. Do you still fly that RC Plane?

Yeah..I've been wanting to for a while. Had myself convinced I needed an EFI bike but I got over that!! Plus I realized I really have a love for the FZR so I jumped on this when i saw it. That plane is actually a trainer (my second one) and has only actually flown once. We took it out so I could learn and as soon as it was up the muffler came off. We haven't been out to fly again since.

Im sure you will have it up and running in no time. Good luck!

Thanks Mark...I just noticed the new pic in your sig...the bike looks really good.
