89 FZR600 Motor difference

Post by tkclow »

Hey all, quick question. Is there any big difference in the 89 motors as opposed to the 90-up other than the oil filter? Any HP difference or anything. I am asking because I may have a lead on a freshly rebuilt engine for like $250.00 shipped but I believe it is an 89 and I have a 92 now. Thanks for any input.

they're the same, as you mentioned the only difference is the oil filter.

I was hoping that was all but I wasn't 100% sure

That's it, you just won't be able to have a spin on oil filter, more difficult to change but no big deal :)
