Well guys the bike is and FZR at least here, the frame numbers and engine number match my doccuments, wich say FZR600 '92 :headscratch:

You were sayin that it was a thundercat, but isnt the thundercat alluminium frame? Cuz mine is steel, it looks exactly like the thundercat frame, but mine is steel and i can assure you cuz it has a bit of rust in some spots (nothing to worry, some sandpaper and paint solves it)

Some updates soon, since im not that into gray bike + gray wheels, too much of the same color :rofl:

Cheers

Well, that's definitely not a '92 FZR frame.

Have any of you considered that the subframe has been altered. It still has the nasty bent tube 92 passenger pegs on but the loop that acts as a fall brace for the overflow bottle & the VR could have been moved forward & re-welded ?

It's not just the sub-frame, it's the actual frame that is not an FZR. You have a '92, take a look. ;)

After doing some more research, cause it's been bugging me.... that's definitely a YZF frame. Which means there's no way possible it's a '92.

sub-frame and all.

Thats weird cuz i can asure you the vin numbers match my doccuments for a 92 fzr600 xD i can get the docs scanned and a pic of the vin if you want to confirm :grinnod: hehe

Just cutted about 10\12cm of my silencer hehe, it was too silenced for my taste xD
Ill post some pics later.

And the engine, are you sure it isnt from 92? So what bike should i order parts like oil filter, exhaust headers...if i buy to the fzr than they wont fit?
