    Hi everyone,

    I bought a non-running FZR250 the other day, and have been reading lots of the info on this site. I rebuilt a couple old hondas a few years back, and have been wanting another project, this turned up. I almost certainly paid too much for it, but that's what I get for convincing myself I wanted an 80s/90s 4 cylinder with dual headlights.

    This is the current state, not the best but not the worst. The fairings are off and a bit rough, I'm considering getting a reproduction set. If any of you are browsing the FZR section, I'm sure you will see some of my upcoming threads.

    That bike looks to be pretty good ... doesnt look "crusty" at all ... cant see any rusty bolt heads or nuts at least

    I gave u Premium membership as there is alot of resources for the FZRs .... mostly in Japanese but pretty easy to translate these days

    Definitely could be way worse, the paint on the frame is a lot worse than it looks, someone used a brush at some point in the past. Maybe a project for the future when I've got it running.

    Thank you! I appreciate it, I'll have a look!
