Ha that number plate looks like those eye test charts, like when you get your license. <!-- s:roll: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_roll.gif" alt=":roll:" title="Rolling LoL" /><!-- s:roll: -->

Nice pics I just got me an FZR250, Have to rev the S**t out of to get anywhere, but jeez it's fun... sitting on like 9k revs to do 110 on the motorway but you get that lol
Here is a pic of my 3LN just after last weekends race meeting at Wakefield Park, Goulburn NSW........<!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s --> this is the little jigger on the track. Its not really competitve in the class, but I still had a lot of fun playing with old mate on his GSX-R 400. Pics by Ray Oxford. its a bit odd riding a Yamaha ( and a GSXR 1100) in Kawasaki leathers........but you get that sometimes <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s -->
G'day all, Im Tony. I cant say the pics are of "My" FRZ because I bought it on behalf of my Son who turned 18 today. He stumped up the cash and I spent it for him basically because he admits he knows nothing about Bikes and I have some history with em. That said it was a toss up between an MC19 CBR, The later Yam with the funny name and a classic Fizza and after a month or 2 of looking I went the FZR, Why? Well the Zeal seemed a bit bland, CBR's were pretty knocked about or silly money and I remember a blat I enjoyed years ago on an FZR from Belgrave to Gembrook before the road was better and it was a pleasant memory. Piccies! Got the Wife to hold the bike up while i took a few piccies and this is how the bike arrived
Im sending it to the local Yamaha workshop to be prepped for a roadworthy but I want to gather a few parts before I do that. A quick once over and i reckon she will need a front rotor and pads, New chain and sprockets etc and as the silver has started to come off on the headlights (Cibies) I think they will fail as well. The plastics also need attention and remounting with some love as they are a bit busted around the mount holes, not surprising considering she is 27 years old (1987 FZR 250). Front tyre is about 50% so a new sticky tyre goes on as well. The compliance was done in 2002 in QLD if that matters? and the headlight switch is permanently in the "On" Position. She rides ok and the bike was delivered by the seller, a 70 km trip which the bike did no dramas. My son also asked if I could adjust the take up point on the clutch lever a little closer to the grip. So thats the story! Tony BTW, once on the road I will be "Borrowing" the old girl once or so a week to keep an eye on her condition, Any excuse eh?
Hello fizzer heads Hi, I'm new here. Couldn't find a welcome thread & didn't want a start a new one so I thought I'd kill two birds. <!-- s=0= --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_2gunsfiring_v1.gif" alt="=0=" title="Gunfire" /><!-- s=0= --> So I'll post some pics here -> 1989 2kr 1996 plated
Disappointing to hear of another new rider taken down! <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_sad.gif" alt="" title="Sad" /><!-- s --> Most of the things are minor or can be fixed easily. Tacho light globe is not hard to replace, proper battery connections can be fitted to the terminals. The clutch and throttle cables are adjustable, or easily replaced. After market levers are cheap on ebay. It will take a bit more effort to correct the stalling and flooding. Both most likely related to the carby float level valves being worn or just not sealing because of dirt in them. Keep us posted..
Here is my work in progress! Love it to death, plan to restore it to original condition. Stator isn't charging the battery, if anyone can help with that would be really good!
Nice bike mate! I have the same but doesn't look as nice In the process of restoring it, have u any idea the order the clutch plates get installed? I've just installed a new clutch and can only get 1st gear
This is a pretty old thread, moved over from another site. Have a look above, item #15 is important. @GreyImport has a better photo I think.
