Hi everyone, bought myself an '89 FZR 250 and am looking for any manuals (English) or any assembly instruction, pictures etc that will help me bring the old girl back to life. I have everything there plus extra's apparently plus some new parts (headset bearings,wheel bearings) so the guy was obviously going to try the rebuild thing himself. Any help would be invaluable as its my first time at trying a complete rebuild of a road bike. Thanks guys, all the best, FZRFANMICK
I was going to post earlier but my browser crashed. Is the engine disassembled? If so, consider replacing all the bearings, seals, clutch plates and cam chain
If its a 2KR it will be 86-88 with the 'skinny' steel frame and single front disc Theres no English resources for the FZR250 as it was a Japan only released bike Plenty of schematics here to help with reassembly http://2fiftycc.com/index.php?resources/categories/fzr250.34/ Start a thread in the projects section and post up some pics and to plot your progress and for any help along the way http://2fiftycc.com/index.php?forums/your-250cc-projects.121/
welcome along mate and happy posting!! you'll get a lot of help in assembling here, heaps of fizzer heads here!
Thanks for everyone's help. You're a good bunch and I look forward to the chats and hopefully one day a ride with some of you. What's happened so far ? I got the frame painted black and have cleaned some parts ready to go on. Got progressive fork springs,putting them in today, the motor is intact and apparently good, the carbies have been serviced and wrapped up until I can source new rubber boots. I've got two sets of wheels,one set no tyres, so I'll clean them up and paint. That's about it so far, I'll try and get some pics going but I'm not yet familiar with how the site works and what I have to do,but bare with me, I'll get with it soon. Thanks again all. C ya soon
Best way with pics is to resize them to a decent size (I do 1000x750 or 800x600) and upload them to imgur Forums etc. use BBCode so just copy the BBCode links and paste them for each image. Otherwise you can copy image location/url and insert them using [ img ] [/ img] tags (no spaces)
Just click on the upload a file button in your reply box and make sure they are around something like 200KB in file size resize in windows paint if they are too big
Hey everybody, got some pics to put up but I'm not good with the computer, so a friend is gonna show me how to re-size them then I'll post em . Cheers everyone
Thanks for the help mate, I not too good with the computer but I'm getting help, in the meantime can you tell me what the headset bearing codes are so I can order them. Thanks again for all your help. I'm getting some pics re-sized so I can put in project section and keep everyone up to date. Cheers, Mick
STEERING HEAD BRG (90-140-04) SUZ/YAM 3 This one is for the '89 3LN1. They don't list the 2kr models... are they the same????
Maybe different ...different frame .... Ill look at the part #s @FZRFANMICK ... is your bike definitely a 2KR?
The bearings are the same for 2kr and 3LN's - I can provide the parts... they are ALL BALLS (USA brand).... Sent you a PM! @FZRFANMICK Part Information 30x48x13mm and 25x48x13mm plus two seals.
Hey guys, looked up the frame numbers and of the two frames I have, both are 3HX1, so does that mean I buy 2KR parts ?
