    Hi, I am new to the forum. I recently bought a 1986 FZ600 that is not currently running, due to the last owner blowing the engine and ripping out important pieces before I got my hands on it (and I am still trying to save money for a new engine and whatnot). I look forward to getting help and support from other Yamaha owners like yourselves.
