I bought a 91 FZR 600 about 2 months ago for £895. Had some cracks in fairing near headlight and in the side panel so I've sorted those out and got all the plastic painted at work. Runs OK but I think it needs the carbs syncing. Just hoping I pass mod 2 on Thursday, can't wait to take it for a ride!
