Moderator YamaHead Posted December 10, 2004 Moderator Posted December 10, 2004 FZ's are great bikes!........I used to have one....love to find another :wink: Very straight forward simple motor design......quite reliable 8) Absolute pleasure to work on compared to some of the newer bikes. BTW.... :hi to the Forum. :wink:
SPINAROONEY Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 HI, I ALSO HAVE A YAMAHA FZ600. GREAT BIKE TO START RIDING ON. THATS WHAT IM DOING ANYWAY. I GET MY PARTS FROM BLAYS, THERE IN TWICKENHAM THERE NUMBER IS 0208 8942103. TRY THEM. AS FOR INFO I AM ALSO TRYING HARD TO FIND IT ON THE NET. BUT A GOOD PLACE TO GO IS EBAY.COM. THEY ALWAYS SELL BITS ON THERE..
solorider Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 the fz600 was a japan only fzr400 with a fj600 engine in it,but had slightly smaller carbs on it due to space limitations.
jixaw Posted December 22, 2004 Author Posted December 22, 2004 thanks guys...I am in the USA...so parts are harder to come by... it does seem like a fun bike to work on...I have to do the front fork seals...I got some Progressive Sunspension front springs... going to put in a jet kit and a jardine muffler on it too.... I live near Boston...so this is something that I will do in the winter when I am not riding... I am getting near fairings for it...and I intend to paint it.... I might need some suggestions on colours ... ...now's your chance guys ...
SPINAROONEY Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 hey, my fz 600 is all white with red squares going sloped up towards the rear. powder coated wheels look great too. Can i ask what a JARDINE MUFFLER is? im new to bikes as well. thanks
