Moderator drewpy Posted April 1, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted April 1, 2014 TBH not been a while myself as I'm always busy. Its a good twisty track (being a cart track primarily) the best racing I saw there was scooter racing, they were mad. its only 20 mins from me and if its a nice day, worth a trip out. Motowurx is based near there too and they do import bikes like the fz400 so I may call in and see what they have that'll fit the FZ600. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preload Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Did Yamaha ever manage to get larger carbs fitted to the FZ600 as the chassis was off a FZ400 weren't it and they were a tight fit so smaller carbs was fitted? I'm going back a bit so could be totally wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preload Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 That's good the Alzheimer's hasn't totally got me yet. I've always fancied an FZR400R a trick little bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
