    I have an FZ600...its a great bike to start on....its docile (you can tune the hell out of it though and take it to the track)....its light.....its UNBELIEVABLY manueverable.....I will never get rid of mine...... let me know if you have questions about it

    thats barely broken in.....ride it....its the best beginner bike with balls and handling out there alot of ppl would say.... get some lowers...wider rear tire....if there is some kind of rear fender eliminator kit for it, do that.....then it would be modern enough... what colour?

    I believe lockhart phillps makes lower plastic...you might be able to get some Napoleon barend mirrors.....I dont know about the wheels...prolly can go 1 size wider at least, but you need to find some folks who know about these are see if they can help....

    Ok...I am quite flustered here...I have a manual...but I dont know for sure where to find the oil drain plug on this 88 FZ600... I have found a plug on either side of the engine...it takes an allen-type wrench....some oil came out....but....maybe just a cup....there must be more in there....I can see some of it grinning at me thru that window....I am also worried that the crazy canuck who owned it before may have run it with low oil..... any help...pics...descriptions would be great thanks fellows Ciao

Thanks all....and I'll let you know how she goes Cheers

    I need some thoughts on what colour to paint my 88 FZ600. I would prolly add some decals or wings or flames or something For those of you who arent familar with it, here is a generic picture http://www.motorbikes.be/motorbike/1640/full.jpg thanks for any advice I was thinking yellow or black...but yellow might appear trashy

    Yeah...I am sure I'll need something else carb related before the bike is retired.... I am actually in the USA...near boston...havent seen any of these in the local breakers....ebay seems to be my only source....
