Nouveau-Retro

Would anyone here know what, if any, modern shocks might fit a 1988 FZ600? Or perhaps what the rate, in lb/in for the rear shock spring is? Thanks, Ken

BUMP I was really hopeing someone here would have the manual for this bike.

If anyone here has a manual for either of these models, would you mind very much looking up the resistance (in Ohms) spec for the stator. I just can't see buying the manual just for this spec. Thanks, Ken

If Big Ross is the same person as stwrss in my Yahoo group, YamahaSR500CafeRacers, then he knows what my dream Yamaha is starting to look like. Obviously, an SR500 but, with a few upgrades. A TT frame with a single shock rear and 41mm Suzuki GSX750F forks, 17" GS500E wheels, solo seat, clip ons, ported, 540cc engine with a Carrillo rod and dual oil lines, box section swingarm, and about 300-310 lb (137-141kg). Steering angle is 25 degrees and wheelbase is 2" (51mm) longer than stock. If anyone wants to see pics of the bike or many other cool looking SR500's, click on the link below and join to see the pics. Ken http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/YamahaSR500CafeRacers/
