FZR400RR with 1998 FireBlade motor
Enjoy !!!

If a 1998 FireBlade motor slotted into a Yamaha FZR400RR SP sounds like a barrel of laughs, then prepare to chuckle at this. Making 150bhp and weighing just 152kg wet, Suspensionsmith's hybrid is worth a second, third and fourth glance, as it pulls away from you on the track. Featuring Ohlins suspension, a home-made carbonfibre tank, 997cc piston kit, modified frame, Triumph Daytona 650 fairing and a host of other tried and tested performance mods, the bike was built for riding. Described as being a little "rough around the edges, cosmetically" by the owner, we love it's purposeful look and can only imagine what a hoot it is to actually ride.

Re: FZR400RR with 1998 FireBlade motor
it's more than just a Blade motor in a TJ fairing though ... the engine is mounted differently to change the weight dist .... the bike is really a test bed for him.
He's also got a road going 3TJ which he moded the front suspension using 2 SP forks putting comp in one and rebound in the other

given it's wet weight the hoop can also be used a carry handle for picking it up.
