UK bikes are a 4DX instead of a 3TJ.

Apart from that...I know nothing!!

UK model is the 4DX which has a MPH speedo and fitted with a non restricted CDI/ecu. IMports are the 3tj`s 1, 2 ,3, 4, 5, depends on the year of manufacture, speedo is KLM and has restricted cdi/ecu. both bike looks exactly the same apart from the tail light. thats all i know am afraid, well its what i have read anyway in the forums anyway :grin: .

i may stand corrected
but the 3tj1 and 4dx are the same beast, it's only the SPs that had the oil cooler

the 4DX from 1992 to 1995 (ie UK spec) are the same as, give or take, the 3TJ1 (which was 1989 onwards)

the models with the oil cooler were the SPs marked as 3tj 2 /6 /7 ( possibly the earlier 2tk sp had an oil cooler but i'm not sure on that one) see here

http://www.rampant-racing.com/fzr400models.html

and yes the inlaid 2 piece tail light looks the dog's, compared to the massive disco light on the 4dx

Uk bike had mph clocks, heat transducer (often mistaken for oil cooler) same as sp, unrestricted cdi, painted frame and swingarm ( not brushed effect ), larger rear light, different carb main jets, slightly different wiring loom, rounder mirrors, single nut on rear wheel spindle,,,,,, think that's about it,,,,,,

UK bikes don't have amber running lights :peace:

Running lights are American.

Nice one with the lock nut on the rear spindle. When I went to a track day I had my tyres changed by the fitter there. God they made a meal of it and got all unptight over that lock nut, they were going to try and move it with pliers !!!
