Hi, new to this site but been reading stuff for a long time now. I Have a good running engine 400 1989 done 18000 miles, also carbs, airbox, cdi, clocks, radiator.
Will also be breaking a 1992 fzr600 in about a months time when the 4/6 is done.
Can't wait to get it on the road after reading stories on here
So if there's anything you need, let me know.
I'm in London

You say an '89 fzr ... is it a 3TJ or a 3EN2 model ?
Actually I could do with a choke lever and I'm in London too.

3EN2...ok I'll take pics. Making a start tomorrow (Saturday) Going to remove engine and everything else i need to junk, will clean up the frame etc while i have the chance, then wait for my new engine to arrive, incidently the engine i have bought has been tuned by Slipstream, the head has been flowed, not sure if the cams are standard or not. But hopefully it should punch out a few more horses

I was pleased with price yeah, bit of a bargain if it's ok. I have to take the alternator of my 600. Any idea how the rotor comes off, will i need a puller or something like the rear wheel spindle to get it off?

Sound good :)
The 3en2 has two round headlights with air intakes below them
