Hi all
i have noticed that an r6 rear has been fitted to the fzr, i have an 88 3en1 is this a simple fit and if so what year r6 will fit best , other than that what is an easy fit as i want to have a more modern rear.
cheers guys

Don't know if it's any help as mine is a race bike but I'm in the middle of fitting a TZ seat unit. So far I've had to take out the original seat mounts and do a little trimming at the front of the seat unit around the tank cover.

I'd imagine a 5EB seat unit would be easiest, the bulge would be ideal for the expansion reservoir to hide in.

if you don't keep the r6 seat.you will have a big empty void that will need filling. if you keep the seat it will probably go, but it's a big seat! on the 3tj the subframe hangs below the seat i think, the 3en is a different shape, but might still need cutting for it to fit.
the rear will always look out of place if you change it as the bike is 20+years old.

Thanks guys i have been searching for a single seat unit for a while on ebay and cant find one hence deciding on putting a more modern rear from something else as more readily available.

Why not use a fzr 600 race seat.

Scuffer this may help,..

I wish I had on mine instead of the TZ one, it would have been pretty much a straight fit

A bit of a bugger to fit i take it Thunderace?

The TZ seat unit is a bit narrow at the front so I've had to do a bit of trimming

Thanks again guys
what model number fzr600 do i need to look out for?
i am glued to ebay in the hope i can get a single seat and my missus thinks i am sad.
