Yet another 3TJ hybrid

Post by plodder »

Image

Spec is:
FZR600R Foxeye engine

Fzrtim's engine mounting plates with 6mm ground of the left hand cylinder head mounts to maintain allignment (Tim had to make a mirror image plate for the left side because of this). Right hand engine mount collars from a FZR1000 EXUP as they're shorter, so the bolts don;t stand proud.

FZR600R Foxeye carbs

FZR600R Foxeye loom & CDI

3TJ radiator with outlet nozzle bent slightly outwards to prevent hose clash with pipes. Home made Tee piece for oil cooler hose. Outlet radiator hose protected with glass fibre tape just to be sure.

YZF600 Thundercat Delvelic downpipes with 2 header gaskets in each port (no pipe bending required). The rear pipe mount lines up just below the rear engine bolt on the Thundercat pipes, so easy to make a bracket.

FZR1000 EXUP exhaust link pipe & random carbon can. There's some packing to match the link pipe to the headers.

FZR1000 EXUP fork bottoms mated to 3TJ stanchions with FZR1000 EXUP damper cartridge to stiffen up the damping.

R1/R6 blue spot calipers with EBC HH pads & braided lines.

FZR1000 EXUP front wheel powdercoated black (rear 3TJ wheel powdercoated to match).

Avon Viper supersports.

FZR1000 EXUP EBC prolite disks with polished centres.

R6 shock with Oolit's extension piece

YZF750 clocks

Modified 3TJ airbox (corners melted down a bit, snorkel removed, lip dremmelled near snorkel bolts and filter held in with wire).

Front of tank raised 10mm to get some extra air in.

FZR1000 EXUP left hand switchgear

FZR1000 EXUP headlight with pilot bulb in it (I'm fed up of paying £16 a bulb with the projectro light)

I think that's it. In case you're wondering why so much FZR1000EXUP parts, it's because I usd to break them and have loads of this stuff lying around.

Not had much chance to use it but I did take it out last weekend and it was very quick and handled sweet as.
