Need to lose the nose cone. It's as ugly as sin :scream:

I had a go on 1 of these that was converted to a trike. Was a nice, smooth pulling thing.

Where'd you find this 1?

Noooo keeping it standard and doing a full restoration on it. Future classic.
Found in the south of England.

Flat out trying to get the fzr going.

happy days, they are hard to break those kwak engines if they have even been half looked after
The shop I bought it off knows the bike from new and it has been well looked after, it will need some tidying and a service.

Ohh, how'd I miss this.
I love the GPz's, I had the A2 900, real liable comfortable big mile munchers. The cam chain tensioner was an issue on the 900's and freezing carbs.
HTR lad, a good clean one of those could be a nice wee pension in a year or three. ;)

So today project 3 / parts bike 2 arrived from Cornwall, (crap sale picture).
I have bought a set of carbs for this as it is `supposed` to have a strong engine and I have all the parts to rebuild it if needed.

Always like trying to get something going that's been lying awhile
I will try with the parts I have and if I get it running will add it to the restoration list.
Spent all summer accumulating spare parts for the builds.
