Moto-Brian Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 Well, I have a dealership that used to be Dutchman Racing - if anyone here knows the history with that team, it's pretty cool. Anyways, they have a 1990 FZR400 that is fully track ready and has numerous build parts on it and enough spares to not get you caught out at a track day or race.It is in need of some body paint, but overall, is really in decent shape. In fact, has always been stored in room temps and out of the elements.They are asking $1500. Get with me and I will get you the dealer name and contact. Cool bike. I'd give 'er a shot, but we have enough projects!I will post a pic soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moto-Brian Posted September 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 What class would that race in?For racing, it would be a D Superstock or D Superbike. Lightweight type machine against SVs and such... Also vintage at this stage and could be ran in the LW Stars at Mid-O and possibly other classes...

I didn't look at the rear tire size - I didn't even have that cross my mind, but a great question. I'd have to look or ask them what it has... Hmmmm... I am willing to bet it doesn't, but I might be wrong. The thing is so super clean, it's amazing. The calipers are even showroom fresh. The motor has dust on it from being in the shop, but is eat off condition. These guys were doing AMA stuff and it shows in the prep of the bike...I'll shoot you his info...

Tpoppa Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 Are these FZRs competitive with SV650s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 The 400, probably not. Stock suspenders were pretty low tech, only adjustment was preload on the back spring. With a cbr rear shock fitted and some racrtech gold emulators I hear it tightens up a lot...as far as power, the 400 put out around 70 stock. The nice thing is the 400 had an aluminum frame as opposed to steel on the 600 and above. You can bolt a 600 motor right into a 400 frame IIRC. That brings you up to 90-something horse depending on mods. The fzr was a great platform, I really liked mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmutt Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 (edited) Arent the YZF750 and 600 relatively the same cyl/head with a bit more bore, stroke, and cam? Heard they were but the source is possibly less-than-credible and I've not researched this:edit:Sorry, meant FZR not YZFBut if so, a 750 in that frame would surely boast badassedness Edited September 12, 2012 by Hellmutt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 750 has the genesis 5 valve head and I believe the cyl bank is canted a different angle forward. Pretty sure only the 600 will bolt in. With pipes, jets, k&n filter and a timing advance key the fzr600 puts out close to 100 hp if properly tuned. Not bad for 80's technology.

Moto-Brian Posted September 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 Actually, guys have been known to squeeze the 750 and 1000 motors in them. However, not a direct bolt in like the YZF600 and FZR600... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 I'm sure mutt. I'm starting to want an i4 sport bike again....but I'm at my limit of bikes and my better half doesn't really want any more in the garage....and I'm not getting rid of the cb project or the tl any time soon.
