Just picked up this 100% original 86 fz750 for a song! After a few master cylinder rebuilds (it has 3!) And a carb tune she's ripping. Very smooth and fast. Smiles for miles
Nice! :clap:
I've been looking for a FZ for a long time.
I'll sell it to you
Where are you?
ooooooh i dig those. :nana:
That looks really nice. What a great find. Are the gold bits factory on that bike?
I love mine, or I used to... :confusing2:
Poor thing has not run in over ten years.
I bought it new in 1986 and put 83,000 miles on it.
I believe the starter clutch has failed. Starter spins
with out turning over the motor. 99.99% sure I would
have to pull the motor and split the cases to repair the
starter problem.
The picture is from Laguna Seca trip in 1986 also with my 1982
Ascot FT500. The lower faring was a loan from Lockhart to
display the bike during the races. Wish I had bought the faring
when it was installed.
I might be willing to let it go to a new owner if that person was
really going to restore and ride it. Would have to be to a GOOD home.
I also still have the Ascot, but, it is pieces and boxes.
I'm in So. Cal.
Cheers everyone.
Eddie Lawson. Daytona. 'Nuff said. My cousin has one in northern Idaho that I believe he would sell; I've been trying really hard not to buy it! If anyone is interested, I can put you in touch with him.
Ahem, Wade?
Dennis, are you inclined towards the Genesis engine (see what I did there?)?
Yes, it would look good next to the 400rr
So, thanks to Wade I am contemplating this acquisition for 3k. Any advice is welcome
Buy it and store it at my house
