The Ultimate FZR Thread

[7thgear]

FZRs are among the hot selling series of the 90s and their production was ceased when the YZFs, the more improved form of the FZRs were brought into production. The FZRs are still liked across the world, gold is gold they say(H)

I'll post pics of the bikes, since FZRs have been much alike in colour (the renowned red/white colour scheme) people find it difficult to differentiate which is which, because the re/white colour scheme is found in all cc class.

FZR150, not sure about the model year and could find only one pic. Not many were produced, a rare bike to find.

The 250s were brought to market first in the year 1986. The bike was featured with a Genesis engine, single front disk brake and in only red/white colour scheme. The 1986-87 models were 2kr/2rf models.

A modified 86 model:

1988-89 models were 3HX1/3HX2/3HX3, slight changes made to the fairings:

1990-91 model 3LN1/3LN2 came with the revolutionary EXUP valve, 45HP, dual front disk brakes and Deltabox 1 main frame:

1992 models FZR250R 3LN3/3LN4 (Single opening twin headlights) Rest of the features were almost the same, produced 45HP:

1993 FZR250R 3LN6 HP was reduced to 40 in later models

1994 FZR250R 3LN7 40ps@14,000rpm

I shall resume with the 400 and later models later.

[7thgear]

1986 marked the beginning of the 400cc class of FZR. The first model was the 1WG Genesis model.

The 1987 model was given the name FZR400RSP EXUP, it was 2TK model with fully adjustable rear shock and an oil cooler.

The 3EN1 1988 model came with same features except for the shift in ram air pipe position, which shifted to just above the headlights.

A modified EN1:

The 1989 EN2 model which looked much alike the 1990 model 250, and almost same colour schemes had similar specs as previous model, except for the shift in ram air pipe positioning, the pipes were shifted below the headlights again. I came to know I wasn't the only one who didn't like the above headlight ram air pipe position;)

The 1990 model was a completely new one inthe 400cc class. It was named FZR400RR EXUP and it was 3TJ1 model. A true racing bike with new design frame, sleek stylish, meant to be ridden hard on the track:

The 3TJ2 1991 model was named FZR400RRSP EXUP. It came with large capacity radiator, one extra fibre and one metal clutch plate, and different rear calliper bracket. The FZR was on a way to modernization.

The 3TJ6 model produced in 1992 and 93 had same features as the previous model, only 500 of these bikes were produced so finding one in Pakistan is quite rare. Anybody got one?(H)

The 1994 3TJ7 model came with only a change in colours, again only 500 units were produced:

[7thgear]

The 600s have had great many changes in the shape and some other specs. I am not much sure of the model names but as far as I know all the models were 3HE, and they were Genesis models, someone correct me if I am wrong.

The 1987 model:

1998 model:

1989 model, with ram air pipe above the headlight:

The 1990 model came with wider rear tyre and 4 pot front calipers.

1991 model:

1992 model:

1993:

A modified 1994:

1995:

The 750s were perhaps not among the hot favorites, even on the internet I could find little information on bike and its pics. However I read that it came with 5 valves per cylinder and the correct tuned bike gave 18km per liter, the top speed was 240km/h:

An 88 model:

An unknown 750 model:

[7thgear]

The 1000s were fast and track style bikes that improved with the passage of time. Many around the world still run races on their race-tuned FZR 1Ks. Some spend $$$ to give it a whole new look instead of going for a new one, its the magic they have got within:rolleyes:

A treat to watch indeed................

[imranbhatti]

Thats another nice & informative thread by 7thgear (Y)

[7thgear]

Itss tooooo classic bro spare parts not available any where in world now

Its true partly. However not all parts are extinct. I heard that even its carbs can be imported. Sometimes parts of other bikes can be used as well. About two years ago I lost the speedo cable inner wire as the outer cable got loose from the tyre side and the inner cable fall somewhere, new one could not be found however I was successful to have a new one built manually looking just alike the original one, so there are bypass ways and thats why we keep seeing even old models on the streets.

[ahmed1984mirza]

@7th gear personally i don't recommend 4 cylinder bikes because 4 cylinder are too complicated to tune i own bandit 250 and tunning of its carbs are too complex for a simple mechanic have to go to expert and they charge you what they want i am a gr8 lover of gs 500 a simple n straight ride got everything what a biker want

[7thgear]

^It depends, I've been riding mine for more than 4 years now, no engine issues, if you don't mess with the carbs they won't mess with you ever, its like the principle of science that every action has a reaction

[imranbhatti]

@7thgear

Very well said. Among the four cylinders sporties FZR series bikes are best & most easy to maintain.

[7thgear]

^Thanks

[Zeejigs]

nice bike!

[SarsalanS]

I also own Yamaha FZR600R and no doubt it is one hell of a bike.. It is the same as in the picture shown with not even a minor difference except the exhaust..
