So ive picked up a damaged FZR600, its in need of work, namely forks and plastics.. but i may make it an unfaired streetfighter style bike.

Any decent colour schemes, im up for any recommendations, im not fussy!
May use it as a track bike for a laugh one or 2 times, but either way it is going on the road!

Also, i take it rear seats are available, this has a cover for where the rear seat should be Razz

Throw me some ideas, couldnt care how crazy!

I'm pretty sure that the seat is under the rear cowl. If you unbolt it.

Did you pick it up today? It looked much better standing up than laying in bits leaking fork oil on a roundabout Smile

Also, If I can find it you can have the MOT certificate, when I bought it it had mot, and I think it got crashed a month later and sat around. So it should have about 6 months left.

ah i see you owned this monster?
Erm, funny i got in a bit of crap with police when transporting home, but hey Razz what can you do eh!

An MOT might help, as i need some proof of ownership Laughing

I didnt bother unbolting anything, thats for the morning Twisted Evil

Cheers for that, any idea on colour scheme?!

I'd like to point out I never recieved a v5, and lost the owners slip on the way home, hence why it was never taxed.

It was relativly clean when I bought it, and then it got slid at lydden, then it got smashed at the loop. Personally I was going to go with blackboard paint and stick a chalk holder under the screen, but that might not be your thing.

Use an original FZR pattern, but choose the colours yourself.

I'm thinking black as the main colour and probably white as the secondary, just as the wheels are white already. Might choose to go funkier with the second colour though. Mine is "streetfighter" too. Wink

I've always liked the speed block design on Yamahas, especially this that they did for the FZ400

Think matts R6 is a modern version of the Kenny Roberts scheme.

Yea i like that colour, was thinking yellow and black, yellow rims with black rim tape or the other way round.

Either main colour yellow and details in black, or black with yellow details.

Must be speed block, I prefer the yellow/black but thing red/white will look better on a FZR.

Indeed. I have an '88 FZ600 and, they are a great ride. Particularly
if you love blasting down twisty country lanes.
