there was tears or joy and frustration when i got it back as it came with lots of boxes of bits but im missing some vital parts
coils,fuel pump,headlight/fairing bracket, screen and a key lol


but loads of thunderace and fzr ru parts to sell to fund them :nod:

it has some redeeming features newish ebc prolight discs,tyres good but mismatched,only 11k on the clocks,even the brakes work and its been sat in a garage for about 4 years lol

found a fuel pump in my vast array of parts but not the bracket it bolts onto lol

had it turning over on the button today which was is good
this was after about 10 mins trying to work out why I couldn't get any lights on or anything I then noticed some numptie had took the main 30 amp fuse out lol

and the front tyre has the strangest tread pattern ive ever seen so im gonna look for a suitable replacement to match the z6 on the back
