The rebirth of a 1990 fzr1000

[Stig]

That’s one task I’ve def got to do. My back tyre is down to limit
I’ve got a Pirelli ready to fit as soon as the bike comes out its bag

That’s one task I’ve def got to do.

Ive got about a thousand tasks left.

Same here. Mine needs a full going through after being sat for 6 years. I’m just waiting to get my garage back after my lads finished his car.
Car is booked for mot this week so hopefully things will start moving and progress be made

First thought i had is you should go thru the carbs, immediately followed by do you get your lite-tek carb kits from vapourworx in the uk? Im ordering my kit next week.

Well nothing gets a buyer going like seeing there's only 1 left. Vapourworx is officially out of the big carb rebuild kits for 89-95 fzr1000's ! Only cost me $185 usd. Im not a fan of the new normal and pray it changes in a few months.

Nothing picture worthy but ive had moments of time to make progress. I stripped the wheels off the 91 down and got the tires mounted. Hand sanded all the corrosion off with 120 grit paper. Have 220 and 400 to go.

Carb kit has left england but hasnt made stateside. Waiting on a reply for all the o-rings and intake rubbers to see if they are going to ship soon.

I noticed a thread on a zx12r rear shock swap on here literally 5 minutes ago, so a whim i checked ebay pricing. Have one on the way for $42.44 all in.

Sounds like good progress

It’s all going in the right direction. Keep up with the good work.
