1989 Early (F) Yamaha FZR600 3HE Blue/Yellow Retro For Sale

Hi and welcome to my listing for my Yamaha FZR600

This is a very early bike registered during April 1989, it is the oldest one I've seen so far.

The bike has covered approx 68k miles however I was told it has had a replacement engine at some point and the clocks were changed before its most recent MOT so they are showing 52k. The speedo and rev counter both work however the mileage seems to be stuck.

Lots of work has been done to recommission it as it's been little used over the past few years however there is still some improvement to be made - it sometimes splutters at low revs when pulling away so I think the carbs will need looking at. It starts well even from cold, has plenty of power and stops as it should do. It sounds great with its full micron system.

When I purchased the bike, I took it to a local motorcycle specialist who did some work to bring it to a safe standard such as refinishing the fork stanchions and replacing the brake master cylinder, spark plugs etc. I have also just changed the oil and filter (July '20).

I would describe it as a project bike which can be used as is or improved upon. As it is now over 30 years old, it shows its age in terms of its paint/ bodywork with marks/ scrapes however it is still presentable (please see the photos for more detail). It is finished in a blue/ yellow colour scheme which I am told was a special order from factory. I also have the side fairings which will come with the bike.

The bikes starts and runs and has MOT until Feb 2021. It can be ridden as I have done however I would advise collection by trailer for anything more than a short journey as it has not been used very much recently.

I will also include a spare set of original wheels but in yellow to match the blue/ yellow externals.

Overall a rare opportunity to purchase an early example of the FZR which are now starting to increase in value.

If you have any questions at all, then please do not hesitate to message me.

Thanks for looking.
