Not sure why I never joined this forum, but I've got a pair of FZR250's (1987 & 1988) that I bought back in 2014 and never dug into. No title barn finds I plan to keep purely on the track. Took them apart to bring them back from Japan in 2015. Now I'm back in Japan and ready to get back to work... when I'm not at work. Tore them down to bare frames and started busting old rust and dirt and grime when I was back in the US. I daily a track bicycle and main street motorcycle is a 2009 Buell XB9SX that saw some track time when I was in Japan last time.
At least if your based in Japan u will have great access to parts new and second hand Is that a new age 'basket case' ? .... a shopping trolley case
