This isn’t a museum piece but it is an honest survivor from the original owner. The revolutionary 5 valve per cylinder heads were cutting edge at the time and the technology was used in many future models like the FZR1000 and OW01. Having covered only 14k miles this example looks very complete and is reported…
I can’t remember the last time one of these has passed over my executive sized desk here at RSBFS World HQ. Not an SP, not an OW but just as rare. I can remember witnessing a few fraternity house parking lot burn outs with the old FZ (shirtless of course). Very few reached the hands…
It’s been a busy week over at ClassicSportBikesForSale with a handful of awesome bikes posted and still up for auction.
