Title: Meet FZankenstYn
Post by: ArchDruid on 24 March 2018, 04:13:15 pm

Probably not one for the purists - A monster amalgamation of some of my previous Yamaha toys - although it was frustrating on many an occasion.  It took nearly 18 months to go from my photoshop idea to reality, but thats because I have a day job & a family, so spare time comes at a premium.

Fazer 1000 Gen 1 Engine & Frame, now backdated a bit, with Tail End frame mods to fit seat & rear cowl from a YZF 750 (circa 1995), and Front subframe mods to fit the Fairing & Headlights from an FZ 750 (circa 1985), but keeping the original clocks.
Retro - No ABS, no traction control, no chip-controlled throttle, no electronic fuel injection, no ride control modes, …
Pure Sports - Twist it, feel it, ride it ….. simple.   And I love it.

By the way, I have the original parts available if anyone is looking to repair their Fazer Gen 1  …. 
Front:  Fairing, Screen, Headlights, Front subframe, Fairing inners.
Rear:  Seat, Rear Cowling, Tail lights, Exhaust (slip-on only), seat lock & cable assembly.

Excellent, really cool paint job. Wes Cooley and Dave Aldana spring to mind. :thumbup
