Went to Mega Motorcycle store today at Swindon, and there was a guy there with a 1991 FZR1000 EXUP, very clean and standard apart from the can. This is the model I had my big stack on, but I still love the looks of this bike. The owner let me have a sit on it, and I found I could reach the bars, but probably wouldn't be able to ride it far, still too much of a stretch for this buggered arm of mine.
He'd just picked it up from wherever, £1500, £120 to insure it, and not even on a classics policy! That's a lot of bike for very little dosh. I once had 180 mph on the clock on mine, he reckoned they held the record for the fastest top end on any mass produced bike until the first Hayabusa came along.
Once again, wish I'd had my camera with me as I never got any photos of my one :\
