One for Cheesy (I think it's close to him too)...
Never seen a fully faired FZ before.

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
Can't see KFBs picture, but I assume it's the low mileage FZ in Ipswich, no one I know locally knows who's it is, and no one has seen it, lowers are after market.
I've spent the day with a 1994 NSR250 used by Dajiro Kato, sadly the owner wasn't willing to let me have a go on it - I did ask.

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
Seller's description
For sale I have a very clean FZ750 1FN
I was hoping to keep this for my own collection
This has only covered 6147 miles
2 owners from new
It remains as original and almost as it came out of the box, unmolested and unrestored.
This particular bike is fitted will full lower fairings, which Yamaha sent a small number of bikes to Harris for these lowers to be fitted from new as a promotion.
I will put a full years mot on for the sale
The bike starts runs rides as it should.
Unfortunately I can’t offer test rides as the bike is untaxed
I’m after £4900 for the bike.
probably best lowest mileage irreplaceable fz750 on the Market.
Any questions please let me know.
The bike is located in Ipswich Suffolk.

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
That's the one, I've lived in Ipswich since 1993 and the only FZs I've ever seen here are the two I've owned, so it's probably been locked in a garage since 1987

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
I don't know, they were definitely available as an optional extra, and the press at the time said they were made by Harris, but I've seen Canadian bikes with them.
They look better without them

Looks like a nice thing.
I don't think I've ever seen a rear brake MC like that one with an integrated res.

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
I just realised that the Rothmans Honda design is one of my fave paint jobs.
Just had an idea of buying a Blade and getting them colours....
