I saw an FZR750 recently, rare over here and liked teh look.. Could you make one from a pre-exup FZR1000? I have a spare FZ750 motor so If I could find a motorless 1000 rolling chassis - bingo!

Basically the same bike (FZR1000/750) other than the obvious difference in engine size. My mate had a 750 when I had my 1000 Genesis. I think the FZR750 has an oil cooler and the FZ does not. Can't remember if the FZR750 has 5 gears or six but yours would definitely have six with the FZ engine. You can fit an oil cooler by using the 1000 Genesis sump if I remember right. I'll just say this. My FZR1000 Genesis would show 160mph on the speedo even with only five gears and handled very well with a few suspension mods. Was a lovely old bike. I only sold it around three years ago as I found it uncomfortable after more than half an hour of riding (I'm 52 now).

Unless you're talking about the FZR750RR (OW-01) in which case you'd be better off using a YZF750 or EXUP1000 chassis. I'm building a track bike using a FZR1000 EXUP with OW-01 fairings. It's not going to win any shows but I like it.
