1994 Yamaha FZR 600R, 599cc. Registration number M46 GRH. Frame number 4JH 005125. Engine number 4JH 005125.
Introduced in 1989 the FZR600R slotted neatly into an entire range of four-cylinder sportbikes, bracketed by the FZR400 and the FZR750, with the FZR1000 at the top of the range.
It featured Yamaha’s typical tech, including their EXUP exhaust valve and steeply canted Genesis engine block designed to lower the center of gravity. Unlike the 750 and 1000cc Yamahas, the 600 used a four-valve head, and the later R version seen here had a claimed 98hp. Constant evolution meant that, by 1994, the bike had four-piston brakes, revised frame geometry, and the swingarm was wider, although it retained the 18″ rear wheel.
GRH was bought new by Mike Majors on the 2nd Sept 1994 and has 6 service stamps in the book by Andrews of Scarborough, the last one in 2001 at 22,000 miles. It was then bought by Paul Storr of Scarborough in 2000 and our vendor bought it from RS Motorcycles in in Goole in 2001 when the mileage was 17,373. The last MOT was in 2009 at 22,462 miles, today it is 22,892. It has been off the road since that time as it went in for a carb rebuild and the garage went into liquidation, when recovered the carb was found to be missing.
Being sold now due to a lack of storage, this bike comes with the V5C, V5, original service book and manual. Prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the completeness of this project.
