V4 stroker.....RZV500R new lease on life

[joolstacho]

What a great job... well done!
But don't ever chuck it down the road will you. I repaired one that'd had a low speed drop, and it was a nightmare to straighten up... brackets on brackets and light construction that bends easily.
Getting everything back in line was next to impossible.

Bike seem firm; did uou change the fork springs, what oil grade do you use, what mono on the back?

Pipes look peaky, again what make? I would have liked to see the bike picking up from the first stop sign, on the vid. but it's edited.

Thanks

P.S. super(b) bike anyway and sorry being late, from a relative point in space...

Front end is 87-88 FZR1000, and I did change the spring and added an emulator. Rear shock is the original aluminum bodied RZV.
Pipes are Jolly Moto….
Had spent much time pulling carbs over and over for jetting as well as rust from tank issues.
Long story, but bike is alive and well once again.
You can see the RZV up close in my last YouTube, which is linked at the bottom.

There never is a plan to crash, and so far the bike still is wearing its original clothes. I have other bikes for pushing limits, the RZV is for casual high speed fun.

I must say that the one I had, whatever it's problems, made a sound that was just fabulous... almost as good as Tina Turner's voice!
