EXUP Worldwide was born from the ashes of the original EXUP Brotherhood – the definitive forum for all those who have interest in Yamaha FZ, FZR, and YZF motorcycles.
Thanks for the enthusiasm guys. I love this bikes aesthetic, and the solid relationship it has to the yamaha's we love on this site. As you would be aware it's heart and soul is FZR1000. It's a beautifully engineered platform, and will be loved and enjoyed for many years to come.
Big Jon, I'm not surprised you like the yb11... how thunderace is it's styling?
And Michael, I never thought for a moment you where referring to myself.
As for Tony's acquaintance, or my friend racerstation, I just consider them individuals with exemplary taste and an obvious passion for the finer things in life. And while I have the chance...
I don't know... The YB11 shares some of the aces styling cues, albeit in a far more subtle way... especially the way the seat section is shaped. And it's heart and soul is Thunderace as well
Nice with its clothes off as well:

Yes Yes I know, I said, I'm building a project YZF1070
Basement is done now, 850 finished and gone...
Gotta get the new siding up on the house.
Fixing the FZ1 up, cleaning up garage and then I might even begin
Yeah, the KB-1 was designed for the Z1 motor (903cc);
the KB-2 was designed for the z550 motor;
the KB-3 (mine) was originally designed for the z1000J motor - but mine's been fitted with the GPz1100 motor (external dimensions are identical with the z1000J, so it's easy).

There aren't any undesirable Bimota's They had a Kwacker engine?
If you still can't figure it out, Tim's (FZRDude) is usually really good and will probably post them up for you
