EXUP Worldwide

HI,seem to remember some posts on upgrading handling at reasonable cost.I've got a 90 exup seem to think someone posted something on shorter/longer dogbones to quicken steering&what about front end upgrade ie,springs oil etc new to yams so please help a newbie!! <p></p><i></i>

Now some on here had been experimenting with putting R1 forks on the older FZR's but I'm not real sure as to the mods and headaches associated with doing such a job. You can always send your forks out to be reworked. Meaning new sprigns, gold valves, different weight oil, and Ti nitriting. I seem to remember some quoting a price of around $300 if you sent your forks to Lindeman (sp?) but that does NOT include the Ti nitrite of the fork tubes. <p>Tim<br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">Insert Joke Here</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:white;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">Dir. of Entertainment<!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://eddieandthecruisersmc.com" target="top"> Eddie & the Cruisers</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">'94 FZR 1000</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i></i>

Correct; it costs $350.00 and for that you get:<br><br>-New Springs<br>-reshim<br>-revalve<br>-polished tubes<br>-new seals and wipers<br>-ultra slick fluid<br><br>If you price out the service using a Race tech kit and all the labor, it saves you money and puts your internals in the hands of Profesionals. Lindeman has alwya been really good to me and my shops.<br><br>CHUCK D. <p></p><i></i>

If I had the $$ to burn I would defintely go with chuckd's Lindemann recommendation! Despite the fact the 87-90 used conventional forks, they were still very good forks especially the 89-90 at 43mm diameter.<br><br>You could have them tune the forks to your bike + rider weight.<br><br>Hi-ya Andy, also please browse thru pasts posts in 89-95 fzr1000 section as well as tech. Theres been lots said on the subject.<br><br>I ended up installing the 95 fzr1000 forks on my 90 and was essentially a straight swap. On my other 90 I ended up just freshening up the seals and oil. Installing a R1 fork setup on the fzr I don't believe is worth the aggravation when there are other easier alternatives including forks from a 94-97 yzf750r. <p>-John<br>95 FZR1000<br>90 FZR1000</p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p072.ezboard.com/bexupbrotherhoo ... >jjs777</A>  <IMG HEIGHT=10 WIDTH=10 SRC="http://home.comcast.net/~john.stempien/ ... larger.gif" BORDER=0> at: 10/8/04 1:46 am<br></i>

For those with 87-90 models there are options.<br><br>Race Tech Cartrige fork Emulators<br>New Springs<br>New fluid<br><br>If you have a leeky seal, no better time than now.<br>Also, sometimes a new set of steering head beerings could help.<br><br>CHUCK D. <p></p><i></i>
