IIRC the motors were damn near bullet proof

The Original DeltaBox! Awesome bike, good frame, first bike with 50% weight distribution and I think the first twin-spar aluminum frame.

yamerhaw, there is one for sale here in NC for $2800 if I remember correctly it was really clean, so much so that I really wanted it too, but could not justify the expense at this time, if I can dig it up I will forward it to you.

I used to be the Yamaha posterboy! I had a '95 FZR1000 which got stolen from the dealership,so I bought a YZF1000 with the insurance money. BTW both bikes were pieces of shit and the reason I went to Suzuki. The FZR blew the clutch basket and smoked the motor and the YZF had to have the trans rebuilt and the engine rebuilt a few times. I kept losing shift dogs in the trans and I kept burning oil in the engine. It was funny because Yamaha never flinched at footing the bill...

Anyway,I traded the YZF in for a 'Busa and never looked back...

damn that sucks, my old FZR was a piece of shit, but i've had 3 R1's that were all pretty awesome, not as awesome as my Gsxr, but never had any trouble with them
