I've got an 87, and it still runs great. I like the fact you can adjust the valves without having to pull the cams. The handling is pretty good for such a heavy bike too.

We called these ‘Yoghurt cartons’ back in the day in Australia because there was so much plastic on them. Absolutely awesome bike then and awesome now! Becoming quite collectible too. Great videos. Thanks for posting.👍🏻

Popular bike back in the day. Think they came out around 1987? Fireblade in 1992 ended its reign.

[@johndocbikerestorations831]

Yes, this was the first generation FH or SC21 models

I have had success with a mild citric acid on really rusty tanks, it does etch the interior though and best if a liner is used afterwards

Hello, great video. I have exactly the same bike. Had it well over 15 years and never skips a beat. What tyres and size is on yours?

[@johndocbikerestorations831]
