Very nice! It says Keihin carb conversion? Wonder if that means FCR's? If so, I wonder if it had the correct tank to clear the throttle linkage? Looks to have an Ohlins rear, nice addition. Original mufflers. Folding footpegs, did the US market DB4's come with folding pegs? _________________ '99 DB4 #104, '96 SB6 #1165, '94 DB2 J #652, '99 DB4 #088, '08 VTX1800, '93 ZXR750R M1, '95 ZXR750, '95 ZXR750 Race Bike, '94 CBR400rr NC29 Race Bike, '94 CB250, '49 BSA C10 250, '61 BSA A10 650, '89 ZXR750, '91 Ducati 851 |

Wasn't there some kind of "race" option that came with a different tank and the FCRs?
Unsure how to tell about the tank. |

Mine has folding pegs and Ohlins rear shock(standard) as well as the corse kit. The corse kit was Kiehn carbs, modified tank, and Ti corse pipe. I think the tank mod shortened it to clear the cone filters fitted to the carbs. The db4c had the corse kit and a 944cc kit installed. _________________ 02 aprilia RSVR Mille, 02 aprilia SL1000 Falco

The special Corse version that came from Bimota had Ohlins rear, Corse muffler, FCR39's and a special fuel tank... the bottom of the tank was slightly different to the standard DB4 tank to give clearance for the side pull throttle linkage of the FCR's. _________________ '99 DB4 #104, '96 SB6 #1165, '94 DB2 J #652, '99 DB4 #088, '08 VTX1800, '93 ZXR750R M1, '95 ZXR750, '95 ZXR750 Race Bike, '94 CBR400rr NC29 Race Bike, '94 CB250, '49 BSA C10 250, '61 BSA A10 650, '89 ZXR750, '91 Ducati 851 |
