Hey guys, first time post, hope im in the right place!

Ie got an FZR400rr 92, my first bike, had it for about 5000kms. Recently suffered a failed bottom end bear, aparently quite common, but to be honest my own fault ( check oil regularly guys! and i dont recommend yamalube either).

Anyway, the bike is great, went hard and feels awesome to ride. Although I could use a bit power.

Basicly I would like ideas from where to go from here. Theres a few options being:

1. Buy a new bike (dont really want too)

2. Rebuild the current engine (who knows how poked it is really), wont really give more power either, although would increase and hold value.

3. Go for the FZR/YZF6 hybrid conversion, i cant find either of these engines anywhere though or the special crank sel needed.

4. Go for the 600 conversion, but i would need to source a complete FZR6 which would oviously cost as much as a new bike.

So after that rant whadaya guys recon I do?

very helpful thank bud.

Is anyone able to tell me if the 89 bottom ends are different from 92s and/or what the difference in the engines are? If any
