I just watched your earlier video when you posted about the FZX, which made me become a subscriber. My father in law was a certified factory mechanic for Yamaha since 1964. He retired in 1992. He always told me about the FZX ...he only had the motor, wiring harness, and radiator. and had very low millage.. October this year he passed away at 91 yrs old and i found the motor in his garage wrapped in plastic, it looks like new. can you tell me an approximately the value of the motor since im trying to clear his estate, im at a loss as to where i can obtain information,, Thankx Keith
Keith, that's an interesting history on him and sorry he passed. As far as the value goes, it hasn't be run in quite a few years I bet, and do you know if it turns over? And being it would be difficult to prove that it runs in it's current state, it would likely not fetch more than $500. I see various motorcycle engines on E-bay and you may want to gauge what to ask by comparing the listings there. P.S. Finding the right buyer may take a while being it would be an as is sale.

sorry bud but the audio is terrable ...
I noted that it may not be the best. Will work on some changes to make the next one better.
