Honda CB CL200 Manual
The Honda CL200 Scrambler motorcycle was produced only in 1974, colored Candy Riviera Blue, with a 198cc 4-stroke OHC parallel twin cylinder engine mated to a 5 speed transmission. It was similar to the Honda CB200; unlike the exhaust system of the CB200, which was mounted under the transmission gearbox on either side of the bike, the exhaust system of the Scrambler was mounted above the gearbox with both pipes on the left side of the bike. The exhaust pipe and heat shield were chrome. The "CL200" side cover emblem was yellow and white. The serial number began CL200-1000001.
The 1974 CL200 marked the end of the evolution of the smaller Honda twin scramblers that began with the CL160 in 1965. In 1968, the CL175 was introduced and ran a full production line until 1973. As many other motorcycles were ever increasing in size, the 1974 CL200 was introduced and marked the end of the line as it was not continued into a second year.

Two years later the title passed to the Suzuki Hayabusa, which reached 194 mph (312 km/h). The Blackbird is named after the Lockheed SR-71, also a speed record holder.

Yamaha FJ600, FZ600, XJ600, YX600 '84-92 Service Manual
The FZ-600 was Yamaha's first true attempt at a 600 cc "Race Replica" with the growing interest in MotoGP Road Racing taking hold in the mid-1980s. Many FZ owners confuse their bikes with the later FZR models due to similar name and body styling. A major difference between the FZ-600 and its successor, the FZR-600, is the Delta Box One-Frame the FZR-600 incorporated, like the one used on the earlier FZR-400s. This gave the FZRs more rigid support, tighter handling and reduced weight. Another notable difference was that the FZR-600's engine was tilted forward to a significantly greater angle, thus providing a lower center of gravity and even more handling capability. The almost horizontal angle also allowed the carburetors to be mounted vertically above the intake manifolds, letting gravity help the venturi, and opening up the door for extensive performance mods like velocity stacks. However, the FZR-600 owed much to its predecessor, such as the sleek body stylings, responsive suspension, and race oriented-spirit.
