Note/Correction: I have it on higher authority from former FZR racer and all-around deep
well of old-school sportbike knoweledge, Dana Nybo, that my previous descriptions of the '87/'88 homologated
models were incorrect.
I had previously stated that the color/graphic scheme for the '87 RT (shown above/left)
was the same for both, '87 RT and '88 RU, models. Having owned an '88 RU himself, he was able to set me
straight on this. Thanks Dana!

Spurred on by our chats, I need to dig a little deeper into how the white/blue models fit into the picture.
It's unclear (to me, anyway) if the standard white/blue models were imported to the U.S. Some sources are indicating
that there were both, homologated and "standard", variants of the 750 imported to the U.S. for these two years (in both,
'87 white/red and '87/'88 white/blue, color schemes). The differences between the homologated and "standard" variants
were likely found in motor, transmission, and suspension specs. I will be sure to update as more solid information can
be confirmed.
