Another Newbie...

Postby ZRXNerd » Fri Dec 31, 2010 7:39 pm

Hi folks,

Another newbie to the forum.
I've got an '08 ZRX1200R in green...of course. Had it for 5 months after selling my Kwaka 750 Turbo (I miss that bike :( ).
No mods yet, other that a H4 +80 globe in the headlight (if you can call that a mod) and a Yoshi can (from original owner).
Looking forward to some lively discussions with the locals. :)

Ouch..!!! That just makes it hurt even more. :cry:
Just got to the point where the turbo needed too much work and I couldn't get parts easily. I'm not much of a mechanic either, so she had to go.
Still, the ZRX is one nice piece of work and it rocks..!!! :supz: :rock:

Thanks for the welcome guys/gals. Hope you all had a good Christmas & New Year. occasion16.gif

No shame in going from a 750 turbo to a Rex my man!! You will find a few of us in here understand your passion for the Rex for probably similiar reasons!!! Welcome to both KSRC and to Rex ownership. Both of which I hope you will find just as rewarding as I and many others in here have!! :D
