Wow, that's one super nice Turbo. It's great to see a bike really well looked after, and what's not to love about a bike with electronically activated anti dive forks :) It was a major breakthrough at the time.

G'day and welcome, watch out for Gos, he'll be dribbling all over your bike in no time. :D

I must be immuned to his powers hey!!! :lol:

Love the turbo and great to hear of another ZRX owner getting amongst it in here. Although your referee is dubious and does somewhat cast potential doubt regarding your character. However, as you are new and Iwe don't know you, we will of course give you the benefit of the doubt. Given also that you have entered the realm of ZRX ownership, it is expected that we allow some time to prove you are not another similiar to the "donutted One". :lol:

My ZRX has only travelled a leisurely 72,000klms so far, but is probably the best bike I have ever had and I have had more than most have had hot dinners. It still has more pull than a boy scout troupe, Hangs minging stands just off the gas, does a brilliant impersonation of a modern sports bike in the turns, stops OK but I don't use the brakes too often........ the fucking things slow you down, tours like a touring bike, commutes like a commuter, will make a great fist of an all roads tourer and does it all in comfort. I hope you enjoy yours as much as the rest of us Rex owners seem to. I am sure there are some, but I have never heard a Rex owner utter anything other than complimentary things about the ZRX and much like most of us who own one now, you too may soon be an "Enlightened One" and a holder of "The Knowledge". That's right, those who don't own them just don't understand. It takes ownership of a Rex to truly become an "Enlightened One"! :lol: Some may have heard this somwhere before, but the rex is more than the sum of it's parts. 8)

Welcome aboard mate - you will enjoy this place, it is pretty relaxed and a lot of good riders here as well.....not too many cruiser's ...but a couple ;). Strika can make his Rex do many un-Rexly-like things :shock: you would think it was an ex-factory ZX6R if you didn't know any better.... :lol:

Phil is our resident guru on all things *performance* for the mighty ZeeRex. He also dabbles in track commentary at the MotoGP and WSB rounds down south, and selected ASBK rounds everywhere else :kuda: . There is not much that Phil hasn't modded or sorted properly on his Rex - if you do a search for 'Philthy' - you might find a few photos.....he also wears the Road Captain hat on the annual trips down to Phillip Island.....
