Yo!

Postby Byproduct » Sun Mar 16, 2008 10:49 am

G'day to you all, I'm new to the forum but a long time Kawasaki sportsbike fan. I hate to admit it but I used to lust after a Fireblade when I first got into road bikes but that all changed when my neighbour bought a new ZX7R in `96. My blood has been green ever since! I'm 28, live in Hobart & ride a recently restored / modified L1 ZXR750. I also have an `85 GPZ600R which I will be restoring over winter as streetfighter project. Look forward to gaining from the wisdom of other owners & sharing my experiences with ya'll.

Cheers,
Boyd.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys.

I've got some pics of my ZXR uploaded at: http://s255.photobucket.com/albums/hh138/bypr0duct/ & I've attached a list of all the work done to my bike over the last 10 months.

I've grown really attached to this bike over the years & decided to do a no expense spared rebuild rather than sell it & buy another bike. All work was done by me except the forks being overhauld & new swingarm bearings fitted by Reds motorcycles. Oh & its got a 7R pivot sleeve which saves a heap of weight & I just fitted the race tail unit this weekend which saves heaps too, I really want to get it on some scales & see how much it has shed. I haven't paid much attention to the paint & bodywork because I have a 7R race fairing I'll be painting green & fitting soon. Theres still plenty left to do!
