Hi all, I've just got my first big bike & it's a ZX750 P4 bought 2nd hand with 13k up it, FSH All the old MOT's, A genuine straight out of the box example which is now my Baby. :kuda:
I'm pretty active online so I had to find a decent forum/resource so here I am with Thanks for all the info I have already soaked up. 8)
I live bang in the middle of my island which we call England & have been riding a 125 for the last 13 months & am currently in the process of doing my test even though I'm the ripe old age of 46.
Chuffed to bits with the bike I've ended up with.

I did have a sniff about for an Online/downloadable manual for the ZX750 P4 but couldn't find one only other models either later or earlier. Am I looking in the wrong place ?

Welcome!

Back in 99, I lived in your fine country for twelve months. Ah, the joys of living in a pub.

Damn that place gets cold. It's weird ice skating across a car park due to black ice.....great times!!

Where in England are you mate?

I'm from the North Eadt but have been in Sydney for a few years now, got the previous model 750 myself and am slowly rebuilding it!

Welcome and best of luck with your test. Direct access?
