I'm ging to order a set from a ZRXOA member for a mate here (fro champindustries.com). They get a good rap on the site. Let me know if you're interested and we'll see whether the postage is cheaper. I believe that they mount directly to the engine bolts. I bought a different set that mount to the engine bolts off the old "motorcycles-accessories" website about 6 yrs ago but they don't seem to be around anymore.

Everything I have got from fellow ZRXOA members has been of high quality and work as you would expect, who is your getting from Tony ?, I may want some of their stuff (just not the sliders etc)

Bit of a bum steer Phil - the website name is http://www.champindustries.net. The cost is US$70 + postage US$30 to Aus. Phil, you would have seen references to "champs sliders" in numerous threads on the ZRXOA site. I'll probably order on Wed / Thurs.

On a slightly diff note - Phil, just spent the weekend up in the highlands with John N and Greg G on the pre-Tassie shakedown. Brilliant weekend, about 950kms of twisties, beautiful weather, roads and the demon drink. Sprained an ankle when I jumped off what I thought was a 1ft high wall in pitchblack at 1:30am on the way back from the battle crusier and it was a 5ft drop. Shit happens.

Got the spools for mine at Race Replca for $20, mind you i'm good mates with the owner lol and as for the crash knob/sliders be careful where you mount them coz these zrx's r top heavy when it comes to sliding them down the road
Stay upright
Looking for people to ride with in my area or somewhere close.
