That's low if it's genuine. Especially considering the bike was built in about 1989!! They are a pretty bulletproof motor though and I wouldn't expect it would need a rebuild untill at least 130,000 or 140,000! Of course, that is provided it has been treated with respect and well serviced! 8)

If it helps. I have a ZXR750 93 model. It has done 89,000 plus kms. I have owned the bike for the last five years and have had no trouble with it at all. The engine is still strong and does not miss a beat.

Thanks for the help guys, funny enough i am also looking at a 93 model with only 27 thousand km on the clock the price is a bit higher on the 93 I am wondering if it is worth the xtra money for the 93 is it a better bike i will be using the bike 80% road 20% trackday. Cannot really make my mind up the H2 is a classic

If track days are on the agenda, the L's handle a lot better than the H's do. :)
