Welcome to another ZRX owner, as Rod has pointed out they are a brilliant bike.

Marty...."riding briskly".....is that what you call it :shock: :lol:

I have the new M5 metzlers on my ZRX, they feel pretty good so far, but I really only have had two or three rides on them. The fact the elephants only have toes left is a good sign :D

Kerker is a good choice for the pipe, I love mine and it looks horn 8)

Hey Phil,
I will probably go the Michelins. Wit the Kerker have you got the Race baffle in your or the stocky? I guess the header pipes and mid pipe are the same although supertrapp list the street and race assemblies as different part numbers. They seem a good price for a full system. Look good to.

Street baffle, it's loud enough for me ;) . Eric has the race baffle and it is - in a word - obscene :shock: I think Errol may have even made his own thats halfway between the two on decibels :?

Mines got SFA packing left in it after 40K

Just thought i'd add, if your after big HP numbers - the kerker is probably not the pipe for you. If thats what your after I'd go an Akra, Arata, Ti Force, or Muzzy meg.

If your after the look of the original "Eddie Bike", then the kerker is the only choice ;) .

Im fully with you Phil. Ive looked at the Kerker & dont like them, very old school in the look department. Muzzy are good & are cheap with the ozz dollar going so well. They are on Ebay US for a full system $700 landed here. Dont know what power gains they give, but they look good.>> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Kawasaki ... ccessories

Not a big fan of the std Muzzy system on the ZRX, Muzzy meg's look much better but are loud too ;) The Kerker's will be equally as good value ATM as well I would assume.

One thing the Kerker's are - is strong, like really strong :shock:
