DAEG ZRX1200

I know its annoying that Kawasaki make these bikes and dont sell them here.
But they look awesome, and maybe one day the ZRX gods will favour us.
Some Pics and Spec i found on the net below.
Now some say the tank is 18l..... 2011 specs from kawasaki say 20Litres
Power specs vary too 81.5kw at 8000rpm. Anyone found more reliable specs
Lastly.... if anyone out there is filthy rich and planning a trip to Japan, purely to hire a new ZRX and give it a flogging... can i come.
My Favorite DAEG below.. looks like the optioned model.

Cheers

Yep they're a pretty nice thing. Put me down for a Green one.

With an ageing population in Australia surely Kawasaki will make the big call one day

They were pretty well bagged in all the MC mags.
They all claimed they were a big step backwards from the mighty REX.

Bloody thing needs to go on a diet for a start !!

Hmmmmm....

Old news

Here's a bit of Olympic games trivia...Hossein Rezazadeh Clean & Jerked the weight of a wet DAEG... 263Kg in Athens in 2004.

That's pretty impressive considering I used to almost throw a hip out getting mine on the rear stand (until I bought one of the funky height adjustable Anderson's)

id have one in black... cmon kawasaki... bring it out, the weight issue can be sorted

BARGAIN... brand new

OFF ITS HEAD... few mods

GPZ Style... heaps nicer looking than the 1200s we got

1050000 yen = $12, 764 Aussie $.....

1050000 yen = $12, 764 Aussie $.....

or $24,500AUD by the time it would hit Aussie showrooms

OFF ITS HEAD... few mods

Yep, thats a weapon, posted some pics of it a while back. Fancy spending that much on a ZRX



























Bet he a happy chappy
