[Strika]

2001 "S" model in black silver 75000 klms

Tinted double bubble screen
Crash knobs
Belly pan
Gazi rear shocks
Airhawk
Hepco & Becker panniers and top box
Mr. Wog seat
Pure front, road2 rear

Ridden as the manufacturer intended, enjoyed immensely.

I have had it three years and am not bored with it in any way and still can't understand why it is just so good.

Next mod will be a box to carry Oskar in.

'08 model with just 20,000k's on it. Full Akra, 2 degree advanced timing plate, stage three jet kit, pod filters, braided lines, Raybrig headlight, smaller indicators, temp gauge, Ohlins rear shocks. Then there's the repositioned battery kit, bar ends, solid handlebar cones, sprocket cover, radiator fingers, horn relocation bracket, fork brace, chain guard, fender eliminator, crash knobs, pick up spools, exhaust bracket, Mr Wog's seat etc from ZRXOA. It need the pegs moved further back but is a great all-round road bike which has also done one stint on the track when the track bike was unavailable. It was a fun day embarrassing many sportsbike riders.

[Phil]

Ah yes, one of the mods often overlooked but VERY well worth it - the solid mount bar cones

Oh yeh, I've got a ZRX too, but I'm so exhausted after reading all Nelso's mods I need a little nap. They add up dont they

Edit - forgot top make the VERY italic

[Nelso]

I forgot the Pazo levers, luggage tie down spools and most likely a few other little things that have changed over the 18 months I have had it. After a while there gets to be too many changes to keep track of. Yes the mods certainly do add up, don't they Phil?!

'08 1200, 45000km
Cat removed, foam inside intake snorkel removed. Stock air filter. Factory Pro jet kit. Dynoed at nearly 130 RWHp. Sounds a bit high for me for a near stock bike.
Ohlins rear. Power socket under seat. Pilot Road 3 treads. Narva Plus 50 headlight bulb. (4th one!) Relay system for headlight as well as Raybrig copy light.
Exhaust air valves removed with a Greg Couch kit.
Centrestand, park light on front, hazard light switchblock fitted. Waiting for headlight switchblock to arrive currently.
Ventura luggage, or ZZR1200 Givi panniers with a modded ZZR12 mount. Classic towbar not fitted. Toolbox under seat removed. (more room now)
Replaced front wheel bearings and steering head bearings and steering head bearings on way out again. Wonder why?
Clear indicators and tailight. Clear film on headlight to protect it. Close to stock bike but love it. She is a keeper!
Plans include Moorehouse seat, fork brace and front end suspension work. Fantasy is to turbo it.

[Whickle]

2004 with 57000 km on the clock.

Only a few mods:
* Greg Crouch Fork Brace
* Heavier springs up front (Needs some real work tho....)
* Greg Crouch Block off Plates
* IXIL slip on

Bike is my commuter. Sees roughly 300+ Km's a week without playing on weekends.

Have plans to mod it slightly and add some personal touches to it. First i must finish other projects i have going

Then the ZRX will Go up on the stands and get some well deserved attention



EDIT to add Pic

Mines a 2008

i've been confused about this for a while

did they actually build carbureted ZRX's after '05???

[bonester]

Yep Jeff we got them in Australia until 2008. BTW anyone seen the low km ZRX on ebay (4000km) for $15k???
