zxr750 colours

Post by NickSA »

Hi Guys I'm looking to give my ZXR750M some new paint as I'm a Gobert fan ( I know he's lost the plot snatching grannys hand bags etc..it was riding that impressed me as a teenager not his personality) I'm curious about the Muzzy colours I thought the earlier race bikes had the purple seat unit and wheels but after a bit research it appears that 's not the case is there some where I can see a time line of paint jobs to work out which scheme to go with I've found a few pictures of the bikes but not sure which year is which any help would be great.

Cheers

yeah I like that scheme is it 94 or 95 I believe my bike is a 94 and would like to do it in the correct colour not that it probably matters but thought I'd get it clear which was which before I started.

Plain white Dainese leathers that made him look like Biddendum

Ahh, the memories.

Here is a pic of ol Screamin Chief - Mr Daytona - at Daytona in 94
