Those that know me, know ive got a 07,10 and a 96 ZX7R, now the 10 is a track bike only, had since new, so is not a repairable write off, so can go back on the road without a prob, but i dont have any bodywork, that got sold a few years ago.
The ZX7R is pretty well orginal, i bought it 3 years ago, and havent done anything to it, other than maintain it.
Now the question i would like to ask, is do i restore the 7 back to concourse, and is the 96 ZX7R going to be collectable in the years to come?
The reason i ask this is... the 10 owes me a lot of money. around 35 grand and is a lot of bucks for a track only bike.
As i want to have a tracky, i have been thinking of putting the 7 on the track, to do that, it would get butchered, if so i would fit a tricked 9 motor in it, raceglass ect.. and turn the 10 into a streetfighter, have been looking ot them on the net.
The 7 just doesnt cut it as a road bike, uncomfortable ect, and not really a bike to ride to work, play in the hills is ok, but i just dont ride that way in the mountains anymore... keep that for the track these days.. old age catching up
The 10 turned into a street fighter would be great i think, it has all the right gear on it now, and i think would be cool to have. but there is still work to go with it, but that can be done on the run.
The question im asking, is should i butcher the 7, or restore it hoping it will become collectable some time??
Just after peoples opinions, as ive been thinking about this for a while now..
Cheers
