Most of the way to fixing the ZRXes main flaw....

Post by bonester »

First Aussie ZRX with centrestand. It isn't a ChuckC stand from US. It is one I have been working on. Only partly finished but well on the way. :lol:

For me it REALLY shits me. Only other flaw is a couple of litres more in the fuel tank wouldn't hurt, and that is on the drawing board. That swinger in your avatar looks awesome- is that going to be fitted to yours???????

I wouldn't say Major Flaw either, but certainly something lacking. Not like the ZRX is going to notice another 1.5 kg of centrestand hung down there, & I totally agree on the lack of fuel capacity too. BTW centrestand looks good thus far :kuda: .

All done now. Fair bit of work but it works well. Easy to lube and adjust chain. What I used to do with my ZZRs was keep chainlube under the seat and lube the chain at every fuel fill. Can now do it easily with ZRX. :lol:

Wow!...off topic i know, but that looks very nice Phil......different to most others i've seen.....details?

With the stand, i've never really missed it on the ZRX.....plus the bike looks better without it i think :)
Nice job though..

Not sure yet how to go about manufacture. I am hoping to sell the design rather than manufacture myself. :)
