Glenn at Allfixed is always a great bet although he's a bit of a distance from Mascot .

If you want to get in contact he's on 9634 1455

Got any pics of your Rexxy. They're a nice beast.

Hi Glen,

Thanks for your advice will give these guys a call and organise a service.

Look forward to doing a bit of riding if the weather would help us out see attached a couple of photos as soon as I work it out.

Regards
Craig

Very nice. Love the Akra and the polished rims.

Is the Akra a full system? I've got a Muzzy meg on mine but have been thinking about changing it up a little.

Glen,

The Akra is a full system i just received the blank offs for the Pollution gear from James Crompton Customs in the US along with a a carbon fairing and tail. Just need to convince myself to cut the frame to fit it but she is in excellent condition and I'm struggling with it.

They are fun to modify, cutting the frames a bit extreme though. There are a few around here with ZRX's, most of which are reasonably modded. If a guy called Phil pops in be wary, he is the chief corruptor when it come to modding rex's. :D

Another question. Where did you get your Akra. Their site doesn't have a hex muffler but I notice there is one on Ebay in the UK. I love the look of yours with the shortish can and I've always had a preference for Akra's.

The Muzzy sounds good but the quality is a bit crap and the headers are very weirdly discoulored.

If you've got a good side on shot could you flick one up.

Cheers

Glen

Gents,

It would be great to organise a ride with a few REX's

The Alra I purchased from England and my wife will still not let me forget that, three weeks after I put it on I was moving the bike in the garage after 14 schooners and dropped it! Minor damage but it punched a hole in the inside of the muffler so we cut it off at the location and it turned out OK. Sounds is good and Akra is top quality.

Will need to get a decent photo on the weekend.

I floated the idea a few years ago on ZRXOA of a national ZRX rally. Never got off the ground.:(
2 X ZRX1200R 4 X ER6N, GT550, 1988 ZX-10, 4 X GPZ250R, 4 X GPZ900R and GPZ750R :) Yeah I like Kawasakis.
