Hey Loubre,
Want some links

The ZRX is a fantastic bike, wioth those K's your onto a winner
Also, many ZRX owners here - there is a reason for that - bloody sensational bike. I love mine - heaps.
The issues have been mentioned already, you can see the marks on the basket as soon as you take the oil filler cap off.
Two statements for you in relation to the ZRX, both from current/former owners.....
The ZRX, much more than the sum of its parts.......
The ZRX, best blank canvas for making your own motorcycle.
Plenty of good info available on the ZRXOA too

Phil, you are a nasty nasty man, just got caught perusing that lovely site and well so my missus says, she and I quote "we can't afford all that crap, remember we need a new air con before the wet so don't you go spending any bloody money on that toy!" Hmmph toy indeed! Now as I said sweetly but dear the wet isn't for at least another three months and we will surely have enough back in the kitty by then! What is with them anyway I don't tell her she can't but any more flaming shoes or dresses now do I but ah well looks like it's cold shoulder and plenty of hot tongue again, lucky she doesn't read this section or I could be even worse off

Dont spend too long looking at the very tasty ZRX's on the ZRXOA either then, I hold that place responsible for the state of my ZRX these days..........
Not that that is an entirely bad thing
