i'm about 42 kilometers from my speedo turning over to 00000.0
coincidentally i've recently gone over everything...new brakes & tires...
& when i changed the plugs there was some oil on top of them so full tune-up when i change ALL cam cover rubbers shortly
it may be Hideous but it's been a good Barge!!!

Time to trade up to a low K 08 model, good luck finding one though.
"Hideous Barge" Maybe, but they create huge intrest were ever you go, so they must have something going for them.."Hideous Barge", I never!!!

Met a guy last week with an 08 like mine. He lives around the corner from me and has 93000km on his. He has been using it!

Got 40k on mine. Hope to get 200k out of it.

i'd bet most blokes who ride ZRX's would buy a new one if those stupid cunts at Kawasaki would sell them one FFS!!!
slightly more horsepower & torque with an upgraded suspension & my chequebook would be jumping out of my pocket!...LOL
