Hi all.. :smt006 .

Been a long time reader of these here forums.

Been after a project zxr400 for the last couple of years and today i finally got 1! :excited ,

Its a L5 model with 31,000 on the clock, OH and a buggered engine! :smt010 So imay need some help from u all pretty soon!

I will post some pics tommorow when its all clean and ready to start work on!

have you been rumaging in my garage?! Oh wait, mines done a little more miles than that. Still has a buggered engine mind you!


thinking about making mine into a naked track bike, flog the spare parts.

but now i'm going back in the garage, still tidying it. just put in a second strip lamp and switch, and a big shadow board. now just gotta tidy all the toad!

hope you have fun with it, keep us posted!

By no means a minter but body work is pretty good, couple of small chips on the nose and small scrapes on the fairings but thats about it..

Just started stripping her down, Got the fairings off, tank off and all 14ltrs of fuel drained (what a nightmare). Got the airbox off and thats about it for today will hopefully get the engine out by monday confuddled.
