hi all,

newbie here, from Philippines. I recently acquired a ZR400D (Xanthus).
is it true that the engine of ZR400D is the same as ZXR400? i am new at this and i need inputs about it.
got a couple of questions about it as well.
dropped my bike a few weeks ago and the generator cover got busted. if both engines are the same, can i also use the generator for zxr400 to fit my xanthus? what is the exact model of the zxr400?
last question is, where can i get one that can be shipped in asia?
tried checking japanese website but i can't understand some of their processes in terms of ordering online.

thanks in advance...

more power to zxr400!!!

Thanks skullie. I downloaded the H and L models of here before I picked the bike up. How relative is the H manual on our bikes though? Motor is similar but as far as I can tell that is about it.

best bet is to get a mate who can read japanese to translate for you, comercial translators charge ~8p per character...soon builds up.

Luckily my backwarmer (the missus) is fluent in Japanese. Why only she would know. Probably had a Japanese boyfriend sometime

140/60 18 you will need to get shipped from Europe

If you can squeeze a slightly higher 140/70 18 you can get them from demon tweeks, about £100
