zxr400 in a box....... or three

Post by jwalker80 »

I have recently bought a zxr 400 already stripped down for £500. i plan to get it as mint as i can, while spending as little as possible as i am already £500 over budget!! I will be cleaning and painting everything!! and just hope that everything is there when it comes to being built up.
