Buying a ZXR400
Hi guys,I,m on the verge of buying a L9 model in the stunning Kawasaki green which I love and was wondering what your views are on this era of ZXR?I did own a 92 model and thought it was superb but will I notice much of a difference?

Re: Buying a ZXR400
Depends on the condition of both of them....
One would assume the rear shock would function better on the L9 with it being younger, but it depends on mileage and maintenance overall.

Re: Buying a ZXR400
Totally unbiased view, L9 by far the best model
especially in lime.
Ditto what CaNsA said, and as for the rear shock, I'll sell you mine, it's truly bollox.

Does the low seat height reflect the low intelligence? Easier to get an asshole onto.

Re: Buying a ZXR400
L9 supposedly has upgraded electrics / wiring, which will prove very useful in the coming years.
It still has the ability to make you look like a total knob, so no change there then
One must concentrate on those revs, they are capable of all sorts of surprises.
