I have now got my new ZXR400. I couldn't wait any longer and save the money.

It's an L1 with 33,000 miles on the clock and in good condition for it's age. The good bit 's on the bike are it already has braided hoses and almost new disks. The bike is generally in good condition overall with hardly any rust. Any rust there is I will get rid of anyway. The bike is a UK bike and the engine sounds sweet. It has the usual clutch rattle but when you pull the clutch in it has no other knocks or rattles. This one also has Micron pipe that hasn't got a dent in it

It has Dunlop D204's on it with loads of tread left and some chicken strips I need to get rid of!! Not sure what the 204's will be like?

The bad bit's, the bike is going into the garage to get the carbs done again as they are letting in air ( in the wrong places ) and causing the bike to run like a bag of toad. I noticed it a bit on the test ride but as all else was good wasn't too bothered. Also need to get some new wing mirros, which are already on order from Ebay and a new seat as she took the padding out to touch the floor.

nice to see you got one in the best colour scheme!

yeah, fastest colour scheme they ever made!

Swapsies?


I've had a bit of a play with the pipe on your old one, replaced the baffling, sounds really smooth and sweet now.
Also have to admit I had a run up and down the road with no pipe on.
Holf yuck!

Am actuall thinking when I get it resprayed to get it done completely original colours.

I now have the wing mirrors, new seat, new valve caps (yeah, I got the Kawasaki ones which will no doubt be nicked first time I leave the bike in town!!) and once I finish my skydiving course then I will get the bike into Nicks to get the carbs done. Should be on the road by the 1st Oct.........Great, just ready for winter.

Should be picking the bike up tommorrow (Sat 25th)

Had the valves and shims done, all new filters, carbs done and new brake pads all round!! Can't wait. Got my new leathers and some nice new knee sliders to get worn in

FINALLY GOT THE BIKE BACK!!!

It's had a full service done and came to a total of £350. It runs like a dream and I have just had an hour on it before I got too cold. Managed to get both knees down again so mega happy!! Just hope we keep this weather a little longer before it get's really bad.

Result !

Was out on my ZRX today before the rain came back

Hoping next week brings you more sunny days

The bike as it is now!! Love it that I make the ZXR400 look like a ZXR750!!

I'm even almost smiling in this one
