New ZR7!

#1 Unread post by camthepyro »

I went to the dealership today and put a down payment on a 2000 ZR7, with 13k miles. I'll be picking it up Saturday, so pictures then.

The bike is gorgeous. No damage anywhere. It doesn't look like it's ever been layed down, or in any accidents. The shop I'm buying it from is putting new tires, a new battery, oil and other fluids in the bike, as well as doing any repairs it might need after it's inspection (they evidently just got it in).

Here is a picture of the actual bike from their website:

I can't wait for saturday!

The ZR7 is a great all around bike. The engine is as solid as they come. Basically the same powerplant that was introduced on Kaw's first 750 four cylinder in 1980. Fortunately, they didn't leave the suspension in the '80s. It handles quite nicely.

Good choice!

The ZR7S has fairings I believe, at least in certain places, but those are hard to find. You can get aftermarket fairings, but they're very hard to find. I like the look of a naked bike anyway, it reminds me of my Nighthawk.

I'm a cruiser kinda guy, but that's a nice looking bike.

That's exactly the sorta thing I'd buy if I wanted something sportier.
