I'm new here.. I went to the Kawasaki Pics page. No one rides a ZR-7S? I'm feeling pretty exclusive.

Hi Dennis,

:welcome: to the community!

I love the look of the ZR-7S myself and would gladly add one to my garage. :D

But they seem to be a rare bike as even the dealerships here in Calgary don't stock one of the sales floor. Too bad as it is a great bike and a fine example of a mid-sized standard bike.

I have seen a few around town (1 million people) but never very often.

Do you have the blue, red or yellow one?

Feel free to add your Kawasaki ZR-7S to the Kawasaki Pics Gallery. :D

Mike.

I've never heard of the ZR-7S, but I am rather new to motorcycling. Is it Kawasaki's version of the Bandit? I ask because I'm familiar with the Bandit and have ridden one before.

The quick search I did shows that the ZR-7S is an in-line four 738cc that puts out about 75bhp. My question is, why does it have about 25bhp less than my ZX-6E despite having a larger engine?

Great looking bike!

Thats a good question.. I wish I had an answer for you (25bhp issue). It is the Kawasaki's version of the Bandit yes. Its actually a little slower than the Bandit but obiviously with the larger engine has a bit more torque than the bandit. My friend rides a bandit and I believe my bike is slighly more nimble as well.

Interesting... It doesn't seem to appear on the kawasaki websites for either the UK, or the US

Kawasaki has changed the name to the 750-S. I think that was effective in 04' or 05' it is essentialy the same bike.

The Kawasaki ZR-7S.Was the last incarnation of the Z750.I think it was dropped from the UK range a few years ago.I beleive it was only sold in the states for a cuple of seasons.Now the states has the Z750S.I totaly different animal.But Canada still gets the ZR-7S however I think this is the last year.
