you won't regret getting a zxr mate, i always liked the look of a vfr especially the rear end with the single sider, but they look tooo thin, the zxr has the short and stocky look and still looks a newish bike, i think the vfr looks a tad outdated now?
Don't forget people there is more to the zxr400 than this forum... check out www.zxrworld.co.uk also.

Plus i'm 6ft 2 & i heard the zxr is the biggest of the bunch. I was thinking of the RVF but then i notice i won't find one for under £2100ish.
Hopfully i will try to get it painted in kawa green.
Somthing like this:

Is the black on the rear a decal or painted? Can you get it as a decal?
Cheers.

I picked mine up for, if i remember correctly, 120 quid in all from Ebay. Thats a proper genuine Kawasaki seat unit also. I remember 2 was on Ebay once at the same time, they didnt even get any bids Coulda picked em both up for 50 quid between em.
You can get an aftermarket one for 100 quid from Demon Tweeks, which is what i got fir my first ZXR but they dont fit all that great and you need to cut em in places so they fit. Also they need spraying.
To tell the difference between a proper kwak unit and an after market one is where the bottom meets the frame underneath the tank and by the fuel tap. On a proper kwak SP unit it doesnt, and you can see the fuel tap in all its glory (like mine, see signature). And aftermarket one is just liek the standard part in that it goes right upto the frame and the fuel tap is recessed into the plastic.
Might also wanna look at zxr400er's zxr seat unit, his was 60 quid i believe and he has the number to call.
