first zxr to buy

A spin off from a previous post by RobB, I have created a forum so we can identify which model ZXR400 you have and to show different variations of colour schemes. Please feel free to post pictures to help others identify their ZXR400's but please keep them to factory std releases.

Ciao Tony, it doesnt look all that bad, would be easy to fix the external damage/faults, i would be tempted at that price. Take a new battery with you and at least check that the engine will turn over when you press the starter button, and listen for any bad noises from the engine. The clutch will probably make a bit of noise...thats normal, but the engine should just make normal mechanical sounds, any loud banging, grinding etc is not normal.
