Newbie from Italy

[Davide]

Hi, I'm from Italy and I'm waiting to pick up my ZXR
I must wait September because the seller is on holyday

This is my future ZXR, It's a 1996 and it came to Italy from Germany in the 2002, 30.000KM (18700 miles) on it..




Sorry for my bad english

welcome to the forum!

Bike looks good! I used to have a ZXR int hat colour, looks better with the decals off IMO, but stil nice!

[Davide]

I'm thinking to paint it in green...

I've (more of) a couple of questions...

The first about the headlight..

Hi!
Unfortunately the seller of the black ones was a XXXX XX XXXXX :smt013

Anyway...finally I've got my baby!



1999 with less than 29.000 Kms

[rabidnz]

what happened to the black one?
the one you got looks alot nicer anyway, good work!

[Davide]

After we agreed on the price and we are ready with the documents he sold the bike to another buyer who offered 150 euro (a lot of money,no? ) more than me.

Now I want make my ZXR like the SP.



It's really so hard to find the original SP single seat ?
I've have a fiber single seat, but is not the same..


The seat is the same of the "base" model?
The difference is only on the single seat or there is more to change to make a standard ZXR esthetically appear like the sp??

Thanks

If u can get hold of the seat unit, forks and rear shock, you will then have what looks like an sp. Only way any will know otherwise is if they start looking at carbs and engine internals.

[Davide]

Hi!

I don't want spread it like a real SP..
I just wanna make it like the sp because I like that look

But the SP was imported in the UK?
Do you have any recommend site to watch to find a SP single rear seat?
The drivers seat pillow of the SP version is the same of the standard model? And the subframe under the seat?



Sorry for the many questions..

[RedexRobB]

As far as i know the SP was imported from Japan to the UK, but never officially sold here.

I dont know any website that sells the SP seat unit, only like what you have already seen posted and thats not exactly the same.

The drivers seat pillow or 'bum pad' as i call it, is only on the SP model, not a a standard model.

[Davide]

Hi Redex..

For "bum pad" ypu mean the n°1?


I know is only for the SP, I'd like to know if the seat (N°2) is the same of the standard ZXR or came specific with the "Single seat unit"

[RedexRobB]

yes i mean number 1.

I think the seats are the same on SP and standard ZXR.

[Davide]

ok


I've find this..

http://www.arracing.co.uk/ProductDetail ... 4&CatID=37

Seems to be like the original SP..

Anyone use that arracing product?

Hi Davide,

Good to see you got yourself sorted with a Green one - the fastest

I have original SP seat unit and subframe in my storeroom along with front forks and many other SP parts.

MM!
