If the kms are correct its pretty good, the ZX4 is a pretty strong bike and very similiar to the ZXR400H. Engines arent too bad but like anything if its been trashed, who knows. See if you can take it to a bike shop for an appraisal, $2K is OK buying for one of those. Its not original paint, but looks OK.

That 'alucardious' guy on trademe seems to have a hobby of asking lots of questions on auctions. Followed by bidding until it is $10 below the reserve.
