Custom ZX7R Kwaka

[Boob Johnson]

NOT SO NINJA LIKE EDIT: Got Mrs Johnson up the duff so the bike is going! :clap:


No major hurry to sell but have reduced the price to induce a quicker sale. At $5,995 it's at bargain level now :niceone:


KB'er special price, get in quick before I change my mind. She said I don't have to sell it!


----------------------------------------------------------


Got me lovely up for sale, fantastic bike, amazing handling, sounds incredible with looks to match. Has a custom paint job, like no other (candy apple green) get heaps of comments on the colour. Racing tail off a ZX7RR, tail tidy, LED indicators, tinted double bubble, green anodised screen bolts, rear hugger & a custom built can which produces an incredible HOWL :cool: (also comes with the factory can)

Brand new set of Pirelli Diablo Rosso's FRONT & REAR, had fork seals done not long ago also front disks have been machined. Recently had a service, carbs cleaned, oil & filter change. Chain & sprockets are excellent, chain hardly ever needs adjustment. Starts first time every time & pulls hard! Has different sprocket on the rear which makes the speedo incorrect by 10km/h at 100 (ie actually doing 90km/h). Changed sprocket produces better torque.

About to get the reg & warrant updated also. Not been riden much lately due to a pregnant & hormonal partner with high demands lol

Cheers Mike. Sure does pull hard from mid to high rev's & the bark from the exhaust is insane at those revs :headbang: The best thing about the ZX7R is its super stable handling & massive braking power. For someone (me) who has only been road riding for a couple of years it really is a fantastic machine. What ever I get next will have to handle as well as this does.

For sure, they are incredibly planted, the front end on them is great.

I was highly considering the RR but the riding position was just to hard for me around town.

For strictly a weekend toy, I would love one.

But the insurance companies dont like me anymore. :nono:

Cheers Sarge & you have seen this one so can speak for it :niceone:

Yeah it falls into the "muscle bike" category of sports bikes I reckon.

I went for a good strop today out to Whangamomona, probably the best ride ive ever had on her, the road was perfect, not too hot so no tar bleed & a new rear tyre thanks to Pritch. Not sure why im selling it now :blink: I LOVE it :love:

How bad is the damage? Got any pics?

[Mully]

You people - like vultures...
L/h mirror
L/h indicator
Clutch lever
all need replacing (today). Wanted some LED indicators, but they are too much money with a wedding to pay for (dammit).

Looks like the gear lever is bent (must have hit the deck, cos it went into neutral and kept running. I just can't decide if it was bent before) but I think that can be bent back.

And scratches on the new(ish) paint job. I'll try a cut and polish (it actually looks like some of the marks are paint transfer from the road markings) and see if I can live with it.

I'll take some pics and chuck them in the thread I started.

lol. Remember me dropping my RF TWICE in two days? One on each side :slap:

Interesting to note the difference in damage. Mine were both stationary mind you so only scratches/paint loss.

[Mikkel]

Slow market these days eh? :(


Has different sprocket on the rear which makes the speedo incorrect by 10km/h at 100 (ie actually doing 90km/h). Changed sprocket produces better torque.

Unless you've done something quite radical to your bike it will measure the speed at the front wheel like all other zx7rs. The 10 km/h deviation you see, is just the common speedometer deviation - pretty much all vehicles read ~10% higher than the actual speed.

Oh, and to be a complete nitpicker - changing sprockets have no effect upon how the engine produces its power. The sprocket itself most definitely doesn't produce torque on its own. It just changes the entire gearing either up or down. :shifty:

Just keep it - you can use it to escape the constant, unrelenting screaming (and the baby's too).

lol yeah funny you say that. Tis been a living HELL of late. Poor wee thing, she has had a hell of a first trimester. Last few days have been a lot better thank the lord! She still says I don't have to sell it but I think it's the early paternal signs kicking in for me. I'll get another one of course just let this stage of my life settle in :niceone:


ps: with the brand spanking new Diablo Rosso's on it i'm not adverse to the odd ride on a sunny Sunday though in the mean time :innocent:
