no it's just old
Embracing mediocrity
Rapidly heading that way...
Like anything motorised old bikes reach the point of almost worthless, and the broken ones get scrapped due to the excessive cost of fixing, assuming you can get the parts at all. What's left complete and functioning after that become the classics.
Red paint in particular on 80's bikes always seems to age really badly, and the mufflers on most of them fell to bits a decade ago.Originally Posted by lb99

not many of these about, I spent a day sorting the brakes, oil change, air filter greasing the linkages, desludging the fuel injection, and it fires right up, reg is on hold, I am going to run it though a WOF next month, everything works so it should be fine.
Suspension seems taut and smooth, nice predictable handling at highway speeds too.

I had its little brother (GPz750) back in the day. A mate had a Ducati Dramah at the time and he reckoned they handled similarly. Like a freight train - very reassuring. 19 inch front wheel too from memory.not many of these about, I spent a day sorting the brakes, oil change, air filter greasing the linkages, desludging the fuel injection, and it fires right up

I'd have another actually I did a lot of very happy miles on that bike.

i have a 1999 ZRX 1100 and it is a classic.. ZRX owners consider GPZ's and Z's older than 1999 to also be classic (as well as zzr's, etc)

Que?
I did a poo earlier. It was a classic.

Nice find.
There's an extremely tidy one on Trademe at the moment that I'm trying to ignore.

They had fuel injection and not much else.
Prolly a decent bike for the money as long as you didn't over pay.

Of all the owners I ever met, nobody had a bad word to say about the GPZ range. I'd agree if it is not considered classic now, it will be soon from a nostalgic point of view as previous owners would own one again IMHO. Riding position was comfy and the fairing was one of the best around for wind protection.
I had the turbo 750 production version. I'd have one again.

Hmm. Eventually.
Probably shit loads of them in the USA.
I'd thought the GPZ900r was the collectible one.
No8 Wire Extraordinaire
A mate had one with a pipe and big bore 1200 kit. Think it did like 125 on dynojet. That was massive back then.
I still remind him how I had to tow him into Wanaka with my RZ350.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
