Our local dealer has been very good to me and will do mail order. They don't have a toll-free number, though. The shop is the Kawasaki Sport Center in Little...
Say Marty, if you have not seen these races, they are pretty neat, Its a free for all drag races ok by the city. It's a Black Group of riders that put it...
Ben, I have dealt with Carrollton Kawasaki for quite some time. Their service is excellent, prices outstanding and they care about their customers. Try...
Al, I've heard of them and almost made it there this year during Bike Week. Was going to attend the July 2nd outing, but had to work that day, didn't get home...
unfortunately it was cxl due to wx--last year as I was driving to Dayton via 92 out of Deland and we saw some signs indicating bike drag races, some were knock...
Al, On the carbs -- if they're not really bugging you, I would prefer to wait until it cools down a bit. Just ain't no fun working on a hot bike engine out in...
I'm really glad to hear that there are those that are 'organinzing' street racing. If I'm not mistaken, there was a gentleman by the name of Wally Parks who...
just came back from a nice ride out to the LOOP in Daytona, would have stayed longer- toooo many dark clouds looming, my ZRX just hums-lov it- just has that...
Al, You forgot to mention that the rain we have been having is not the garden variety "sprinkle", but the much more forceful "Gully-washer" style of rain. I...
I have just put my Zrex down from the lift after doing a valve clearance check (3 intakes from 2.65 to 2.70, 1 exhaust from 2.70 to 2.75). After I performed...
Just read about a new sports-tourer coming out from our friends at Kawasaki. Actually, I supposed you could call it a SPORTS-Tourer as it is reported to be a...
Marty, I would look forward to see a 160bhp made into the ZRX-that would rock.. question?? has anyone used the new spark from NGK called a "Iriduim" it is...
Hello All, New member here, recently traded my '03 ZX7R for a '97 ZRX1100 and a few notes. The ZRX has 8500 miles on the clock, I don't have full history...
Hello All, New member, 2nd message, my newly aquired '97 ZRX1100 is fitted with a Dunlop 204F 120/70 front - good condition and a Bridgestone BT020 180/55 rear...
Yeah, you should do them. Most owners find a few to be tight on the first check, then they hold quite well for the remainder of checks. They are a bucket and...
That 204 is not the original tire. And the 180 rear isn't even the right size tire for the 1100. I know it will sound like a waste of money but I would burn...
I have an '03 ZRX and did the valve clearance check at 12,000 miles. On mine I found I had 3 intakes (out of 8) and 1 exhuast (out of 8) that were loose. The...
There's one problem with this. Tight valves won't clatter. Tight valves are worse than loose valves. Loose valves just cause a slight loss of power due to...
Hello Jim / Charles, Thanks for the info, must say my previous experience leads me to agree with Jim re the danger of tight valves going unnoticed. Reckon I...
Hello Jim, Thanks for the info, I know 170/60 is/was the standard size for the 1100 rear though it seem that most people change it for a 180/55. Good news that...
Well, the deal with changing the 170 for a 180 is that the 1100 has a narrower rim than the 1200. So its reall not meant for a 170. You can get it on, but it...
Execellent condition. Garage kept, my baby has been pampered. I love the bike, but I want to get the son and I a trail bike, and I just can't afford to buy...
Hello Jim, I will check the rim sizes, it can't be more than half an inch narrower than my ZX7R which ran 190/50 so 180/55 should be fine, also the tyre looks...
i stole that pic from some taken at the recent zrx rally in Eurica Springs Arkansas. Porbably a few here that were there. I was unable to make it but some of...
