Never was about ZX-R's, ZRX's yes - and I'd say having the correct tyre pressure can heighten your enjoyment of a big heavy motorcycle, like a ZRX ;)

This was designed as a little "re-education camp" for people like yourself that are thinking if "leaving the fold" :lol:

Enduring immense pain yesterday, as well as wet weather, my desire to ride my Gazi equipped ZRX was overtaken by the pain. What a great bike. It's the only bike i have ever held in such high regard.

NOT correct mate, I had mine on here when you were still on a ZX12. Do a search :)

Personally love the look and the versatility ... as has been said they just do everthing well.

Taking mine to Tassy on Friday for a little fang around there next week. Won't be needing a chiro and an osteo when I get back.

He had the ZRX before the 12. It was sacrificed in the Putty BBQ.

Without Hoffy sacrificing his ZRX, the stars would not have aligned for Phil to purchase a ZRX and convert all the followers on here.

I fell in love with a ZRX back in 99, first time I rode it actually ;) Was from Picton to the Oaks, remember it like it was yesterday.

Then I had to mind it (the same - much modded - 1100) in 02 for 4 months, that's where the love affair started. Then Tim "lloked after it" for about 9 months while the GPOX was off the road.

So yeh - we got back a ways, the ZRX's and I :kuda:
