Kawasaki Sportsbike Riders Club - Australia - Online Forum

Cos i bought my bike second hand and i think the Kawasaki manual could be wrong.

Can some one please tell me the distance C (in the pic). I need to know the standard setting, so can someone shed any light who has not changed their fork settings since new/factory.

A is the top of the fork not including the cap
B is the top of the triple clamp
C is required

Its a 1997 ZX7R-P2

PLEASE

ok.... no answer.

Can someone tell what there's is set to.

I believe it is only about 2 or 3mm stock so make it about 5mm..

I agree with Dave
a lot of the bigger bikes (the 7r my Gpx and 6s I think ) have that distance set at 3mm....
I set mine at 5mm

I will check the ZX7r and ZXR750 manuals when i get home tonite


cheers

To double check I found a zx7r brochure that has a good pic of the forks tops and the dims I gave look about right.. You can see about 3mm of gold fork tube above the triple clamp..

mina

had a look in the books tonite
ZX750 J and K models is...11mm
ZX750 L is 5mm
ZX750 M and P is 10mm

hth

cheers

cheers.

i was just think of experimenting 5mm at a time with the front and maybe play with the back.
