*SOLD*
2001 Kawasaki ZRX1200R
From NESR, back to NESR.
I love riding this bike, but ... change happens.
34,xxx miles (and going up)
MA title in my name in hand.
$4400 with Ohlins
or
$3400 with original shocks.
Clayton really had it dialed in, runs good and strong, always starts immediately, everything works as it should, even better,
no leaks of any kind, sounds great.
As advertised by the PO in 2020:
Owned since 2004 ... not perfect cosmetically, but mechanically solid.
Full Muzzy system, recently repacked. Ivan’s 3.0 jet kit, pods, battery up and out kit, GMD Computrack built RaceTech suspension 2k miles ago (spring/valved both front and back).
Braided SS front/rear/clutch lines, bew EBC HH pads in front, Galfer Black in back. Recent steering head bearings.
Freshly rebuilt calipers up front with all new seals. Comes with stock exhaust/airbox, stock front headlight/mini fairing, stock springs.
These are torquey engines that can be ridden at 3500rpm all day, but still pull hard up top. Freshly rebuilt carbs with all new gaskets/o-rings/needle valves.
Issues: Been down a long time ago (16 years ago actually). Front fender was cracked but fixed with epoxy. Works fine.
Steering lock on one side got bent. Little steel tab. I've ridden it as is without issue for 23k miles. Fix it, or leave it.
What I've done 2021-2022:
Tires (RS3)
Battery -- "BIG CRANK" AGM (Made in USA)
NGK CR9EK
Ohlins
RM Stator Voltage Regulator
Compton alternator chain tensioner fix
Factory Pro extended mixture screws
Rebuild clutch slave cylinder w OEM parts
New front sprocket OEM
Synch carbs w Morgan CarbTune
Renthal Superbike handle bar
Hella Twin SuperTone Horns wired with fused relay
Oil and filter changed twice
Unifilter pods cleaned and oiled twice
LEDs in headlight, taillight, turn signals, and dash
Laminar Lip
... some other items and adjustments ...
Garaged, battery tender, chain serviced often, STA-BIL 360 Marine, original tool kit, owners handbook, two keys, receipts, etc. ... all the usual ...
It cleaned up pretty good. I don't mind the dinged tank or other minor cosmetic issues. I run a tank bag so I don't notice the scratches. And I like not worrying about a pretty bike.
There are prettier ones out there if pretty's what you want.
I've put 3500 miles on it, all-day comfortable for me. All good, ready to ride.
In Arlington MA 02474, with easy access from MA Route 2 or Mass. Ave.
Listing here first. If I really decide to sell it, I'll post it to CL and FB, after removing the Ohlins to sell separately.
