2001 Kawasaki ZRX1200R from United States of America

Summary:

Feel the need and prepare yourself for speed

Faults:

Absolutely nothing, other than changing the old Continental Tires to Pirelli Rosso IIs.

General Comments:

I bought this bike off of Craigslist. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it online. These never appear in this area for sale. I immediately contacted the owner and arranged for the purchase. Two days later after a test ride it was in my garage. The bike performs flawlessly and is in absolute showroom condition. Torque and acceleration meet all expectations. At 56 years old it brings me back. Call it a midlife crisis. I'll call it midlife acceleration and loving every moment cutting the mountain roads of scenic Idaho.

2001 Kawasaki ZRX1200R from United States of America

Summary:

My ZRX1200R is without any doubt, the finest motorcycle I have ever ridden, including a BMW K1200RS

Faults:

This bike has been flawless so far. As a matter of fact, it has been so good it is kind of scary.

General Comments:

I came from a 1985 Suzuki GS1150E, which was a seriously quick motorcycle.

The REX is serious as a heart attack quick, handles effortlessly and with confidence way beyond my capabilities.

This bike is very forgiving. A little push or pull at the bars on the wrong line in a corner and you're on the right line.

How great is that??!
