See what happens when I take my old, twin shock, steel frame, carbureted ZRX to the race track. This was my 2nd track day, I learned a ton and had a great time!
My next bike will be a Kawasaki ZRX! These bikes are the perfect combination of old school sport bike styling with the power and handling to ride hard. Such a cool bike even in 2022!

Just awesome riding NitroRoo! I loved the sound and look of your ZRX greatly through the #WRR series, but seeing what you got out of the bike on the track is amazing and testament to your skill and control as a rider. Some series lean angles and drive through and out of the corners ... through the rain too!

You're really rather good at that! ZRX1200 owner here but I've only done one track day (it was in the wet too) so I thoroughly enjoyed watching you throw yours around like a bike half its weight.

I owned a '01 ZRX and I loved the bike. If you search for the word "hooligen" you'll see the ZRX. I've been riding daily since I was 16(started@13) and the Kawi motor is amazingly buletproof. I put 20,000mi. on her and all I did was oil/filter, tires and 1 calender valve adj.. The bike liked to lift on shifts due to it's light front and was super easy to power wheelie. It was "twitchy" at under 60 but smoothed out the faster you went...go figure. It took some time to tune the stock forks just right.

I love my 03 ZRX1200R . The ZRX deserves respect . I don't really race but people on super sport bike think they can leave me in the dust but are shocked that I can keep right up with them. And if someone has the money or know how the ZRX can be sooped up to be really fast and powerful. Mines stock but it quickly jumped up to 145mph with some throttle left. Their are several ZRXs on KZitem that have been sooped up to 180-200+ hp. And a few place 3rd and 7th place on the pikes peak race.

I have a couple of sport bikes and a zrx 1100 and they do seem a little Twitchy at lower speeds but that's the bike I prefer in the Twistys over the sport bikes she literally falls into the turns no effort at all. out of all the bikes I've ever owned I can honestly say zrx 1100 is my favorite

Hey Frank, Got a 2000 ZRX 1100 and for me it seems to be a perfect match as I would never ride any bike with more power than the ZRX because it is wicked scary fast enough!! I have talked to 18 year old owners of Yamaha R6's and these kids are way over their heads with these motorcycles,

Awesome riding!!! For someone looking to get a ZRX, would you recommend the 1100 or 1200? Is there any difference other than power? I mean I obviously would prefer the power of the 1200 but didn't know if true ZRX fans preferred one over the other. Thanks in advance!
