Another Kawasaki in my garage -ZX7R

[chesco1400]

I haven’t posted much since I joined the forum. Figured I would post a pic of this beautiful ZX7R I picked up back in June. I used to have one when I was in the Air Force in the 1990’s. In my mind I was reliving my 20’s my wrists and back reminded me I’m not in my 20’s !

I love the old school look. This one had 5k miles when I grabbed it off Craigslist.

Thanks!  I bought her from the original owner. He kept the bike stock except for a fender eliminator and an alarm that I removed, and it has a green chain. Only “mod” I really want to do right now is find a Muzzy slip-on ...which is proving to be difficult. The bike is almost flawless, 2 very small imperfections, so I want the exhaust to be of similar condition (new or mint).  I’d also consider a D&D pipe but they are equally hard to find.  I had a Muzzy back in the day. After being out of the loop for many years I was disappointed to find out Muzzy was sold and now only offers off road pipes and D&D makes Harley stuff

All the Muzzy ZX7R and RR stuff is expensive / unobtanium.

For now I’m just taking some backroad rides here and there. The bike runs flawlessly and has badass induction noise   I find myself standing in the garage every once in awhile just staring at it

By the way, your GSXR rescue thread was my inspiration to go find an old school sport bike .

If you haven’t watched them already this “budget bike battle” series of videos is entertaining.

One of the first bikes to give me a chubby.

What year is that? Reminds me of the Bostrom and Hayden brothers early years.
