83C Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Due to a 'restructuring' of my life, I'm putting the ZZR up for sale. I bought it last October as a project that hadn't been on the road for a couple of years. It starts and runs, has just had a new gel battery and has a set of filters and a 4l bottle of oil ready to go in. There's also a set of EBC pads for one side of the front brakes. Bodywork is tired but useable, a few lugs broken but by no means scrap. It will need at the very least a full set of pads, an MoT, a pair of tyres and a brake caliper overhaul. Pictures: £450, located in Cornwall. catsinthewelder, strangeangel, groovylee and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamworthbay Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Which is something you would not be able to do after riding a zzr1100 without brakes. HillmanImp and Sheefag 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamworthbay Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Nice ride back....Sadly not: It will need at the very least a full set of pads, an MoT, a pair of tyres and a brake caliper overhaul.

Jazoli Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Nice ride back.... its in fucking Cornwall, I am in the lakes and no longer have a van, I have a set of tyres and probably most of the other bits for it as I have had a ZZR11 before (had it when I first met you iirc) and many other Kwaks but I'm not travelling to bloody Cornwall, they are ballistic bikes when in good shape, I loved my old one, it was the first bike I did an indicated 180mph on, and it had a 200mph speedo, which was cool!

Tamworthbay Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 It's the location, I have been asking everyone I know with a trailer but no luck, my triailerhas knackered bearings and one is seized in and the other has made the hole oval so no easy fix. I don't know anyone with a van going that way and it is probably a bit big to post. Shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
