2020 kaufte ich mir eine ZX-7 R aus dem Jahr 1998. Ein fantastisches Motorrad für die Landstraße. Hätte es damals schon die aktuellen Michelin Reifen gegeben, sie hätte jeden Vergleichstest gewonnen! Auch wenn die Sitzposition extrem sportlich ist, Dich lang und gebückt über den Tank spannt, die Handgelenke belastet und so jede Fahrt in der Stadt von Ampel zu Ampel zu fahrten durch imaginäre Boxengassen mutiert, so entschädigt sie Dich beim ersten beschleunigen hinter dem Ortsschild für alles! 😁 Die ZX-7 werde nie wieder verkaufen! 😎

Habe mir vor nem halben Jahr eine ziemlich vernachlässigte Nr. 7 gekauft und richte die wieder her. Je öfter ich die sehe, desto stärkerr wird das Gefühl einen absoluten Kult-Klassiker gekauft zu haben. An die Optik musste ich mich erst gewöhnen, aber nach nem halben Jahr finde ich, das Nr. 7 einer der schönsten Mopeds ist, das jeh gebaut wurde. Nr. 7 bleibt bei mir, bis ich den Löffel abgebe.

The speedo and drive can go, and the steel brackets, coolant reservoir, and replace those ultra heavy cast aluminum 3-spoke wheels with anything else. Plus there's lots of trim pieces, brackets and unnecessary items all around. Replace the battery with a lightweight gel type. You can easily drop it to 440 lbs or less.

@@elchepo5529 - taking the weight off will help ANYONE. The bike will handle better, stop quicker and accelerate harder. I dropped 22 lbs by replacing the exhaust system with a 5.25 lb Muzzy full titanium system and another 30+ lbs by removing the rear sub frame, all the brackets and unnecessary hardware and replacing everything possible with racing equipment. You can make HUGE weight savings and performance gains (handling, braking, acceleration) by replacing those stock wheels with lightweight racing wheels. A word of caution if you do that though. Those heavy stock wheels played a big role in how stable and solid handling the ZX-7 is. When you reduce all that unsprung and rotational weight it has a huge effect on handling. The bike will become rather nervous and not as stable but can carve corners and flip back and forth through chicanes and such like a wild animal. That's an expert only modification but if your skill set is ready you can turn that warthog into a cheetah with lightweight wheels.

Big fan of all the ZXR/7R bikes.. Never owned a 7R but a mate bought one new back in ‘98. I have an H2 ZXR that I bought fairly recently, all standard except the Micron can. I had a few H2s back in the day so I bought this one to relive the memories, like you do 😊 I also have a ‘98 GSXR750 SRAD which rides very well even though they’re getting on a bit.. I have a few other bikes, but the ZXR is my favourite & the only one I won’t sell.
