2004 Kawasaki ZRX1200R

In Japan, Sport by Mazlow PetosaLeave a Comment

There has been a recent resurgence of “modern classic” motorcycles: new bikes designed specifically to resemble their elders. For some people however, they just don’t make them like they used to. The Kawasaki ZRX1200R may look like it’s from a time before upside down forks and fuel injection existed, but it is still 1,200ccs of carbureted fury. It was the Kawasaki Z900RS before it was cool, stuffing modern (at the time) technology into a retro design.

This 2004 example sits with 10,000 miles and seems to be in great condition according to the pictures. The model is best known in Kawi green but this example stands out in red. A general service including carb cleaning, oil change, and spark plugs was just performed, plus the bike is equipped with a Yoshimura exhaust. The listing itself is rather sparse, but the seller suggests he is open to questions. The North Carolina location also suggests a temperate existence. Motorcycle News offers a good overview of the model for specifics.
