1994 Kawasaki ZXR400 review from United Kingdom
"Blistering pace and electric handling. Beats any 600"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
The only thing is that the clutch had worn a few weeks after purchase, so a new one of those was at hand for all together £450.
General comments?
Lacks low down torque, but after 8000rpm boosts itself up to a blistering pace, all the way up to 13000rpm.
A comfy ride until 110mph.
Snappy and electric is the only way to describe the handling.
