2001 Kawasaki ZRX1200R review from United States of America
"My ZRX1200R is without any doubt, the finest motorcycle I have ever ridden, including a BMW K1200RS"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
This bike has been flawless so far. As a matter of fact, it has been so good it is kind of scary.
General comments?
I came from a 1985 Suzuki GS1150E, which was a seriously quick motorcycle.
The REX is serious as a heart attack quick, handles effortlessly and with confidence way beyond my capabilities.
This bike is very forgiving. A little push or pull at the bars on the wrong line in a corner and you're on the right line.
How great is that??!
