I had a 1995 cbr600f in the middle of the zxr's.
It got nicked and the only bike i could afford to insure was another zxr400.
I bought the 1st one for £1500 and sold it for £1500.
The 2nd was bought from a mate on the zxr forum for £920.
Bought a full micron system BNIB for £70 and chucked a new Nitron 3-way race shock on it.

It runs ok, but today it failed its MOT.
Fairing bolts missing causing the left fairing to flap about and the wheels are out of alignment Sad
Hopefully the forks are twisted in the yokes and its not a bigger problem.

really like those bikes. if you guys don't mind me asking, would you say they're practical enough for a commute?

i quite like a lot of 400's ZXR's, XJ's, DRZ's, and VFR's, but i won't be buying a bike for 5 weeks or so, maybe longer, but i'll have a look around at the time i guess!

Depends on how long the commute is I'd say. I'm 6ft and the ZXR is the largest of the grey imports and I start to feel it on my wrists after an hour. If it is possible, get on one before handing over your money and try it out.

Yep- I split my time but spend a large chunk of it in Welwyn/Codicote. Can't join the 400 club though, I ride a hornet. Not seen you about, but then I only ride to get back and forth to uni...

What's the difference between this and ''my'' NC27? Thinking

Except the rear shock and 2nd brake disc on the front end Thumbs Up

I'm no expert, but I believe they're quite similar. A lot of shared parts, similar performance and ride height etc.

Bit of a personal preference thing; I love the super four, but quite a few peeps much prefer the look of the CB1.
