Personally, I think they look old fashioned, but not in a good way.

I do, but there's something not quite right with the headlamp arrangement on that one. Needs to be more GPZ900R like :-

Or maybe XJ900F :-

Think the belly pan makes it look better but as said it looks all wrong, needs the GPz900/750 or even the 1100 type headlight. That ZRX1100 is just trying too hard to be something it isn't. Laughing

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Thats got a certain coolness about it. Cant put my finger on it though.

The rest of the pictures in the thread look kinda chit.

I like that, except it seems too far forward, and maybe a little low.

I dunno, I sort of like it, looks menacing in a "Wit ye luckin et, ye want nutted?" sort of way Laughing

Can't help think the bike would look better without it and a nice round headlight Cool

Looks ok, mine had the Bikini fairing on it and IMO looks the muts nuts. . . Got to be in the proper Eddie Lawson colour too or it's not a proper ZRX. Wink

Ugly, new bike fairings look far better, if they didn't then the old ones would still be used on the latest bikes. Naked bikes are different style, so it's harder to compare them.
