That is bloody awesome dude.

I am seriously wanting that sort of engine work carried out on mine.

Have you posted this up on zxrworld.co.uk forums?

I was going to but everytime I signed up last year my account was getting deleted.

Its still work in progress really. Wants a good carb set up and possibly lowering the seat unit a little so the seat position isn't so high/uncomfortable

Very awesome build... really hope to go into this much detail on mine sometime, only ever manage to do 1 thing at a time

as for nikone seals i fitted those to mine the one failed the week after against all the belief i had they would be ok, kawasaki cradley worked out best even for £20 instead of 6

Nice work the only thing I will say is the tail unit is a tad too long, I think. Thumbs Up

Thanks guys!

If anyone has any experience setting up carbs properly I'd love a hand sometime. I'd imagine i could balance it myself, but wouldnt really know where to start in order to get the mixture right other than spark plug colour

Very nice work Thumbs Up

Two of my mates have ZXR 400s a H and a L both look awesome but I see from this the L does suit a modern tail unit (only qualm is it looks like a ducks beak if you envision it without the rest of the bike)

What a fantastic project, you have some great talent and connections. I have a couple of friends with zxr400s, and they do make me quite envious. I hope you enjoy riding it as much as I enjoyed your posts! Smile

Been over a year now and I haven't really had much use out of her. I think part of the reason is that the new seat position is terrible.

I'm going to go back to a standard looking zxr shape with no pointy back end. Anyone know where I could find a solo seat like this?:
