Brilliant ingredients, but not the best presentation or end result!
The ZXR400 is great, an early harder, more aggressive model, even better! They got the colours right too, green, white, and Blue! Proper tasty!
What i dont like is the looks of the rear end, and particually the heavy looking low tech rear axle and suspension set up. For such a sexy, brilliant machine as a ZXR, it should have had a double wishbone rear suspension, with forged alloy arms, and a pair of Ohlins remote reservoir shocks etc. Add a set of light weight rear discs, with 4pot calipers, and a small centre mounted diff with lightweight magnesium casing! A bike like that should deserve only the best you can get! |

Wouldnt bother with that one . when it fell out of the ugly tree it must have hit every branch on the way down ,
also if you look at the pic of the front tyre you will see its worn down a lot more on one side than the other , which means that the back axle has been put on wonky and it won't handle tidy,
and as the axle is welded on it means major surgery on the chassis to fix it
another thing i noticed is that the Diff is from a Bedford Rascal , these vans are low geared as feck so the trike would be screaming its nuts off to maintain a crusing speed .
I've built a good few trike frames/chassis in the past so tend to notice these things  ____________________ GSXR 1100 StreetFighter |
