![]() Right ladies and gents, up for sale is my old ZZR600. 1998 model in metallic purple, the rarest colour. Under 20,000 miles from new. MOT's to back this up. Recent service, including iridium plugs and Silkolene oil. Valve clearances done properly - head off, decoke, re-lap valves, etc. etc. Emissions gubbins removed. New chain and sprockets. Upgraded to CBR600 Nissin front callipers, new rear pads and fluid (obviously). Delkevic stainless downpipes, standard cans have been 'adjusted'. Goes like a scalded cat and sounds brilliant without being offensive. New Dunlop Sportax front tyre, nearly new Sportax rear. Will come with a new battery and I will even MOT it at cost. THE BLURB: Obviously, being nearly 17 years old, she's not perfect. I'm not selling her as such, nor is she priced as such. She's been an absolutely solid, fault-free commuter and weekend toy and I have embarrassed much bigger and newer machinery on the old girl. The only issues I had were the original brakes, which were crap. So I threw them away and fitted the lovely Nissin jobbies instead, which are frighteningly good in comparison! She's comfortable, handles well, stops well and will do 145, 2-up, and still keep pulling! Under 7k, she's a sensible round town bike. Over that, and all the way up to the 14k limiter, she will put the sh1ts up you if you're not paying attention! All in all, a perfect all-rounder if you're looking for something a little less focused as a daily. Also fairly squat, so ideal for those who are somewhat vertically challenged. Anyone's welcome to view the bike and hear it running, but no test pilots without cash in my hand please. Bike's in Eastbourne, by the by. I'm after £1600 or sensible offers. Also willing to deliver for van hire and expenses. Even if you live the other end of the country. MORE PHOTOS WILL ARRIVE THIS WEEKEND! Edited by Gonzo250, Feb 16 2015, 08:37 PM.

I drink too much, I swear too much, I ride too fast and I crash too often. It is a universal impossibility for me to leave my tools alone and my bikes standard. 'It must go faster!!' | |

Cheers. It's going for an MOT soon, probably end up in MCN and wherever else for more money, hopefully tempt the fair weather fairies. I'll do deals if anyone on the forum does decide they want it though. |
