Bright Hues, Better Handling: KAWASAKI ZRX1200/R Custom
Webike's Opinion
Here is a "KAWASAKI ZRX1200/R" custom by Webike community user "Kikutagawa". The owner, who had always dreamed of a lime green Kawasaki, now rides this bike with pride after numerous customizations, declaring that there are no longer any flaws or dissatisfactions.
Both red brake and clutch master cylinders are by BERINGER. Crafted entirely from machined aluminum, BERINGER's master cylinders are impressively light at just 270g. The lever shape is designed to match the natural curve of the human hand, and its position can be adjusted seamlessly. As for the calipers, also from BERINGER, they reportedly deliver double the stopping power of the stock ones. The AEROTEC system, which holds the brake pads using just the pad pin, ensures the pads always stay centered on the disc, reducing brake drag. Both front and rear disc rotors have been upgraded to BRAKING’s wave discs, while the wheels are GALE SPEED TYPE-R models, powder-coated in a custom lime green gloss by KADOWAKI. The wave-pattern design of the rotors, paired with the bright wheels, adds a touch of flair to the lower part of the bike.
The vibrant cockpit, visible when seated, is a visual treat. The ODAX Meters shine in white, the handlebar boasts a metallic blue, hints of green peek through the grip’s surface patterns, and the fuel cap is gold with a red outline. Plus, the red master cylinders mentioned earlier complete this colorful ensemble. Each color vibrantly asserts itself, lifting the riding mood. Performance-wise, a DENSO Iridium Plug and an FCC Reinforced Clutch enhance smooth riding, while the OHLINS RWU conventional front forks and NITRON rear suspension provide a more comfortable and refined ride.
