2000 KAWASAKI ZR-7
Owner Nickname: Furu
We will introduce the ZR-7 2000 model that Furu is riding from MY bike.
The ZR-7 is a naked model released in 1999, equipped with the ZEPHYR air-cooled 4-stroke Inline 4 DOHC engine (738cc). There may be some people who will say, "In short, it is ZEPHYR 750, right?". But, since it has the monoshock, radial tires, and the seat cowl similar to the ZX-6R/9R, which released at the same time, the unique style except for the engine, reminiscent the ZX-6R / 9R naked version that featured in ZR-7.
We can know that the ZR-7 is a highly regarded motorcycle based on Mr. Furu, owner of the motorcycle, who wrote a comment that the necessary and sufficient power, an excellent fuel consumption that can travel over 400km with a full tank, almost have no maintenance required, trouble-free and highly reliable engine. He also wrote a comment about the few obvious disadvantages, but if he says that the disadvantage is the only insufficient loading capacity. This disadvantage will resolve by attaching a touring bag or carrying case for emergency!
The ZR-7 is clearly a low profile model compared to other released motorcycles at the same time, it is not exactly popular though ZR-7 is a cool motorcycle. That is why it's rare to find a cheap and good used model. The ZR-7 recommends for those riders who are looking for an affordable big bike. If you're looking for a used ZR-7S equipped with a half cowl that released in 2001, you will find it easier that still in a good condition.
Motivation for Purchase / Purpose:
I like KAWASAKI. I like air-cooled 4 cylinder motorcycle. This is a rare motorcycle.
Advantages:
It has necessary and sufficient power. It has excellent fuel consumption that can travel over 400km with a full tank. If I will say positive things, it is a rare model, but if I'll say negative things, it is unpopular model. The ZR-7 suits well in many ways.
Disadvantages:
There weren't many obvious disadvantages but if I must say, the disadvantage is only the insufficient loading capacity. It's a good idea to have carrying luggage, but it doesn't suit my style.
Advice:
I do not know the details, but it seems to be the final series of the ZAPPER engine. It is a very reliable engine, almost no maintenance required, and trouble-free. The price is reasonable. It depends on the person's preference, but I love this appearance. If equipping the bikini cowl, it's pretty cool, isn't it? (^^)
