Hi Folks, I do not have a ZRX any more so having a clear out of my surplus project parts. Mostly new factory parts in the packaging with parts labels etc. Click here and scroll down to see pics or get in touch on here https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/markfturner/m.html?item=233647584853&rt=nc&_trk...

Hope so guys.
Have invested a fair bit of love and part hunting into that one.
First water cooled four stoke bike that I have worked on - so that was an eye opener after older Zeds.

Cheers Dave
