Really informative video. I wes eyeing one up on Marketplace, but your comments on valve adjustment and handling have made me think twice. Many thanks 👍

I've got a 2000 model, had it for 4 hrs, same colour as yours I'm amazed what good condition it's in as kawasaki weren't known for quality back then, 30k and running strong, just waiting for a stage 1 carb kit just to smooth out the power delivery ❤

Thanks for the heads up Chris. Good to see you at DTM yesterday 👍

just picked up a 2007 zzr 600 pretty awesome bike

I love my 94  zzr 600 .

Thanks, I have a zx600D from a police auction, very abused with cracked fairings and sprayed all matt black and cost $225 AUD. Your bike really shows how nice these machines can be.

I now want one.
Good and a reasonable price.

Awesome bike and now looked over for more sporty looking bikes that most people will do a short journey before they start feeling uncomfortable
Great fun and easy to flick around  
My first one was a 1992 D model 600cc bought new
Toured the highlands of Scotland  on it a few times
Took the crossing to Skye via ferry
Rode home to Aintree  from Kyle Of Lochalsh in the rain with 1 stop on the M6 for a brew and stretch the legs
Fantastic holss and a fab bike

Great review and information, thank you for sharing this with us all. 👍🏻

Thanks for the review and the maintenance info. Had one for a few years now a 1992 model that has done 63000. miles and still going strong, also got it cheap $1400. AUD. Is in great condition though, but has the 4 into one exhaust system, will try to find the original system so I can restore it to original condition.  Has the same starting problem after left sitting for a while. Am going to get it registered as a classic bike. In Australia if you are a member of a classic motor cycle club you can get cheaper registration.

Best review ever.

I ve got a 1991 myself, good video

Good bikes, successor to GPz550, GPZ600 and GPX600. I've had a couple of ZZR600 and found them to be good underrated bikes. Unfortunately they came out too late and lost out to the CBR600F1.

Just picked up a 1990 zzr600.
Rebuilt te carbs due to some parts missing some little bits to sort it out but hope to have it running by weekend

I had an E7 model back in 2008, I added a Hagon rear shock and front springs, galfer front disks and delkevic cans. It was a fantastic bike and people where surprised at how quick it was. I still regret selling it, I much preferred it over my CBR 600. Great review

Bought a 2004 E12 last night, 2 owners from new, it's in fantastic condition.

Recently bought a 1999 that was sitting for a while. Waiting for carb kit!

Very nice bike when riding it....but...does anyone know how to get the airbox back on without an almighty battle with the ram air ducts? Also it's a shim under buckets set up for the valve clearances, so out come the cam shafts....SIGH.

Good vid mate, I've just got a 96 zzr600, trying to do it up a bit., just a idea, you could put indicators where the mirrors used to be on fairing , I'm sure I seen led ones the same shape as mounts for mirrors

I was looking at that for some time thinking something isn't right with the bike.... Then I realised the handlebar swap and mirrors have moved onto the new bars! hahaha
