Im currently looking at a zxr400L as a race bike and dont really know much about zxr's.

Are there any common problems or things that i should look out for while owning one?

They do shit themselves.....


They are fast while they do it...

hmm..the last guy on here that raced a ZXR or ran them..that I can think of.

rvfhonda - MIke Dorey
Simmo - James Simpson
nc23rider - Steve - he has just got one..
Routy's husband rides one, very fast too...

This one seems to have a nice 62bhp so shouldnt be too highly tuned, or running too close to the limit.

Had mine at 77-81bhp (depending on who's dyno it was on) with .5 oversized pistons and in 8 years of racing at the pointy end of the field, had 2 engine failures.
Awesome bike, no real problems with them. Just keep on top of oil changes etc.
They are lively when ridden hard and move about a lot.
Personally i'd recommend one as a track bike to anyone.
