MudDuck Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 I have always rode Suzuki GSXR's but decided to pick up a used ZX-7R this weekend. Was wondering if anyone here has owned any of these bikes and is there a difference in the ZX-7 and ZX-7R?? Ohh by the way this things weighs as much as a Water Buffalo compared to a Gixxer! Thanks.

cudaz101 Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 I had a 96' ZX-7R...It was OK...In comparrison to my 96' Gixxer it was a POS, plain and simple no comparrison. All the same it was fun to ride as are all bikes, but not even close to being in the same league... BTW...Mine was stolen...THEN I bought the Gixxer and I was shocked at the power differance. Both carbed...Both 750's...WTF???? Should at least be close...uh uh.... Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sp1tekiller Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 I'm a Yamaha guy. If I was riding a street machine it wold be an R1 or, ofcourse, the RZ350. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boonman Posted March 2, 2005 Report Share Posted March 2, 2005 I owned a ZX-7R. Suspension, engine, basically the entire bike was different from a 7R to a 7. And y'all that are comparing power, even though the 7R may be a slight bit heavier to the cometition of that year, the bike handled PHENOMINAL. I had NO problem beating, and/or keeping up with the ol' boys at the track. A 7R is a very solid machine. That bike will flat out handle. Well, the '96+ will. The 95's and previous were not so swell. But good for what they are.... Different frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
