Beauty and the Beast - gman_imp - 12-27-2021
Just finished my ground up restoration of a 2000 Kawasaki ZRX 1100. My daughter was kind enough to take the picture and unfortunately I will be selling the Kawasaki in order fund a new JetSki as my beloved/hated SeaDoo GTX Supercharged appears to have a blown head gasket. Living on a lake I have to offer non two wheel fun to my children and wife. Anyone interested in more pictures, mileage, price, etc. feel free to pm me.
Happy New Years to all!

Those ZRXs are great and sought after motorcycles. Im sure you wont have any trouble selling it.
Cant' you just put a head gasket on your Sea Doo?

I purchased the Sea Doo used from my daughters in laws, never buy a used watercraft. I consider the Sea Doo's to be fast, but horribly unreliable and parts for older units are tough to get "new oem" . I have had it in the shop numerous times and a couple thousand dollars later, I 'm done with it. It is also due for a supercharger rebuild which is another grand as well.
The XRX is a fun and powerful bike which makes it's presence known, but I guess this old guy prefers the silky smooth and quiet ride of the CB!

There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, and a lot to respect.

Yeah, that is one tall lump gman. (whew!)

You've done a great job with her, gman. Sell the SeaDo and keep the Kwaka.
