zx7

what's everyone's opinion on the zx7 as a stuntbike ??

JT Holt rides one if I remember correctley.. anyone else pimp one ?

I personally think these are the best looking and most classic sportbike design of the 20th century

in motorcycle terms, "classic" means old, slow, and heavy. JT Holt stunts one, but it has the ZX9 motor in it. it is a cool looking bike, though. other than Holt, the only other one i've really seen was on the Wheelie Boyz video.


<------ but i guess anything can be stunted.

Yep, I agree. Love the look of the ZX7, specially the ones in black.

yes, I know their beastley bikes, I rode one a while ago...

after thinking about it, it would make a much better rider bike then stunt bike, and understand why JT would put a zx9 engine in it..

it would be nice to have that as a street bike and turn my f4i into a stunt bike..

I love the ZX7, looks real nice. Only thing is they say the riding position is too upright when you arent tucked. But remember how long Kawi used it as thier race bike, and Yanagawa did pretty good on that thing back in 99 if I remember correctly. And lets not forget about BOSS HOSS tearing it up the ZX7Didn't we talk about the ZX7 that one time bler...My memory is ****ed

A ZX7 with a ZX9 motor is a nice bike. Fast and handles good. Really easy to do the swap too. I didn't know how to wheelie back when I had mine but I imagine it wouldn't be a problem.

I own a 97 ZX7 and it is a very bad stunt bike....heavy real heavy..it is hard to do slow technical tricks like 12's, slow wheelies etc.. i still have mine because it runs and looks good but for stunts very bad. When i got my 900rr everything became much easier so if you are looking to stunt this bike be prepared to strugle just my .02 cents

Re: zx7

I got a 1997 zx7r people can say as much **** as they wish about them im only 145 pounds and I can lift this like nothing gotten to 10mph wheelies some guys I stunt with have f4 and 636 stunt bikes that are like toys I got 64tooth custom ordered pro stunt sprocket with votex 15 front sprocket had 50 tooth in back at first and was doing 70 to 100 mph wheelies like cake slowed it down did steps to it learn and go I got 5 rear tires from dealers for free all used I just blow em up lol. Went for cage first then sprocket started to do wheelies up down up down then as got use to holding it up I got rear hand break then was stunting like pro crashed yea but everyone does way I set mine up after month of stunting I rip it apart to bolts and nuts everything tob tighten everything cause trust me after while they get loose dont over tighten or make to loose. My opinion wanna stunt zx7r dont be bitch just do it show guys up with your heavy bike and laugh at there little toys. Theses are a blast when get use to them do burn outs drift easy has tons of tork be amazed at what can do
