After years of drooling and never having quite enough dosh, I've finally managed to get a Rex. After (many) years of different makes, I eventually got into Kwaks. Had a love affair with a Zephyr for 5 years only for illness to split us up. But not riding made me feel even worse and her indoors said she'd rather have me limping than moaning. ;D So I went and got a ZZR1100 that needed some tlc....but the riding position was awful....so it went....but I made just enough for a ZRX1100. It too needs some tlc but it's what I've always wanted. It might look a bit ratty right now but it goes well and handles like stink....I'll probably be asking for advice pretty soon Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Welcome to :zrxuk: mate. Nice looking 11 there. I reckon that dark pink is one of the better colours.

why does it have stabilisers fitted. as burchy said, if you gotta have an R 1100 then the dark pink is a great colour. looks like someone has already started on the fettling, black swing arm looks good welcome

Welcome to the forum buddy! my fav colour 'nuff said! ;D ;D ;D ;D and if that's looking "pretty tatty" I can't wait to see a pic when she has had some of your tlc. Ask away on the board, you'll get some answers eventually. YB
