Eddie Lawson springs to mind.....

Whenever they do a test of the big 4's retro bikes that one always wins. The XJR & the GSX are better looking, the Honda better built, but overall the ZRX always comes out on top overall.

Wouldn't mind having a go on one myself.....

I'd 'ave it.

In the past I have seriously considered either the ZRX or the Honda CB1300.

i would recomend the one with the new style fairing on. well nice looking bit of kit. quicker than the 12 bandit, cb1000, xjr1300sp. i test rode them all but decided on the 1200 bandit in the end because it was cheaper. but by far i thoght the kwak was better all round. hope this helps. jamie

They are the best out of all the musscle bikes. Mate has a gsx14, another has a xjr13 but they all love riding Burty's ZXR12, even me. Its got the right ammout of power to weight. The otehrs are good, but that just seems the right combination.

Enjoy it.

Top two on my personal "Next Bike List". CB1300 just edging it at the moment but not by much.
