ZRX twists and turns

ZRX stuff, ATGATT
Thank goodness for ATGATT - I survived my fall with a separated shoulder, but would've been in pretty bad shape without the gear - my boot was worn through, my glove was worn through, my cordura...

Your crashed ZRX
Should I assume that was a "before" picture, or was this a rebuild?

First real ride of ZRX
Success: :dancecool: I managed to get the ZRX out for a rather spirited ride this afternoon, with my Son tagging along with the 250, just in case.

Hoping to ride today
I discovered that I could temporarily steal the brake lever from my boys' GW250 to fit the ZRX (which surprised me). I've already installed the new turn signal lens, so I'm ready to get back out on...

Crashed ZRX
I hope you didn’t sustain as much damage as your bike...
My only on-street accident was with this bike.

After some 13 years of medical issues and bikes sitting idle, I’m in the process of getting back in the saddle again.
I’m resurrecting two big bikes, a 1999 Kawi ZRX1100 that didn’t run well...
