new brakes from the 94 zx9. i have 3 pots from the zx12 but they will have to wait till next year . they will need brackets made. 96 97 zx9's use the zx12 triple pots.

If you don't want to have brackets made you can get the 6 pots from a 01-02 Gsxr1000. They should have the same bolt spacing as the Zx calipers. The only problem is that they only used them 2 years and people are after them more than the 4 pots that the 600/750 used during the same time. I think you'll need some small spacers made up (at least when using the Gsxr 6 pots on a Zx11 front end you need them.)

BTW, tough call on the fender. The Zx obviously fits the curve of the 17" tire better but I don't like the spoiler thingy on the top. I don't like the style of the CB on either. If I had chose then I'd go with the Zx until something better came along.

Still working on it ? Looking good.I'm waiting for some warmer weather right now so I can get back to mine..and wait til you see what I did to the rex :woohoo:

Don’t keep me in suspense man. What are u doing to the rex???

wow . uve got your hands full, Chris.how is the power of the zrx compared to the kz? is it night and day faster?

Podded and piped with a little tweaking and stock gearing it went 100mph in first,as soon as it fuzzed the limiter snick second and hang on.The KZ is more brute force. :woohoo:

I love seeing old superbikes modernized and made to handle well. I have a 2001 ZRX1200R that is getting a zx10 front end and aftermarket wheels.
