Cons: Front suspension dive, sloping seat

Well, alot has been said about this bike all over the web and in bike shops...alot of it is from guys who think they're faster than they are. I used to work for Yamaha and I can tell you, anyone who says this thing is a slouch is wrong. Sure, you can ...

Pros: Price, tons of useable power, riding position, proven reliability, handling
Cons: Lean jetting, off idle throttle response

First off, I am reviewing the 2001 ZR-7S. Since there is no place on eOpinions to review the 2001, I will do it here. The major difference between the 2000 and 2001 model is the quarter fairing. Along with that fairing, you get a multi-angle headlight, a...

Pros: Perfect balance, strong engine, great looks
Cons: None really, but the bike is fairly heavy

The 2000 ZR-7 was my first motorcycle purchase since owning a dirt bike as a kid. I had ridden many street bikes over the years, but had never purchased one of my own. Being a first-time buyer, I was looking for a bike that would be civilized enough to...

Pros: Price, Good Handling, Center Stand, Large Fuel Tank
Cons: Weakish Brakes, Lousy Mirrors, Minor Vibrations

I bought my 2001 ZR-7S a few months ago and have put a little over 3,000 miles on it so far. The ZR, despite having a few flaws, is a fine motorcycle that is extremely fun to ride. I have previously owned a 1996 Suzuki GS500E, a 1998 Yamaha YZF600R,...

I bought this bike 8 months ago. I have put around 3000 miles on it so far.

It is very easy to ride, has great features for the money including the all...

Pros: Comfortable, reliable, good size, smooth ride, dresses up or down.

Pros: great handling
Cons: none

My husbands birthday present last year was a 1991 Kawasaki Zr-7. This year I thought about getting him a newer one and went to try one out. What a great bike. You get the sporty feel with a classic look. I would recommend this bike to anyone. It has...

Pros: Most bike for the dollar.
Cons: Seat forces driver and passenger to slide forward during braking.

As a re-entry rider after a ten year hiatus, I was looking for a mid-sized do-it-all bike. Being 6 foot and 220 pounds also played a factor. Do the manufacturers expect riders to be in the 5'8" 150 range? I looked at a couple of bikes, Honda Nighthawk...

Pros: Powerful engine Smooth Transmission Very comfortable Very nimble handling Easy to maneuver
Cons: Soft front forks Lashes when in/out of throttle Inaccurate fuel gauge Needs warm-up

Excellent fuel mileage

Large fuel tank

Engine pulls strong from the low...

I was lucky to buy a brand new ZR7S 2 years late for a savings of $2500. This bike is worth every bit of the $6K Kawasaki is asking. It is very comfortable, the seating position is upright, the bike has a huge gas tank and gets 45MPG, It is a 750cc...

Pros: Good handling, large fuel tank, center stand
Cons: Lean jetting, soft front-end suspension

I bought my 2001 ZR-7S about a month ago (slightly used but in excellent condition) as a commuter bike and have been very happy with it. It does everything that you would want a commuter to do.

The Pros:

It’s nimble through...

Pros: Price and Ride Experience
Cons: It could use a sixth gear.

I own the Kawasaki ZR-7, for the money, there is nothing better out there.
It's a five speed bike so you won't be efficient on long distance, but from stop light to stop light it's lot's of fun. I've been riding for 22 years now. the last 14 have...

Pros: Powerful, handles great, looks fantastic, reliable, affordable.
Cons: Factory sets idle mixture too lean. It was very easy to adjust.

If your looking for a motorcycle that’s not too big but not too small, then a 750cc motorcycle is a good size. If you don’t want an all out sports bike but still want great handling and power, then the 2001 Kawasaki ZR-7S is a great choice.

Pros: great price, reliability, economy
Cons: twitchy front end, slide forward on seat, carb setup, rear suspension

I ride the ZR7-F1. i love it even though it has it's faults which do sometimes annoy me.
But what is different about it?? Not much, apart from cosmetics and the rear swing arm and mono shock. There has been just a slight modification with the frame...

Pros: features, looks, handling, performance, range, and price
Cons: service cost

I've owned several small to mid-range bikes (both dual sport & street). Last year I went to the Honda Hoot and took a demo ride on a 2001 Kawasaki ZR-7S. I owned a Yamaha V-Star 650 Custom at the time. I had never heard anything about the ZR-7S, but I...
