BUILD 4 - ZRX 1200 R

THE REX

This one is easy. Buy a good condition, low mileage ZRX1200, clean it up and change out some stuff, and there you have it. OK, so there's a bit more to it than that and it's not a cheap build either, but the result is a powerful retro that handles as well as a modern ride.

Here's the list of stuff done;
