2001 zx7r Manual
 

Hi,
I just bought a 2001 zx7r and was looking for a manual. I went to kawasaki.com and couldnt find one anywhere.
Please help!

Also, on my frame it says that it was made on 07/00
So does that Really make it a 2000 model or a 2001?

The advertisement said 2001 so I'm wondering if its false advertisement!

thanks ALOT!

man! i have that on disc in a pdf, but i cant get it to work..

someone else was wanting this as well, so i will try to see if i cant get this to work some how.. the 7-R book seems to be elusive.. i can find manuals for the 10, 6, and a few others, but no 7...

and i think they round up on the years... not sure why or if they atually do.. i've heard that however..

dragone, my bike looks exactly like whitehendrix's bike only mine is greyish blue!
Whitehendrix, your bike's color is alot better than mine!
I was thinking of painting it cause I'm not crazy about the bluish grey

Mods: lowered (as low as whitehendrix's) (I LOVE bikes that are lowered)
It has a D&D welded exhaust and a beautiful neon blue light that shines on the ground at night (from underneath the bike)
It would look Awesome on whitehendrix's bike cause it would match

believe it or not, but thats a rattle an job.
i used duplicolor DSM 340 Royal blue from auto zone. went thru like, 12 cans of the stuff tho... its only a 5.5 oz can..

the tank still has the original marblized paint, but when the bike was stolen from me, the p.o.s. that took it sanded it all down to try and disguise it.. all that was left was the tank... the bike was 4 different colors when i got it back.

yeah, i got a 190, chrome rims, a micron for a gixxer, and 3 hole dogbones.. gonna make an air-ride tho.. i don't like when i have a passenger and it drags.. that, rims and the turbo will wrap it up tho!! put the rim ifdeas i'm contemplating in the gen motorcycle thread for your viewing pleasure.

made a whole bunch of carbon fiber stuff, but cant get the pics from my phone to the computer yet..

i'll share em tho when i can!

how does your paint job look up close? look professional? did you clear coat it?
did you sand off the old paint?
I'm REALLY curious on all this I want to give it a go
thanks

rattle can is a single stage paint, meaning it has the clear already in it..

it dry sprayed here and there, but i made a whole lotta small, light passes and then about 2 moderate ones.. the paint hs alot of pearl and a bit of metal flake in it, it pops in the sun..

its not wet sanded or cleared. i just did it as a quickie job so i don't look ghetto cruisin thru town on an otherwise 4 color bike.. lol

i wanna go back to the whole bike being marble tho.. i like the way it looked...

i completely D/A the plastic to 400 grit (i think) and welded the whole area around the healight area on the clutch side, it was all broken up.. once i welded the plastic back together, i re sanded, and primered, then spent almost 2 days with the rattle cans till it was perfect..

you can see the pearl in the reflective portions of the pic, where it looks iridescent almost...

i'm not a paint/body guy at all tho.. so i think anyone with those skills can do considerably better. i'm a motor / electrical kinda guy!! lol thats about alli can think of.. anything else, just ask!! i keep no secrets with custom stuff.. well, almost...
