Craig, I'm glad somebody is out there! Sounds like a great experience. Black with grey looks sweet. I just bought my red 1988 Ninja 750 this past March. These bikes seem to be pretty rare in complete good running condition. I just did tires, brake system, wheel bearings, calipers, carb service, chain service, and mostly went though mine to make it safe and reliable. Then my clutch slave went bad, no biggie...Bike Bandit seems to have it all. Need to replace my fork seals this winter. The short story is that this bike rides out super nice with lots of power and very nice road manners. Boy, does she like to rev! I have a spare set of rear wheel bearing if you need.

Cang,
Cool to hear from another ZX Owner. I am actually doing my fork seals as I type this. I'll let you know how it goes. :)

Does anyone have or know anyone that has an original exhaust setupf or the ZX750? Mine had/has an aftermarket Yoshimura 4 into 1 exhaust that I'd be willing to trade.
I like the looks of the original 4 into 2 and want to bring my bike back to stock, and that is the biggest difference.
Please contact me if you have or know where I can get an original setup for it. I assume that the 87-90 all will fit.

ducktat - the ZX750H is a different bike. It's also known as the ZX-7. Our ZX750F info won't be of much use to you. But there are lots of ZX-7 enthusiasts out there (the bike was used in racing for a long time). Enjoy!

I am also looking for a stock exhaust setup. I have the V/H 4-1, and it sounds good, but I prefer stock. The pipes are the only thing on my bike that are not stock.

Hullo, great page,I'm in New Zealand, have 2 1989 GPx 750's and restoring one to original and the other to a track bike, trawled thru all the Q & A's and got lots of useful tips to refer to except for the one I'm really looking for: Any advice on repairing cracked/ broken fairings? Between the 2 I have a break in the same place

Hui S --- I repaired mine by fiberglassing them from the back. First I crazy glued the joint and put bonding powder to dry it up on the back. Crack only slightly visible. Be carefull not to get anything on the paint. Any surfboard shop can show you how to do glass work.

Just got the seals in today...finally. Hope to complete the assembly on Thursday. Work (my job) has been hectic. No tips so far, but I'd be happy to answer any questions anyone might have. Really pretty easy job. Easier than expected anyway. My seals were not only leaking but were visibly in bad shape. The PVC pipe I bought for "setting" the seals was the best $1.80 I spent on the project. A few quick taps and the seals were set.

Craig, I used the PVC pipe trick on my Norton. Worked great. Where did you get the seals. I'd sure like to see pics of bike!

I found the seals on Ebay. They were 11.00 or so. All I have left to do is put on the front wheel. Can we post pictures here? I'd love for you to see the bike. It looks awesome. :)

Hey, does anybody need a set of rear wheel bearings? I have two spare sets for my 88 ZX750. Cost? Free! Just pay the shipping from NJ 07724 to any of the 48 States(no overseas please). They are new Pyramid Parts and I'll ship them in a padded envelop, it will be cheap!

I could use those bearings. When the shop did my tires, they recommended I do the bearings (front and rear) ASAP. Let me know. I'll paypal you.
