First ride home on the ZX9R!! 

The older sport bikes are definitely more comfortable to ride for me than the newer ones.

Clean! 90's cycles ninjas were amazing when I was a teen.

Love the ZX9R. ... I'm a wood flooring contractor so I get the flooring..... I don't know how you ride without gloves , I can't do it. It just don't feel right .... Good stuff !!

I had the 750 like this, same paint basically and my brother in law had the newer 2002 ZX900RR! That bike was a monster, it felt like a 750 but with a way stronger engine! His was brand new at the time so it was all fresh and they had tuned it and swapped some go fast parts so it really went hard. I rode it so fast one of the turn signals ripped away and blew off 🤦🏼‍♂️😳! My brother in law thought I had took it off! I said, nope I have no idea how it came off but I got him a new one anyways! But yea we raced tons of 600cc and 1000cc bikes and it really came down to who ever got the jump! Only time I could tell any difference is way up over like 140mph then yea liter keeps pulling little harder but by then it’s races are over anyways so till then nothing could leave it anyways! No car’s at the time ran 9’s in a quarter from the factory and only the fastest of sport bikes could run that!

Sweet! I've got 98' blue one. Lovely bikes

That bike is a work of Art. Congratulations

Its the small Jets (Low Idle Jets) probably clogged up, same happened to my ZX6R Carbed bike.. also replaced the rubbers on the carbs and full clean.. ran lovely after that ;o) These bikes sound a bit rough and raw on Idle, but when they get over 7000rpm the AIR RAM makes a growl and you take off ;o)) Always brought a bike smile to my face ;o) My friend had a ZX9R and it was quick/fast even by todays standards, just heavier than the modern bikes..

Irado ! Eu tenho uma modelo 99 :)

every young mans dream

Picked up a 1999 about 3 weeks ago, great bike and ton of fun to ride

People highly underestimate the value of skilled trade apprenticeship. In the time it takes to get a degree, you'll be a journeyman with money in the bank instead of life-long debt. I make handily more than my friends that went to college, but nobody even tells you it's an option, a really good one for some. Good on us i guess. 👍

I just bought one today! Looks just like yours, cleaning it up tomorrow.

I have a B4 1997 R plate, love it

Nice

Nice video my guy, good job on the bike looks fresh as hell.

Just been and got myself a 2001 zx9r black/green amazing colour haven't seen one same locally, absolutely every trick bit accessory u can imagine fitted, had a fortune spent on her , and shes a 1 owner from new , had to collect the bike with a friend to take all the paperwork and history and extra parts in his car , feel like I stole it with the price I paid for her too ! And shes only covered 22k from new every service stamped in the book and even down to paperwork for little things such as bulbs and chain replacements . Its had a break upgrade with some wavey discs and green stuff pads , with upgrade calipers, suspension has been set up perfectly with jst the right amount of slack on the shocks , the bike feels amazing with the steering damper its had fitted , I previously rode a ninja 636 and soon got bored of the power, I can safely say its going to be a very very long time before I see myself getting bored of this one . I underestimated the zx9's power delivery and capabilities with the age and being a carb set up , anyone wanting a usable, powerful, exciting bike with a reasonable budget should consider looking for a well looked after zx9 , you WONT be disappointed... they r getting rarer and more collectable and I think the styling is one that will always fit the road scene.

Love my 96 zx9r ....when she hits 7g that's where I smile

Beautiful !🏍

What are these worth nowadays? For example a 1999 with just under 5k original miles. All stock exhaust for slip on yoshi pipe.

hey man! any chance you will be selling this in the future? my dad had one and sold it for a zzr1200 a while back and i really want to surprise him with one. if not it’s cool but he just loves this bike.

This is a common issue for new ZX-9R owners. Something you would have been informed to do on your own if you were on ZX-9R.Net Forums. The pilot air/fuel circuitry in the carburetors gets clogged, especially on a 49-state ZX-9R when the fuel breaks down over time. The smallest passages are the ones to clog first, b/c they are the smallest. The smallest passages are in the pilot circuit. Remove the pilot fuel screws, pilot jets and clean out the pilot A/F passages and jets until they pass fluid at the same rate. Set your PFS to 1.5 turns out and button her back up. In fact, this is the first thing most new owners of a used ZX-9R are instructed to do if the bike only runs at low RPM on enrichener. Had you posted this video you could have saved yourself $500 with free advice. Just sayin. Lesson learned. The work is a simple 2 hour job that anyone with basic tools, skills and a can of carburetor cleaner spray can perform, w/o ultrasonic cleaning. You could have then spent $100 of that $500 on a CarbTune Pro 4 to synchronize the throttle bodies for the lifetime of your 9R ownership and been riding weeks before the shop got it back to you.

Picking mine up tomorrow with a bad starter for $500+ a minibike I built

Is it me or does the bike sound a little rough on lower revs?

Sto valutando l acquisto di una zx9r del 2002....è una delle sportive che mi fanno "girare la testa"..... Puoi dirmi qualcosa riguardo la posizione di guida.? So che è una sportiva, ma come è? Stanca molto?.....

Moto antiga mas muito charmosa hein

Nice paint job

Sooo are carburators parfect this season? Lack of next video with zx9r is a little bit disappointing🙃 I own yamaha xjr 1200 ( 1995) and im dying to have zx9r just like yours. greets from Poland 👍

Hart to stand, to see you ride this bike without gloves. Just imagine for a moment how your hands would look like... By the way, also a simple hornet getting smashed on your fingers at 200 km/h also can bring you in hard truble.

not judging, but what is it with people i see (mostly in the U.S) riding without gloves and shit man. hell, i be seeing people ride 600's and anything above in a tshirt. just curious, how someone can get on a motorcycle of this size and power without using proper riding equipment. but yeah good video still, nice to watch

I'm picking mine up in a few hours, 2k E1.

Just bought one of these for 900$ from a friend great condition and runs amazing. Steal ?

Come on man. No gloves even? Wait til even a 15 mph incident knocks yours hands down to exposed and worn down bones. I’ve seen it. Why wear them laying tile and not riding a motorcycle. Don’t understand. Good luck.

Nice, one of my dream bikes. I'm in MA too we gotta ride man

You still active brotha

did u fix it?

俺も2003年　F型乗っとるよ、そして、仕事も、あんたと、同じ床貼りだね。

Where do you get your Faring’s

i want one for my first vehicle but my moms probably gonna say no :/

Gloves!!!!???

I love zx9r in 2022

Your revs hanging a bit after blipping throttle? And man put some gloves on

zx9r update 1995 ?

Missing intake covers?

Wait till you get 9 to 11k rpms.

A little flip and my hands are fiat

Put some fucking gloves on kid the I'll listen...

this guy here why want new gears popping

Them carbs are too bad to be making a video man. The bike is super clean

У моего папы был точно такой же

And I am saving money for zx9

I was signing the papers on a zero mile brand new one in 97. Wanted it so bad I could taste it, then the dealer asked for my proof of insurance. So I ran to my agent and when he gave me, a 20 year old kid, my estimate... Well let's just say I changed my mind on the bike. Literally could have bought a very nice house for the cost of the premiums. I think that's what I wound up doing actually.

badly needs carbs synchro

More

tt isle of man

That needs some serious tuning up running awful!!

Ничего не понял, но очень интересно.

That thing will never be perfect below 2500 rpm you’re crazy if you think a carbed bike can rev that high and be smooth that low in the rpm range

Someone offered me this bike for my Suzuki RV 90 thinking about it

That bike have a cylinder faill ... Is not running proper....
