I’m 55 and it great to see you restoring this lovely old gal. Fantastic bike back in the day. ❤️🤘

@andre037 Год назад

LOl I'm 56 and when these came out wanted one soo badly but had to settle for a s/h GSXR750K which I loved. This was a wonderful period of bikes and cant believe they are now vintage, how quickly time moves!

@nickrider5220 Год назад

Doesn't look too bad Chopsy, you always get superficial corrosion, some bits can be cleaned up, other bits you clean and recoat. It's good someone seems to have serviced it, better for the internals, gets rid of moisture within the engine 👍 Can't wait for future installments 🙂

@HalfdeadRider Год назад

I'll be surprised if that cam cover is able to be saved, but we'll see 🤞 Some parts will be restorable, others not so much. I was surprised how bad it was if I'm honest as it was in a shed, obviously not a good one. My Y2k ZX9r was sat up for five years and had a lot done to it but was not nears a rough, I know it's half the time this was sat up, but it was outside 😂

@nikolasharvey Год назад

Yes!!! At last chopsy a resto project,wasn’t sure what I’d see first,zxr or hypermotard.Absolutely love your resto vids.Surface corrosion always looks bad,I done an RD years ago and that had rot in the frame and swing arm but got it professionally welded and repaired and powder coated,look great afterwards.

@LambChopRides Год назад

OK thats promising then! I was quite worried

@joeyvnck7130 Год назад

Nice bike , i love old ZXR's. I guess you have a bit of a mix . Radiator , airbox and fairing are 89 H1 , swingarm is H2 , tacho is L model and not sure about the oil filter 😅. And the bolt in the upper engine mount was a race track mod , too much vibration for road use. Gonna keep an eye on this one 👍.

@LambChopRides Год назад

yes seems its a miss match.. think its listed as an H2 when you do a reg search.. Maybe had some damage at the frontend and H1 parts were used...

@joeyvnck7130 Год назад

Frame looks like H2 . H1 and H2 have slightly different exhausts , H1 fits H2 but you have no more access to the oil filter , maybe that's why you have an external filter.

@S.and.K-Works Год назад

I got an h2, and definitely got a cartridge filter not spin on, different sump on here too.but it’s an H motor with the belt.I’m gonna keep an eye this it’s a bit of a mixer. I reckon it’s fallen on its front. Check frame straight before spending!

@colinmaddocks9352 Год назад

I used to sell ZXR parts on ebay but 6 months ago deleted my account. I still have quite a quantity. By the way that coolant reservoir sometimes get sold for £200 if you have the rubber band to it.

@stevecade857 Год назад

@@LambChopRides Great stuff. It needs the LCR style treatment. The ZXR though should stay as original as possible.

@ticthedog6095 Год назад

Looking forward to the rest of the restoration. I do a lot of start ups on old bikes, the first job is to quirt oil into the bore, remove the cam cover so you can refill the oil by pouring it over the cams, then crank the engine with the spark plugs out, before attempting to start it. Just use a remote fuel tank hung from the ceiling, then there will be no need to use the fuel pump which shouldn’t be operated without fuel as it destroys them. With the carb cleaning concentrate on the pilot jets as will have to hold the bike at 3-4,000 rpm to keep.

@brankog7 Год назад

Do you squirt 2 stroke oil into the cylinders ?

@ticthedog6095 Год назад

@davidbarton7463 Год назад

Looking fwd to seeing your progress with this one, I went through the same experience in June this year when I restored my CBR400RR which has been sat for 20 years, and thankfully no big surprises that weren't expected. Rides even better than I remember after fitting sticky tyres and replacing fork seals and oil etc. Good luck with the 750.

@trevorphillips3055 Год назад

Projects like this have ended up being my most enjoyed bikes. I have two 1997 bikes I've bought back to life, the most recent a vfr750 (standing for about 8yrs) which I use fairly regularly. Molasses works well on rusty fuel tanks, make a solution mixed water and leave to soak. A tip picked up from Mr Millyard 😊. Look forward to seeing the progress, I think this bike is recoverable, and you'll really enjoy it once complete. It's a great thing to do.

@HalfdeadRider Год назад

Treacle? really! Allen is genius so if he say's it's good, it's good 🤣🤣

@AdamForeman Год назад

You git! You left it on a cliffhanger! Thank you for trying to restore the ZXR 750. I remember it when it first came out. I went down to the local Kawasaki dealership to take a look at a ZZR 1100 and I almost broke my neck rubbernecking as I went past one on the shop floor. My pants became moist as I looked over it, completely forgetting for a while why I came to dealership in the first place!

@HalfdeadRider Год назад

A lot of people think carbbed bikes don't have fuel pumps, but most do, especially larger capacity bikes. It will run without one, but the low pressure pump (2-3psi) just makes sure it is fed enough fuel so it doesn't bog down when you open up the throttle. Put that camera down the sparkplug holes to check in there, put a little oil in them too to soak around the rings before trying to turn the engine over, and maybe do that manually the first time.

@LambChopRides Год назад

unfortunately the camera was only with me for one day to check the tank or would have stuck it everywhere hehe.

@Dan_B_Rides Год назад

@steveball2307 Год назад

Think giving it a thorough scub down and clean might make you more optimistic, much of the cr.... grime will be superficial and you might be surprised at it's actual condition. Whatever the case, it'll need a strip down so a parts washer might come in handy! 😀 Really looking forward to seeing it progress.

@MHLivestreams Месяц назад

I had one of these, but H1 ,the red/grey/black colour scheme with a J2 engine. Removed the fairing, and it went pretty well! Could take a gsxr1100 in a street race from the lights, I only weighed about 9 stone then. Good times.

@twinwheels4717 Год назад

I've got a GPZ900 that I've been restoring for years that was in the same state as this chops, the engine is very similar. Internally it was spot on after a strip down. That pipe under the carbs was the same on mine but it was just cosmetic, all of the metal coolant pipes were shite but only one of them was unsalvageable. It's not as bad as it looks.

@jeremyr62 Год назад

Tank looks good to me. That's just surface rust. Fill it with a chelating rust remover like Evaporust and it will be as good as new.

@adolfshitler Год назад

I've been renovating one of these well, a "Zx7R" for over ten years. 5% left to go!

I use citric acid and water and heat the water up with a camping electric water boiler. Approx 6 -8 hours. then rinse and hairdryer dry. immediately wd40 and cloth dry. It'll look like new afterwards. then just keep the tank full of petrol allways. It'll stay beautiful for years after! Do not coat it with the sh.. or youll have trouble after 1-2 years. Cheers mate

@GPR111 Год назад

Good seeing a bike or car being brought back to life and given a new beginning. I have a VFR800 fi that I recommisioned after 5 yrs standing in a back garden, no wd40, no cover nothing. The guy simply lost confidence literally overnight and stopped using it, even starting it up and running the motor. It consumed a ton of money to get everything as it should be. when I dropped the oil it was brown and the consistency of dishwater.... I used a cheap semi synth for initial start and then changed it again immediately with another new filter for a quality branded oil

Talk about leaving us on a cliff hanger chopsy!!!!!! That bike looks pretty decent to me. The tank will clean up, look into electrolysis procedure, it’s a doddle to do and has mega results, also that scope you have borrowed, pull the plugs out and fire it down into the cylinders, it’ll give you a good idea what’s going on inside there without stripping it! I’m a 3 decade career tech so seen my fair share of wonky motors, but all the signs are looking good on that old girl! I’m well gonna be following this build! Have fun chopsy!!!!!! 👍👍👍

@deanzaZZR Год назад

I bought a 1987 Kawasaki GPX-750R in the mid 1990s in Japan. Although it was used, it was pristine and had less than 10KM on the clock. It sure seemed fast at the time. There could be some connection engine-wise although a few Google searched suggest maybe yes, maybe no.

@NotNowCato1254 Год назад

I had an '88 GPX back in the day - couldn't afford a new ZXR (it was 1990). Strong engine and gearbox nonetheless. I believe the ZXR motor was derived from the GPX but obviously had a completely different head, valve gear etc. The GPX was like a dinosaur compared to this overall - had more in common with a GPz900 - old school steel frame, carbs mounted horizontally behind the block etc. Looking forward to seeing this beauty brought back to life 👍

I had an alternator belt go on the M5 by Droitwich once. I pushed her all the way to the truck stop. That got replaced with a McDonald's years ago. I laughed when you said about how fiddly the air box was. Yea there's a few whacky things on them. Still my favourite bike. Please don't break it for parts. Fancy a ZXR750 meet up & ride out?

Most of the alloy corrosion looks like surface corrosion so soda blasting should brink that back to new. I did have a tank restored on an K5 Honda 4 which internally was much worse than yours and it cleaned up fine. The diaphragms in the carb tops may be a problem as they are pretty thin material. So long as not fuel has got up there or moisture they should be ok. A ten yr old battey will be almost suphated up, tossit and get a new sealed unit. The rest of it depends on how much you're willing to spend on the project. Might take you a couple of years but you'll have one neat machine at the end.
