Tips for buying used
Out of line “Motorcycles that have been wrongly forgotten”. In this edition: the Kawasaki ZR-7 / S. And why you should start searching today!

Market situation of the Kawasaki ZR-7 / S
“A wallflower.” The judgment of the motorcycle dealer Edward Klepp from the motorcycle farm in Karlsdorf in Baden sounds harsh. And also used professional Sebastian Oertel from the Harz is going in the same direction: “Nobody has it on their screen anymore!” We are talking about a veritable motorcycle that did not sell badly between 1999 and 2003: Kawasaki ZR-7 and ZR-7S. A total of 7,634 naked ZRs and 4,422 disguised S-types were brought to the bikers at the time – quite respectable. The air-cooled in-line quad did just as well in the tests at the time: “A full-fledged motorcycle with a robust four-cylinder engine (…), comfortable and good-natured to drive.” Not a bad result, which you can read after the maiden voyage with the first issue of the naked ZR-7 in MOTORRAD (11/1999).

Dynamic aspects are particularly popular (“respectable acceleration and pulling power”) as well as quality and equipment features (large tank, main stand, ergonomics, workmanship), the “unfortunately not the norm in the middle class” are. The Top-Test (14/2003) published four years later also attested the disguised Kawasaki ZR-7 S many good properties: fundamentally honest, solid, inexpensive, versatile!
In good condition, already well under 2,000 euros
Even so, the Kawasaki ZR-7 and the S version haven’t really burned themselves into the memory of the motorcycle community. Rather, the retro-trimmed Zephyr 750 is mentioned, from which the ZR took over the carburettor-equipped engine. But that shouldn’t bother today’s budget-oriented used buyer – on the contrary. Rather, he can look forward to finding a motorcycle that, thanks to its wallflower existence, is a real insider tip: that is in good condition at an extremely slim rate, and is available for well under 2,000 euros on the lively weekend tour, including the Holde can saddle up and where service work can be carried out in the home garage thanks to the manageable structure.
Market situation of the Kawasaki ZR-7 / S
Kawasaki ZR-7 / S from 1,000 euros: low price level
With negotiating skills, the ZR-7 can already be obtained with three digits. However, you then either have to accept a very high mileage or buy a richly messed up specimen that has already had to put up with a few failures.
Kawasaki ZR-7 / S from 1,500 euros: medium price level
The wide selection of different ZR types starts from 1,500 euros, whether naked or disguised, whether retailer or private, whether mileage eater or grandfather clock. It is noticeable that this Kawa is usually offered in its original condition. Weird conversions or extras on board? Rather not!
Kawasaki ZR-7 / S from 2,000 euros: high price level
Beyond the 2,000 mark, there are ZR models, which were only executed when the opportunity was available (summer, sun). But be careful: the low mileage can threaten nasty damage to the stand. Can these be excluded? Buy!
