Shipping Address as follows: Ari White 109 Hidden Lake Dr. Rin....... Just kidding man but, D@MN theat's a hot bike! I have been lusting after those for a while, and I like the blue ones WAY more than the green ones. Looks like it just came outta the showroom, take care of it and ride safe.

Can you tell us more about that bike? It looks like an upright riding position. And it looks very fast. I like the resevoir shocks in the rear.

I like the air intake style front cowl, under the windshield. Looks mean....

Was it on your top 3 list like the Nighthawk S? I'm curious to hear your comparison...other then it being more powerful and faster...what other differences?

The ZRX is on my top 10 list of coolest bikes EVER. Its yet another bike I want to add to my collection. (If I can ever really get that collection started, that is).

Doing some work on it right now. Getting rid of the bronze/copper engine parts (powdercoating some, replacing others), rear fender delete, bar end mirrors...
I'll post some pics when it is all completed.

That bike is gorgeous. I noticed many NHF members picked this one in their "wish I could afford 5 bikes lists".
It it water cooled or is that a huge oil cooler? Also, looks like the fairing gives a little more wind protection than my 700s.

Yes, it is water cooled. The windscreen does a good job...mine is a bit taller then stock.

Just saw one of these riding around here the last couple of days.
Sharp looking bike. I prefer my bikes in basic black, but I have to say I like that electric blue.
