2000 Kawasaki ZR-7, Throwback to a blast of a 4 cylinder! - For those seeking a do-it-all naked streetbike with the appearance of a hot rod with its engine clearly visible, exciting performance and an affordable price, Kawasaki rolls out the new 2000 ZR-7. This "naked" machine puts its rider in a semi-upright riding position and is devoid of bodywork around the engine, yet there is just a hint of the famous Kawasaki sportbike influence in the styling of the shapely fuel tank and sleek tailpiece.
