ZZR Info

I have questions about the zzr600.

1. How often will it need servicing?
2. How much will tyres cost each?
3. How much will chain and sprockets cost each?

I don't know where to look for info.

Re: ZZR Info

How much is each tyre though?

Plugs are £8 each? Each spark or for set of 4 spark plugs?

Cheers

Re: ZZR Info

the last time i bought a pair of pilot sports they were £170, when the rear needed renewing the pilot road replacement was £120. and yes i did pay £8 each for plugs £32 for a set of four.. but the zzr probably wont use the same plugs as a thundercat

Re: ZZR Info

on the bright side, an oil filter is only£6.and the air filter doesnt need changed very often....service kits on ebay save a bit and shop round for tyres.
