ZRX1200
Main Features - Brakes / Wheels / Tyres
Putting the big ZRX's pumped up muscle to the ground is a wider rear tyre mounted on a wider wheel. Taller gearing means less shifting and more enjoyment of the engine's improved torque spread. These changes, and others, give the new ZRX handling qualities more often associated with sportbikes than Musclebikes.
Brake / Wheel / Tyre Features
Gigantic 6-piston Tokico calipers bite into semi-floating, radially-drilled 310 mm stainless steel disc rotors. Braking performance is unsurpassed, with excellent feel at the lever.

Compact, lightweight 250 mm rear disc brake offers impressive braking performance.

Rear wheel width is increased from 5.0 to 5.5 inches and wider rear tyre (170/60 ZR17 changed to 180/50 ZR17) is fitted for brilliant road-holding ability.

Driveline lash reduced via use of a ZX-12R-type rear-wheel damper. Ride quality is greatly improved as a result.
