I had a zx9r B1 bike many years back (the first model 1994) and it was typical Kawasaki - barking mad at high revs and grin from ear to ear. Was like
a rabid dog once you hit 9,500 revs!
Don't know how that translates into a BEC though, the bike had loads of grunt even with the wild top end. Anyone with an early ZX9R BEC motor
like to let us know?

My brother (currently driving round Norway with a new engine in it) says the ZX9R engine is very nice in a kit (Silva Striker in his case) until it
spits out the sump plug

B and C1 had chocolate gearboxes according to the local bike shop, C2 and E models were more robust. I think there was a manufacturer recall done on
some of the C1s to rectify a gear problem.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
