Is the grippy rubber on a Kawasaki ZR 7 good?

Grippy rubber just shows up the lacklustre nature of the rest of the chassis though, and the ZR-7 quickly runs out of ground clearance in fast bends. However, the ZR-7 does win out in the equipment stakes.

What should the tire pressure be on a Kawasaki Z1000?

The 36/42 stated in the manual is absolutley ridiculous, even for my 220 lbs. There’s basically no contact patch at that high pressure. I run 33 and 38 to support me properly. On a 120/70-17, 1 psi more will support 25 more pounds. 1 psi less will support 20 lbs less.

What kind of brakes does a Kawasaki ZR-7 use?

The twin-piston front brake calipers aren’t peformance parts, but provide sufficient stopping power, and the modern tyre sizes allow decent sport-touring rubber to be fitted.

Can a bike run at different tire pressure?

Going by the bike manufacturers specs for the OEM tires is not a good idea after you have fitted aftermarket tires. The new tires could be designed/recommended to run at different pressures than the others. Also you increase pressure with weight. (2 up, luggage) I have hit potholes and never blown a tire.

What kind of tire pressure does a Ninja 1000 have?

They make carcass changes in regards to a load rating, cross section profile and sometimes compound. An example is the stock Bridgestone BT016 on the Ninja 1000. The cross section shape and circumference are different from the off-the rack version. It is also a single compound instead of a 3 zone design.
