Kawasaki used slipper clutched on their ZX7R series bikes since 1991, i  dont understand why Ducati doesnt  sell the last generation superbikes with Slippers neither, And they are pricey to buy them :-X ($1500-$2000)

my GSXR has a  factory slipper clutch and i love it...  makes  hard downshifting  a Fun thing [thumbsup]

Captain America: You know Billy, we blew it....

Wouldn't you know it? I have a 1990 ZX7... missed the slippers by one year. >:( I didn't know, or rather don't remember, Kawasaki doing that on the ZX7s. Since Ron has a '91 ZX7 (I think... maybe '92) and has recent experience with resurrecting older superbikes I think he should make me a generous offer for my 1990 model. [thumbsup] I think it would look really cool in his garage next to his older sleds. [moto]

Yeah, mine's a 91.

I just happened to search craigslist for the first time ever a week ago.  Some guy had a 93 that he had removed the engine, and was selling the rest, which is pretty much what I need to resurrect mine.  I called him up, but he had already sold it.  So freakin close!!!  I would love to get that bike going again, the engine is pretty nice, with the Muzzy race cams and valve spring kit.  Maybe not the best setup for the street, but it would still be fun.

I still want to see yours fastwin!
