Fix or Sell - 96 ZX1100E2 was created by ForsakeNxJT
I recently purchased a 96 ZX1100E2 off of Facebook Marketplace and the transaction was kind of rushed.  The bike overall is in decent shape but the case is blown out.  I have found replacement cases used on EBay.  I bought this bike for $650 and am pretty sure I can get it running for less than 500.  I know this is a KZ forum but technically this bike is a descendant of the GPZ1100 just water cooled.  Wanted some opinions of whether I should fix this bike or part it out as that parts available are limited online.  In the image i have already removed all the necessary parts to see the damage.

I would hope that you would fix the bike and not part it out.

These are badged as GPZ1100's in the UK I believe, keep and thrash (they are quick)

Unfortunately I was so excited about it I ripped into it without getting any pics.

Thats what Im seeing over here as well.  Only difference between the zx and the GPZ is ram air and Fairing layout.

Hmmm, I have a few box section aloominium ZX1100 frames from 91 and they look nothing like that. The fairing yes. You sure it’s a 96?

Get your motor running!
