Kawasaki ZZR 600 E7

My old bike

 

The Kawasaki ZZR600 (or Ninja 600 or ZX-6E) is a sport touring motorcycle manufactured by Kawasaki. The ZZR600 series motorcycles, as sold in the United States, are 599 cc (36.6 cu in) motorcycles designed from previous generation sportbikes but incorporate more ergonomic seating positions and different graphics.

In Europe, the model designation differed. The motorbike was introduced in 1990 with the ZZR600 D1, with the D2 and D3 following in subsequent years. For 1993 the ZZR600 E1 was introduced with more muted colours and a slightly different fairing, and the model numbers went up E2, E3 etc. until the E13 in 2005. In 2006 the model number was ZZR600 E6F. The 599 cc engine powered all of the D and E series bikes.
