VisorDown summed it up best in their retrospective review of the ZX-7R: “The Kawasaki ZX-7R still rates as one of the best-looking race-replica machines ever. And it’s been looks alone that have kept the venerable sexy seven so popular.” They go on to say that while the ZX-7R wasn’t as “radical” as their main competitor (the GSX-R750), it sold better thanks to better styling and a “race pedigree that the Suzuki couldn’t match.”
The 1996 model had several changes, including a new engine with more midrange power fed by twin ram-air intakes. It produced 123 horsepower at the crank.
It also got fully adjustable suspension front and rear as well as Tokico 6-piston brakes.
