Xanthus anyone?
Hi
I just bought a 1994 Kawasaki 400 Xanthus in reasonable condition. I'm used to owning rare bikes, but can find very little about this one except in Japanese...
What engine is this? I need some parts, so if I know what other models it fits that would help.
Anyone ever had one? Any good or bad points to look out for?
thanks
Robin

Re: Xanthus anyone?
I'm pretty sure the Xanthus uses the ZXR400 engine, I'm not certain if it uses different carbs/cams though?

Jim, thanks for the reply. I need fork seals - any idea what bike the forks are from? They are right way up.
thanks

Re: Xanthus anyone?
Wasn't the Xanthus featured in PS a month or two ago?
I think it shares a lot of items with the GPZ400

Conventional wisdom says to know your limits. To know your limits you need to find them first. Finding your limits generally involves getting in over your head and hoping you live long enough to benefit from the experience. That's the fun part.
