Back on a Kwak after 17 years

after the debacle the other week regarding my new bike from rite bike, i finally managed to do a damned good deal with another dealer, The Superbike Factory.

they rang me and offered me £6300 for my GSXR1000L6!!

so I accepted their generous offer & started bike shopping!!
i found a ninja1000sx on their website, did a PX deal last Monday & arranged to collect it on Saturday, it was the same as manic had bought the other week.

however, while i was laid in bed on Saturday morning, i was looking on bike trader & i spotted another bike in the colours i have been looking for, for ages!
i rang the superbike factory at 9.01 when they opened, i spoke to a lass in the sales team, explained i had paid a deposit on a bike to be collected today, but i have seen another bike that i really want, so can i have that instead?
long story short, they swopped my deposit on to the bike wanted and i collected it on Saturday at 5pm!!

it was a bit dirty as they hadn't time to wash it after it came in midweek, but had been checked over.

so i've ended up with 71 plate Ninja100SX, with 1850 miles in the colours i really wanted

i am absolutely chuffed to bits!!

managed 185 miles on it on sunday and am blown away with just how good it is.

light,loads of power, comfy, very flickable, lovely bike to ride.

Nice one. Cracking bikes. Not sure about your exhaust though.

Many happy and safe miles.

The green ones look best by the way.
