Title: Couldn't help myself
Post by: Thegodfather on November 06, 2014, 07:27:35 PM
I know it's not the normal practice on here but I'm soon to be a Ninja owner again.
Pick my new track tool up next week and have winter to get ready.

I said I wouldn't ever do the Ltr or IL4 thing again but my 675 refused to start on the third day in Spain so used a few mates bikes.
First an old R6, then a Blade which was a lot better but then lastly rode a 2009 ZX10r and it felt like I was back on the 675 in the twisty stuff. I was extremely surprised how easy it was to throw about. So as soon as I got home I looked out for one but then got thinking about the 2011 model so thats what I went for.

Bring on Spring  :moto:

Hmmm,,,,,,, I'm not a fan of the Green because the massive frame under the tank stands out too much for my liking. But saying that its going to be tracked up red and black.

Now that is lovely.

I think the ZX10R is my favourite sports bike at the moment, I'd love one in my stable.

Sweet :moto: :moto: :moto:

Nice.

because the H2 makes the S1000RR look a bit insignificant in the pissing contest stakes now ?

Still a very capable bike which most people would struggle to get the best from. This is the only shape of Ninja I really like since the B1.

Bought MCN this morning and like it even more now.

Seen lots of pics and looking forward to sitting on it o at the NEC in a couple of weeks.

BUT..... not sure I can afford one.  Looks like a used buy in 2016 maybe....

It will be up for sale in a couple of weeks.
Will try as a package first, with shed loads of spares.
I'd probably be better of selling it all separately though.

Will do. Getting new fork seals and the coil was the starting issue and that's being done as well.
