  1. same here, no point in wrecking the gearbox
  2. sounds like a sweet trip and not very expensive either! well done both of you, now wish that was me
  3. you should have maxed in first though
  4. wouldnt stop me have been talked to about this r1 purchase...
  5. have the same issue with my other car bar the vibrations that sounds like tracking... my shocks are shot, after I stuck some eibach springs on her I think the increased compression knackered them. good excuse to get coilovers for that car also
  6. Mine is for sale at £4K, leaves you 3.5k for fitting & other goodies thought you had a bike too
  7. Aye tell me about it, my friend dropped the RVF and it took me ages to get replacement fairings for it. I purchased the bits from 3 different people on ebay and even then they didn't quite match up cus some had faded more than others. I loved the fact that the RVF could be ridden hard and still stuck to the road even on corners. Was nice to be able to open it right up leaving a roundabout whereas when I rode my friends CBR600RR I felt that I had to exit fully before opening up and didnt feel quite so safe on it. But then of course as you say, you get the extra ummppphh on the straights that the RVF couldn't give and its more of a beast to try and tame. I shall certainly invest in some good tires and take it very easy to start with Id recommend to go with bt003s, class tyre.. .not good for a commuter bike since you need to replace them a few times but for weekend warrior driving or track theyre awesome. what colour combo did you have on the rvf? mine went to france collectors item over there, some girl going to use it on track only since you cannot put a grey import bike on the road. not sure what happened in the end, might try and find out. The 600s you need to feather a bit on the throttle but you DO NEED to start on the power before the exits!!! always Ian, stick a photo up of your bike, always liked the ninjas what endcan did you have on the rvf? had my oem on for resale and then a scorpion carbon can... made that rvf sound amazing. btw, ask ian to fit it for you if you take the bike off him
  8. check this man http://www.my350z.com/forum/forced-indu ... -pics.html also look at his st kit, would have gone for the tt but didnt wanna wait around... looks like maybe I should have done that some big tt options there...
  9. no thats probably pretty true but you need the rest of the stuff to go with it and fitting it and tuning it so its a bit low to budget that low. wish Id have had space for the rvf but to be honest was to scared to drop her doing trackdays since you cant replace anything on them really at this stage with proper quality stuff. well wear with the ninja whatever you do get sticky tyres... any 600 compared to the 400 will be mighty different. the 400 was class on track with lots of corners but lacked a bit of power on the straigts. the 600 does that nicely but could do with a bit more cc, like a 750 or something.
  10. mmm used to have an rvf400 took her in from japan, loved that bike... Ive got my r6 for sale for 2k if youre interested a -00. looking to upgrade to a newer r1 if youre into bikes then get a bike instead of spending on the z, youll get far more powder for the bucks. 7.5 might not be enough for even a sc kit if you dont get it cheap and do it all yourself.
