Stew Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 X6R Ninja....... Ok, ordered a bike. A 2007 model ZX6R Ninja in a rather bright shade of orange. Went for the 2007 model as it's near identical to the 2008 but without horrible graphics and orange was off the menu in '08! Got a good deal too! Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 That is a very beautiful bike… Quote
Chris`I Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Nice one, makes my R6 look soooo old and outdated! I really should get my R6 back out and running again and stop spending money on the Zed so much! Quote
Stew Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 Looked at the new R6 too. Wasn't really looking for a new bike (a few years old would have been fine) however it's all Lomotos fault! Just kidding but he rightly pointed out at the price you can get these for why buy used??? Just have to wait for delivery now! Quote
jimbadman Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 MMMM bikes i love em, defo the way to travel in a hurry or in a city. What sort of Dollar did this set you back mate? Gorgeous choice by the way Quote
Stew Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 Less than 6k bud. There are cheaper available but not anywhere near local! I think 5600 was the cheapest in the UK that I could find! You can pick up an unregistered 636 (05 or 06 models) for 5k brand new! Quote
lomoto Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Tim missed out on a sale not really at the price these are selling for new I told Stew to get one, nobody is getting much profit out of these super low prices Quote
Stew Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 I told Stew to get one See. Tim made me do it! Quote
lomoto Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 I told Stew to get one See. Tim made me do it! remember I also told you to take care with it Quote
Stew Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 You did Tim. You're a good man! I'm looking into some further training too aswell as the offer from my colleague. Looking after future customers! Quote
GIXXERUK Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 You did Tim. You're a good man! I'm looking into some further training too aswell as the offer from my colleague. Looking after future customers! not sure if they do them oop in scootland but the police do ride out courses which are cheap and very good if this is your first sportsbike then take it easy mate, the bike is much more capable than you will have the gonads for Quote
Stew Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 I am an absolute pussy! It will take me quite a while to grow the balls to ride quick! Quote
GIXXERUK Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 best way to be mate most accidents on bikes with more power include a hedge and a bike, no other vehicle, its usually a case of too fast into a corner which the bike can handle but the rider bottles it, brakes and the bike sits up this is very very common, extra training is the key, the keith code stuff is pretty good, learn to use the vanishing point http://www.sportbikes.com/articles.aspx?id=374 you'll love it the power is Quote
rmmackfc Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Wish I had a bike license... Keeping thinking I'll do it one day... Quote

GIXXERUK Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Get it done soon. The rules change in september or october this year! +1 they are making it more and more difficult, go for a direct access course Quote
bronzee Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 If you squint in the right way it could almost pass an 07 orange 350. Very looking!! Quote
Stew Posted March 19, 2008 Author Posted March 19, 2008 I've never seen Tempur up close. The Kwaks paint is gorgeous! It is very orange but it has a lot of gold through it too. ***Girly comment coming*** It's really sparkly! According to my girlfriend! Quote
rmmackfc Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Get it done soon. The rules change in september or october this year! +1 they are making it more and more difficult, go for a direct access course I'd heard something about that, thanks Quote
