I believe they also have a zero miles RC45 now that would be something

Black's is that the place in Ormskirt/Southport Had some stuff of them in the past good service but slightly exspensive.

As an x zxr 750 R thrasher, and avid luster for a '12- I can only say that you will not be disapointed in the twin- I even travelled 5hrs to go get mine all those years ago- ok you miss the out and out top end rush, but its sooo easy to adapt to the gentler thrust ( not that it slows you down on any road that has the slightst turns on it)- Surprised that the rest of you have not oppened that can of worms yet on Teal being the slowest colour
Price thing is always an issue when you still have one to get rid off- best to look at how much its going to cost you to change rather than the top line costs!

We Guys its like this great forum but the Kawasaki won I tried but was tempted by the ninja dark side
Its a 2000 ZX9r in the predicable green
After alot of deep thinking I don't think I would have been truly happy with the twin and the dealer would not budge over the asking price of the VTR (bet he,a still trying to sell it by the autumn) So if you allow it I will post pics sometime soon when it's stopped raining

Congratulations Rick in getting yourself sorted with a bike, even it wasn't a Firestorm in the end.
Not quite a ZX12R either but still an inline four Kawasaki none the less.

Someone on here reckons the ZX9R is meant to be really good on fuel so you'll have to lets us know what yours is like once you've had time to find out.

By all means post up a photo or two, it would be good to see what you've bought

Chris.
