    lol, Let me tell you they fly kitted up, big bore one and you'd be shocked how quick they are! I've rode one fully kitted that pulls just under 60! One gear ripper! GREAT for wheelies too...lol

    Nope :rolleyes:, ok, just a little!!!! :D

    Reminds me of when I was 16, my Dad bought me a brand new Kawasaki AR50 which I had for a month before he come round to my mums (they divorced when I was 8) and caught me fitting a 93cc big bore kit to it :D Those were the days.

    Fitted a Lithium battery, coupled with a brand new starter motor (fitted under warranty) the Blade turns over with a vengeance! Fires up good and proper, no more mornings that sound like the engine is being turned over by a asthmatic sewing machine.

    Fitted accossato master cylinder on the zx6r had a slight problem they only had shorty levers and how massive the run kill switch is I can only get 2 fingers on the lever which I do normally use but I want it more across . I can't change the kill switch to the other side as well as the body of the master cylinder hits the kill switch .

    So good old bikers discount store sent me a TWM long folding lever just got to send them the shorty back .
