Jay tells wife about new bike purchase..........Jay grows beard, learns Dutch and explains to chat show host how he lost his testicles:
Not at all Matey! See my 'Wish me Luck' thread! The 'Currency of Forgiveness' is lightly exercised again!
OK, fair enough, just making sure all is ok before it's lost in the Mist's of Time! Might start her up Tomorrow!
A really lovely looking bike there, we met at Kais suspension when your blade was in for its suspension and i was having my 954 done, your blade was very nice indeed but this ZX is simple eye candy. I have also been to invisible patterns at Goldborne who did a great job protecting the bits i wanted on my new CB1000R. If you have the ZX suspension set up again at Kais i may even get to see this bike ! A great buy.
Ahh, understood mate, I shall be paying them a visit myself soon to get my electronic suspension set up....
No not really mate just the following small alterations.......... Arrow Exhaust + De-Cat pipe Power Commander and or Re-flash of the ECU K&N Filter H&M SS Quickshifter Bonamici Rearsets Renthal Clip-ons HEL Stainless Brake Lines Brembo GP4-RX Calipers Brembo RCS M/C & Fold up Lever Brembo Clutch Lever Ohlins TTX 36 Rear Sussies Ohlins Nix 30 Front Cartridge kit Springs to suit Full Evotech Protection Full GB Racing Crash Protection Renthal 520 Chain conversion -1F +2R Fancy Dash at some point as I Hate the Tacho on the new ZX's! Had a little Blat up to Demon Tweeks this morning to show Andy so she's got 55 miles on her now.
I attempted to fit my LSL clipons today but they don't fit so will look at the Renthal... So whats your first impressions mate of the first ride??
First impressions are as expected. The low down Torque does not match the Blade but it's not lacking for everyday overtakes even in 6th gear. Obviously I aint explored the upper reaches yet but being as it should be 15-20 bhp up on my Track ZX which is also Mental I doubt I'll have any complaints. Best suprise are the Mirrors, they are ACE in comparison to the totally useless Blade Mirrors, a real license saver IMHO I see my old Blade is up for sale already! http://www.robinsonsrochdale.co.uk/usedbikedetail.php?id=25246
