G'day,
I've always been partial to the 'B' model 9's and was able to bring this one home recently. I stupidly sold a tidy ZXR750L 10 years ago to buy a house and be responsible, and it always bugged me. Loved that bike.
This one has a similar character to the ZXR with it's bulky size, analougue clocks and throaty exhaust note, but is much softer to ride. It feels more limousine than sports car to me.
It's done 45,000 ks, is in good shape cosmetically and i'm looking forward to making some improvements over time like suspension, de-restricing the carbs and fitting an advancer.
