Picked up my new ride today - Woohoo! what a beast. Megacycle pipe - what a sound - and suspension setup bewdifully by the previous owner - what a dream!
Heaps of fun riding home on the old pacific highway ;)
Only downside is it doesn't have a centre-stand - but I'm sure I'll get used to that.

So now I'm ready to head off to the CycleTorque motorcycle show on at Old Sydney Town tomorrow. I know someone posted something about it a little while ago but I can't be bothered looking for the thread :oops: , so consider this post to be 'bumping' the topic ;)

I think MadKaw said he might be driving up - anyone else coming?

Here's a pic of the new ride, further pics at http://members.ozemail.com.au/~tony.young/zx9/index.html.

If its not raining I'll be riding otherwise I'll pack the wife and kid into the car and drive up.....please all pray for sunshine laughing7.gif I'll be on the black ZX2R with green rimstickers.

Nice bike by the way. If you are looking for some accessories for it you should probably have a chat to Didier from Frozzie who will be there tomorrow as well.

I'm happy to donate.
I'll be in and out at various times I think. Be there myself in the morning, then go for a ride, then back around lunchtime. The missus will be there around lunch too to take some shots of lots of bikes for one of her fine arts assignments.
Davo at Parra Kwakka said he spoke to you and suggested doubling me down on the 250 :D

The man's keen hey - did he tell you that the '02 is down to $10,990 ?

It's got me damn tempted but it's a bit more than I can afford quite yet - might have to keep saving :cry:

Theres a 99 model with 36000ks on it in the trading post for $6700 atm...

I'm thinking about checking it out myself.... but then I'm hoping my payout turns up next week too......!!!

Yes it is a 99 model. For some reason I keep thinking 98 though :?
And no Davo didn't tell me the '02 had gone down - guess he didn't think it necessary ;)
