New purchase

Postby billwest » Thu Mar 13, 2014 3:09 pm

Bought this week:

ZX12R 2006 model, with 6600km on the clock! Couldn't let that one get away. In excellent nick.

Problem: which Kawasaki to ride, and on what day?

:D

Yep, its a Father and Son affair.

Now is the time to start spending extra funds for:

Helibars (done)
Hugger (ordered)
Double Bubble screen (ordered)
Radiator Guard (ordered)

just to name a few.

SWMBO didn't even ask the usual question, like "Why do you need another bike."

Dunno if its still available but there used to be a kit that turns the rear seat into a flip up job, spring loaded.
