Red Riding Hoodlum here - hellooo!

Postby Red Riding Hoodlum » Thu May 15, 2008 4:02 pm

Another newbie, joined just before Eastern Creek ride day 10/5/08.
I ride a ZX6R '97 model, so bit of a dinosaur now. I'm a recent convert from cruisers. This is my first sportsbike, had it for about 6 months.
Its changed my life! Sooo much fun - plus changed my riding style from lazy and laid back to actively involved, moving around on the seat, toes on pegs, trying to do the knee thing, keeping the revs up high in speedy cornering etc... Learning heaps about riding in general from attending two track days.
All in all, best bike ever! Gotta love the Ninj.
More torque, less chatter!
