Back on a Kwak!

Postby James » Wed Nov 16, 2005 5:11 pm

Yep - its been 6 months and I couldnt cope with the withdrawals of not having a green bike any longer. So when Mark asked for offers on his ZXR750, I made an offer and then bugger me - it was mine. :D

So I decided to get aquainted with it on a trip up the Oxley last weekend, as you do.

Its great to be back! :D

Thanks Dave :D

Mate, its a corker! I still need to iron out a few things here and there, but the engine is great. Love the roar of anger in it! The handling is good too even though I havent even looked at the suspension. I tell ya, its just what I needed to rejuvenate myself for riding again.

The Kats still in the garage but I have a bloke from QLD interested in buying it. We'll see what happens. I dont mind if I keep it and wrap it in cotton wool for 20 years.
