Did you see what he said before saying that


"These charectristics are the key factors that make a desiable Superbike althought they can sometimes make for a very unforgiving and somewhat scary to ride" then goes to say

"it is also a verry user friendly peice fo machinery that allows you to use all of the availible power without bucking you off."

Now the genuine imported Kawasaki ECU. Would that possibly be the one that came with the bike. :roll:

and the full Akra system???? Mmmm unless I'm very much mistaken and that is quite possible, heaven knows sometimes it happens :roll: the bit in front of the slip on is the stocker with the exhaust valve etc etc.

Come on.. quit bagging that thing. It's a NICE looking bike, and it has a "self-lubricating" chain modification :D

Now where did I put my $9500...

It's like the fuckwits selling 250cc two stroke production racers and calling them "perfect learner bike". It is possible to learn on anything, but it sure as hell doesn't make it a good choice. I've been riding a TZR250 to work and I certainly wouldn't call it a perfect learner bike.
