Wat about this then ?

Post by Saki »

Just me again!

Found an E1 ZX9 for $4k, seems to be in good nick, has around 40,000ks on the clock. Is it worth getting, i had a C2 model which was farken good to ride, heaps of mid range grunt and nice top end power, how much of an improvement is the E1 over C2 and $4k seems like a bargain to me considering its condition, is it worth getting or holding out for another ZX10 ?


Cheers guys

There's a couple of people getting around on 120k+ ZX9s, both of whom swear by them. I believe the E is considerable lighter and more refined, with a touch more grunt. But I've never owned one and I love my ZX10. I don't think you'll find a 10 in that proce bracket either.

I think you should join forces with Strika, you both change your bikes more often than most women change their hair style.

Variety is the spice of life my friend! Nothing wrong with that!
