My new (to me) ZX9R

Post by adge82 »

After the demise of my 7 i have been forced to look to better things.
I really wanted a little bit more power and a newer bike, at first i didnt like the look of the 9. But the more i looked at them the more i knew i would have to have one.

And this is it...
So far i have put a PP2CT on the front, new pads all round, new grips, tinted screen and mini indicators.
She has 38000 on the clock and is clean as a whistle. The Tingate pipe and Ventura rack were on it when i purchased it.

Good pick up mate. I miss my 98 ZX9, they are a sensational bike.
It's really all about standing around drinking Dave's beer.

Thanks guys, its been a blast so far.
Im itching to get it out and take it for a real ride. So far its all been commuting to work.

The 9 really is a fantastic bike, i can see why their owners rave about em. I still giggle every time i look at it.

Wonder if i could get a ride in in the morning :twisted:

Nice pick up. Not too many with low(ish) K's and in that condition still around. Well done, they are a great bike. (I absolutely loved mine too) :kuda:
