The Last 2 weeks riding have been "interesting"

Post by Plaz »

As the title says, the last 2 weeks have been a very interesting time in my riding career, I started with this:

But I wanted to buy this (oh the shame):

and in the process of looking I was shown this:

which I promptly test rode and signed up for, except mine will look like this :kuda: :kuda: :

Image

Then came the waiting sleepy2.gif and as they already had a buyer for my trade in, they lent me this :vom: :

Image

I promptly informed then what I thought of the VN900 protest.gif so the gave me this:

Image

Today I get a call saying someone wants to ride the ZX6 (how rude!!) so now I have this:

Image

and although I really want my Z1000 all I can say is WHAT A FREAKIN AWESOME FORTNIGHT!!!!

I lurve Kwakas!!!!

Sensational Plas. That's pretty awesome service from the dealer. Congrats on the Zeddy, they are a great looking bike.
It's really all about standing around drinking Dave's beer.

What's the insurance/excess agreement you sign on to when you get these loaner bikes?

I honestly have to say the 6, but only for the "fun" factor, I have to work harder on the 10 in the tight stuff to make sure I don't wheelie in to a wall or spin up bad and high side. IMHO the 10 is just way over powered :oops:
