and what was the trade in price, I was told the 1000 is $17 300???

[gearbox]

I was told $16900 plus O/R approx $1000,so the C/O price is OK by me. Who ever buys the nine will have a hassle free bike and a lot of fun.

it looks like the tits the green one the most

First impression was, shit! a nanna bike,but that was me not used to upright riding,then, its a hoon bike in disguise,so far so good.Will post up after a longer ride and a few more K`s on the motor.

First long ride today{about 600k`s} had a ball,it handles very well and was only slowed up by a tractor,{sorry harley} going up the Spur,it was shit hot thru Whitfield Pass as well.I think it will only get better as it gets more k`s and me getting more used to the upright riding position {at last, no neck pains!} and most importantly,if I didn`t own one,I would go and buy one asap,they are impressive to ride,loverly smooth power out of corners,maybe fun to do a track on.

Sounding good . Pics please

I'm hoping to upgrade to one of these from my 9 aswell soon, how do you find it compared to the 9 power wise? And some pics would be great too if you find time...

Hi,sorry about the lack of pics{haven`t taken any yet} as far as the power,they are very similar but for one very big difference,the smooth power out of a corner! as I was used to carbies,the fuel injection is more than likely the difference? It could just be that the Ninja 10000 has a lot more torque. It is the easiest bike I have ever ridden,so flickable!{the wider bars have a big advantage} The gearbox shits all over the nine as well but,to be fair 10 years of technology is a big help.The only bitch I could have is the lack of panniers,I was just emailed by Kawasaki Aust., saying they will not be available until the 2nd quarter,next year,not happy Jan!

Ok that sucks, but realistically i may not be looking to buy one till mayish anyway so that might suit me, no good for you though....
