Thanks for all the positive comments everyone... DAMN it's great to be back on a kwaka!
I didn't really say much about it... it's a 99 ZX9R, got about 51,xxxkm on it now (45855 when I picked it up), staintune can, few blingy bits like some flashy undertail, integrated indicators that you can't hardly see, and a really annoying polished brake fluid cap that keeps shining in my eyes

oh and those cool instrument lights from ebay that are blue, it's been crashed, some scrapes up the exhaust and the front fairings have been resprayed a slight different blue, have I mentioned that I luuuuuuurve the 9?

needs a little bit of work, went to get the suspension set up today as it didn't feel right (but I thought this might be due to the last two bikes I had having super hard suspension) and something in the rear shock is seized so it's going in for a rebuild on Monday, and possible steering head bearings

Also going in to meet the mechanic soon for a major service as I don't know the history of it other than the book was stamped up to 30,000km and it was traded on a new fairyblade.
Got to work the other morning and one of the dudes I park near commented on how big my smile was when I took off my helmet, he said he hadn't seen that smile since i got the honda
