Which means we'll get first sight of the big bang ZX10 for 2011! :P :P :P :D :D :D

Went today, wasn't too bad. Wasn't even able to sit on an R1 but! Crazy. Some nice bikes, but nicer girls. The Kwaka girls were hot!

The one thing that surprised me was how comfortable the Z1000 was. It just felt really light and I really liked it. Ok, I was only sitting on it in a stationary position for like 2 mins so its most probably completely different riding the thing for an hour or so. But I liked the bike a lot. Just not enough to consider buying one, got to have fairings.

I found it small in person, was hoping for it to be a bit bigger, but the GTR1400 surprised me, so much so that i am seriously considering it.....

Yeh it was small. That's in part what surprised me about it. Nice looking bike too.

Yep, great looking bike, but at 6'6" and 150kgs not so practical, my 9 is terrific size wise, and as i mentioned the gtr 1400 was a big surprise for me, didnt expect to like it so much!

I think the side panels on the 2010 model GTR are much better looking than the previous incarnation. Now shoehorn the motah into the existing ZRX chassis and wella..............
