New but not so new...

Post by Wazzr250 »

Hi all

Have been in the SA ride days forum for a week or so and thought I should say g'day to the masses.

I've just got my learners at age 35 (better late than never I guess!) and just bought a new ZZR-250... a red one coz the bike shop dude told me they go faster :wink:

Cheers

my wife bought me a bike for last xmas, i asked her why Red as i dont really like red that much, she stated the same thing "coz they go faster"
I looked at her with glee, happy she allowed me to travel at high speeds but she continued that due to the fact Red bike go faster stats also say they get booked more so i should loose my licence soon and be able to spend more time at home :lol:

so i sold that bike and bought a black one :D true story

anyways the ZZR should provide you with lots of fun Wazzr, 35's not to old for learners, just means your better abled to support the speeding fines :lol:

Welcome Wazzr, fyi, green is the new red :lol:

Hey WaZZ, incase you feel slightly ripped off, in a recent poll in Septembers edition of Performance Bikes...When a whole bunch of silly women (English what can you expect??) (Oh crap I'm half pommie!!) Which is cooler? Which is faster? Out of Blue and Black Gixxer1000's, 62.5% said Black is cooler, and 75% said Black is faster. But obviously with me riding a black zx6r, I would have to say black is cooler, faster and definately sexier! Toss the red and paint it black!! :P Contrats on the new bike tho. The ZZ-R is always the reliable. I ran mine into the ground and it still did 170km/hr after 14yrs!! I even got money for it when I sold it too!!
