Well from what i could gather theres been 3 of these already, so thought id be number 4.
Introducing Ruby, she is a 97 ZX6R and she is living in my garrage
has a Roo Racing canon on it (LOUD!) and flush indicators, apart from that, pretty stock.
Currently has no rego, which is fine because im on my P's for less than a month. This also gives me some time to do some TLC work to it.
Just changed the oil and coolant, replaced a faulty thermostatic switch which was stopping the fan from turning on.
Next up is a new rear tyre, been told a Shinko is the way to go for my type of riding and type of bike, then chain and sprockets
Pics are poor quality but the fairings are in decent shape, some cracks on a few of them but they are well hidden from plain site
ohhhhh i got that 6 addiction
