As the title says, the last 2 weeks have been a very interesting time in my riding career, I started with this:
But I wanted to buy this (oh the shame):
and in the process of looking I was shown this:
which I promptly test rode and signed up for, except mine will look like this
:
Then came the waiting
and as they already had a buyer for my trade in, they lent me this
:
I promptly informed then what I thought of the VN900
so the gave me this:
Today I get a call saying someone wants to ride the ZX6 (how rude!!) so now I have this:
and although I really want my Z1000 all I can say is WHAT A FREAKIN AWESOME FORTNIGHT!!!!
I lurve Kwakas!!!!

What's the insurance/excess agreement you sign on to when you get these loaner bikes?

I honestly have to say the 6, but only for the "fun" factor, I have to work harder on the 10 in the tight stuff to make sure I don't wheelie in to a wall or spin up bad and high side. IMHO the 10 is just way over powered

If I bin it I pay $1000.00 excess unless the damage is below that.
