Yesterday I bought me a nice green - its a dark green, not proper kwacka green :~( ER-5.. it felt sooo perfect
I was expecting it to be a little bit slower (10HP down on the GPZ), a bit more fluffy n squishy ride wise.. the result was totally opposite of what I was expecting!!The power I'm really happy with since it has more midrange and thats where I run it most of the time, cornering grip & especially feel is excellent, its like it just wants MOAR!! more lean, more speed more everything
I so totally get the whole nekkid bike thing now too! really pumped for gingers now!

yeh its had a big service done fairly recently so no need to worry about that
it does sound that way Tim
Only prob now is do I keep the GPZ regoed? I guess I can cross that bridge when its up for renewal in a bit under a years' time
big time w00t on the rack
