cant go past a 12R

Post by Jonno »

After selling my 2004 12r a few years ago I have always regretted doing so, my current 9r has been a faithful servant for the last 1.5 years but just doesn't cut it for power. Yes I am a power freak, tourer, and sporting rider in the twisties, I have had a few years considering other makes and models but after the initial excitement wears off I always come back to the bike I know suits me so well.

So I am now the proud owner of a 2006 ZX12R which I plan to pick up from Sydney this weekend from perhaps a half reluctant seller.

Some of you know him but I will let him pipe up at his will.

I havnt been this excited for quite a while so forgive my glee :kuda:

No....wish I did like all the other stuff like BMC, cut rear tail customed with a fastag, pc3, stock can mod, kill the cat, GCF carbon hugger . He still will make them, last mass order was shit I forgot, but he sent them quicker than the first order. That took ages and convinced you all to trust him albeit stateside. I still have contact.
