2006 12R Gold Barge is now sorted to my liking, absolutely awesome today rippin up a decent new rear tyre WOT everywhere possible through the hills around here after pissin orf the awful Pilot Road 2CT rear in favour of Diablo3 to match the front as M3 and M5's are like rocking horse shite around here.
Yes, tyre wars whatever, but on a big bike you need stable and well constructed sticky/proven tyres and IMO I have tried them all and sorry sports fans the French maker still can't make a decent tyre to MY liking.
Suspension has been sorted for a smaller big unit fella and works extremely well.

Again I want to thank Hoffy for all his help, and a few others in assisting me sorting it to my liking, big big thanks :kuda:

I can't praise the mighty ZX12R enough for its ability in everything the road can through at it, considering it is 12 year old design with updates all the way through and the last design update being 2004 and last model being 2006, it is a very capable bike in all road terrain.

I will do a comparison in a few weeks time on the race track bred 2011 10R (with a rego plate) and the barge, both are brilliant and different in their own right but in power so far the barge is more useable and more fun, on the other hand the 10 handles like nothing I have felt before, in time iam sure when I put a few thou on the ten and gear it for the road it may change my mind. Hardly a comparison.
