Hi all,
My name is Damo and i am from Brissy.
I have just paid my deposit on a brand new 2012 ZX10R after many years of riding an 05 Yammy R1.
Why the big change?
Well i am not brand loyal, so to speak, i have always enjoyed my R1 but this year i was due for a new ride. i shopped out pretty much everything in the 1000cc class and i honestly dont think you can go past the green machine this year in terms of value and bang for buck.
I pick it up "hopefully" end of March as i am getting a few mods fitted immediately.
Anywho, i am new so gday, and i hope to meet some of you soon.
Cheers
Damo aka Xciting

Re: Hi all. Noob Owner here
Gday mate missed your post originally. Welcome. I've never "ridden-in" a new bike but I doubt very much if I'd have much respect for it
