I have been away from the Kawasaki scene for a while since my early run with a zxr750 h1. I then had a run with a Honda CBR1000f but could not wait to feel the power of the Ninja again. I sourced a zx9r 96 for a little fun and games again about 1 month ago. The bike was showing her age so in the middle of a bit of resto, new skins and the lovely frame and swing arm re polish.
p.s your site is the best with such helpful people and info .

then the person who bought it of me decided to spray it the same colour. He also lost his licence a week after he had bought and sprayed it, then had to sell it to pay the fines. I still have a left over engine case for the H1 to. Great bike

i am originally from the Central Coast near Gosford then moved to Mimi near wallsend area. Work out at Rutherford for an electrical wholesaler. Love the area and plenty of places to go for a good ride like woollombi, putty and of course out to hornsby by the old pacific hwy. So where have you moved to Gosling 1?
Greetings! The Queen & I now reside in Newcastle and once my baby gets out of the shop it would be lovely to meet up for a ride and perhaps a meal and refreshing beverage once we return. Feel free to PM me for details. Also, nice rides.
Hey Gosling, Im at Lake Macquarie [Morisett] You'll have to get up this way soon & do some rides.
BTW welcome smiley, PM & we'll go do some Ks sometime..
Smiley - we moved to Canberra when I was a kid, I lived back in Newie for a couple of years in the mid-80's and get back up there as often as possible....
