Has had a few modications including;

Speed derestricted.
Lazer exhaust from ZX9R.
Rejetted to match exhaust.
Polished frame.

This is a SP model which means +5HP over standard ZXR400, Upside down adjustable forks etc. Great step up from a 250 as the bike handles really well and is a nice power step from the 250s.

Pilot Power tyres front and rear, 6 months WOF and 8 months rego. Plenty of service history outlining maintenance available.

Free KB sticker included! :sunny:

Cheers

Yep. AvGas owned this before me. I've had it about 7 months.

Alas Steved, time to move on is it?
To whom it may concern - This bike goes hard!

Yeah, I have loved my time with this bike. Never spat me off although it did try pretty hard a couple of times, most notably on the day I picked it up from you. :gob:

Onwards to a 96 CBR600.

Is it wise to step up to something like this from a GN250?

Saner than a late model 600.....how much self control do you have cause that's what it comes down to.

Don't think you can handle 4 at the same time??:shifty:
PS Deano is right...

It's got a lot more guts than the GN but that should be obvious.

To be fair, if you were responsible enough you could trade up to a Busa.

In reality, this will be enough of a step from the GN that you'll enjoy the extra power, but not too much that you'll get into trouble.

My new price is $3200 for this bike. I have made a 3 day fixed-price offer on Trademe at that price.

if ya get the suspension set up right on these bikes they go pretty good. are prone to tank slappers but a steering damper will sort that out. They have mint brakes for the year and with some decent rubber they handel pretty good.

They can also be wheelied.....

Was a good step up from my 250 and it is a good intro bike so when you do move up to the 600's it's not so much of a jump.

I see it's sold...my loss.

This bike was a bit of a weapon, handling was damn good, quick, stable. Engine had more poke than any 400 I've ridden by a decent margin.

Cheers for the ride Steve, pity I couldn't get my finances sorted in time. The new owner will get a lot of enjoyment from this bike (after they bleed the brakes :) )

Yep. The new owner is Klown so the bike stays in the KB family. I hope he enjoys riding it as much as I did.
