nice riding position , your not all crampet up like my zx10
loads of welly , as you expect from any 1000 cc sports bike.
seamed to have heaps of low down and mid range power,
verry hard too say on bike thats only done 350km .as they dont seam to lossen up till 1600km.
there no such thing as a bad sports bike these days, as if they where shit they never sell them ,
there is only bike's that get better review than others. rather than good or bad ones.
I'd say all litre sports bike would be within 5% of each other , not much differnce to any joe blow on the road .
They all got to fast for NZ roads unless you think you better than Dave Jefferies (or you'll end up where he is)
verry nice bike, good finish
loved the blue lights in dash
wicked brakes
needs some pipes so you can hear it coming
probbly not much of a feed back for you
As i never ride someones else bike as hard as if is your own , as you dont want to bin it, all the wee thing going through you head (new tyres, brakes etc )
not for me as it is not $10,000 better than the ZX10 ive got and thats what it would cost to keep up with the Jones
