No, fixed that on saturday you poof, fixed breather hose and changed oil and cleaned air filter. And washed it twice. Now it does not heat up and thin out after sitting off the clock

That's cus we ride our bitches hard. And don't change oil as much as we should... and it thins out. Sigh.

And placid I'm up for a 'fastest in a line' test

I thought that was his mum?

I took one of these for a test ride today for a mate who is looking at it as his first bike.

I thought the clutch was slipping it was going so slow.

nice and light though. Probably a bunch of fun in the corners - and heaps lighter for commuting.

lol and the good news is I don't have to prove i have a huge cock. So I won't be taking you up on your challenge...

So you win by default!

But yeah my bike has a rev limiter, quarter turn throttle, but a biggish rear sprocket so take off is fast, but top end ain't so great... the fastest I've pushed the bike is 175kph (on new not scrubbed in tyres... so the bike was really bouncy... kinda scared me off the throttle, also not knowing the roads we were on didn't help), my ex-flatmate (who used to own the ZXR before me) dragged it off with her biker mates (not KBers) and apparantly she got it just past 200kph... which I would believe

Also by the time I'm done fixing it up, she's gonna have a new racing chain, new rear sprocket, high performance spark plugs (used to have them but put in normal ones when trying to get her started again)... but yeah also getting the ZXR dyno'ed when she's road legal, then again after I've added all the bits... so i'll see if what i've added makes a difference power wise or not... i'll keep you updated

Back in the days when we both went hard together it was pretty even so this should be interesting.
