    K5 600 - At last a Real bike.

    At least I own a real bike. Its a k5 600 with 11,300km's on the clock. Full yoshi system and ohlins steering dampener. I went around and picked it up last night in hope of taking it around puke today but it wasnt to be. Its mint to ride, even though I only rode it for about 20mins I love it, its fast and well just really nice to ride, it took me 5 minutes to get used to the seat height as I felt about 10feet off the ground, and the weight on my hands was insane. other than that theres not a lot I can say.. Oh yeah I brought and ohlins rear shock and front fork internals for it last night and im sending my forks away on monday to get the shiz installed.

    The rear shock is out of nicko's bike and hes the same weight as me so I wont need to touch it hopefully. Shaun might be doing the forks for me. But we have to see as im struggling to come up with cash and hes a busy man.
