    Good choice mate, get ya suspension setup to your weight and you'll be away laughing. Be good to get ya on video in the twisties sometime if you are keen.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Good shit bro.
    Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even.

    I am thinking about it, i agree, it looks gay as, but it is practical, and the mrs lieks the idea of having something behind her when riding pillion.

    Yeah man, will have to make sure i look FORWARD on straight roads from now on!
    I have spent the last few weekends focusing on getting quicker on the zxr, so hopefully ican carry it over onto the gixxer. I will be playing with the suspension set up, and visiting Shaun Harris too to get the ideal set up.
    I would be keen for some videoing, once i am quick enough on the 600, or you are welcome to trail me on the 250, but i think tristan would still be a tad quicker than me.

    Yeah i am undecided on which i prefer, however this is more unique...
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.

    That's looking in good condition Brett. If you are looking for practicality you can always wear a belt bag. They look just as cool as a pack rack and will fit as many speedos as you may need to carry. I've always wondered why you need to carry so many though.

    Are you going to keep one of the ZXRs? For any particular reason if you are?

    I'd be interested to hear any thoughts you had about other 600 bikes you tried (Kawasaki, Yamaha, etc...).

    Yeah i pulled the carry pack off tonight, looks much better. Give it a wash and wax tomorrow, i dont think there are any stone chips at all!
    I unfortuanately will have to sell both of the ZXR's, although if money did not have to be considered at this time of year, i would be keeping both of them! The one looks brand new and rides like it is, the other ZXR is my daily rider, and i know it inside out. I absolutley love both bikes, and the green zxr has given me so mch pleasure. So yes, to answer your question, i would LIKE to keep one of those ZXR's, because they are such fun bikes, however i will most liekly be forced to sell both of them.

    Nah bro, that is a ZXR250a model wheel...i might be wrong though, is the offset the same on the NSR as it is on the ZXR??

    Agreed, least yours is a black bike. I've removed the pillion pegs off mine and the pack rack can be fitted/removed in 5mins or less. I took the 2 allen keys and 10mm socket to Taupo this weekend, specifically to take the rack off at the track! Check out my new profile pic.

    Dude, that bike looks so incredibly sleek!!! Since you are also an eastie, we should head out for a ride sometime...once i can legally ride the gsxr that is.

    nice bike.
    LOL I am pretty certain at this point that through the twisties i would be much much quicker on the zxr, been spending the last 2 months specifically focusing on getting faster through twisties, jumping onto a new bike, plus one that i REALLY dont want to crash, i would be slower on the gsxr...i dunno, haven't actually hit any twisties on the gsxr yet.
