Mt Edens got an orange one

Quite nice looking. Honestly its way better than the 07 model

I was in a bus passing by Mt Eden bike shop. Then I saw a bike. It looked like a Z750... but the rider was in a full sportsbike style position. Then it hit me. It was 08 ZX-10R

Oh I dunno about that. My sensible side tells me that they should have kept up building a bike like the ZX-9R. And maybe the 12R. Those fuckers.

I look at 9s and 12s on tardme all the time.

But then I look at 749s a lot too, so I am a spaz.

You getting a green one?
I liked everything about the bike. The muffler and mirrors/indicators look fine, in the flesh

I get told my bike is a gutless piece of shit daily cause the 10 puts out another 50odd HP.

Well firstly I will declare myself as a Kawasaki nutter; so following reading my response you can feel justified in dismissing my post as hysterical kwaka dribble BUT FFS mate have you ever ridden a ZX9R?????? They are quite possibly THE BEST ROAD GOING SPORT BIKE AVAILABLE TODAY! Yes thats right today! The ZX9R is a great tourer, a great Sunday 'lets get the fuck outa here' ride ,and a fair contender on the track for average to good riders. I realize that there are faster bikes, better handling bikes, lighter bikes, and better looking bikes BUT the ZX9R is one of the few bikes that has a foot in every camp (except the pink gay Honda camp of course) By simply dismissing this bike you have in one post declared yourself as having less grey matter than the average punter.

ok ok maybe that was a bit harsh but I can assure you the ZX9R IS STILL a fantastic road sport bike that in fact I am thinking of purchasing another one of because I miss my deceased one so much.

Rant over.

dont worry Sully60 I don't really think your a stupid fucktard.
