    Thumbs up Acceptable downgrade...

    Due to circumstances it was decided it was a good idea for me to down grade from my R1 which obviously hurt somewhat.

    She's a black '08 ZX10R with, screen,2 Bro's pipe, fliter, tail tidy,smoked intergrated tail light, secondary butterflies removed, replaced the UGLY OEM indicators on the mirrors and a couple of other minor things

    Oh well...here's her replacement and after going for a wee pootle this afternoon I have to say that I'm more than happy. Will post up some more once I get it sorted

    That's no downgrade! Just a sideways step.
    Nice bike, DMNTD!

    At least you didn't get a kawasaki! That would be a down grade... Have fun!
