I am getting the first zx10r....
« on: February 03, 2008, 10:00:47 AM »

Hi guys just joined...got the details from an LB'er (london biker) who said you were all going to do a track day at silverstone.  Not booked that yet but I am just looking at what is going on before i go ahead.

As my title shows i have bought already the first zx10 in the country....I am picking mine up on the thursday morning..

I am doing a track day at Brandshatch with the LBers on the 1st march taking my zx7r and the R1 and of course now the zx10...the zx7r is the newish track bike, first day out on it and so I will be taking her steady...well as steady as I can go...

As my title suggests I like twostrokes and I have one or two...looking for a H2 this year and maybe a KH250 that will be my collection complete.

Anyway as I say hope to see some of you at silverstone.  I will be at brands already booked so if anyone else is there you will spot me I am the one with the new ZX10r....I am in Alton by the way...any of you do the railway cafe....

ah thats interesting...I guess some must have been here for testing   but MCN had the only one in the country just a few weeks ago...so am mightily confused.  I ordered mine last year and was told then i was the first to order one, I was told just yesterday I am getting the first one in the country...officially, but I guess there must have been others about...still if kawasaki tell me I am the first I believe them...dont you....?    perhaps there are a lot of firsts in the country...

Welcome Twostrokes , was probably my post on LB that you saw  B-)

Glad to have you on board mate , with regards to the " first '08 10R " , you need to remember that , this being a pretty specialist site , there ARE guys on here that king of " get to jump the usual queues " if you get my meaning  [whistle]

I believe Keiron has taken delivery of his already  but that doesn't mean his will be " road ready " before yours  [whistle] as you can bet your bottom dollar he won't let it be seen until it's " perfected " if you get my meaning  :roll:

Get some photos up of your " collection " - there are a few " old timers " on here who will be able to take a trip down memory lane with you  [whistle]

hi mate and welcome to the site

ref you getting the first 08 10r, i've got to be honest i would have thought the first ones would have been dealer bikes and not customer bikes, this is what usually happens when new models come out

either way am sure you'll be happy with it

i think he is trying to say he is the offical one to be first on the rd with one ,,, but it isnt march yet ,which is usally the date they first go on the rd .or u end up with a bike that looks 6mnths older than it is  :shock:  if thats not it and he isnt putting it on the rd this week ,then as ive already said keiron has had one since december  :roll:  in which case thers no way he is first ,,espech as racers have them already  :-P

Does all this REALLY matter  :dontknow:

Stroker has bought a bloody good bike that not many of us will see in the next few weeks and , from what I hear it is going to be added to a rather nice collection of other Kwackers .

The important thing is that it's another 10R on the road and another valued member into the " family " which is this forum

Piss boiling session over   [whistle]
