 yes mate sold my 06 last august ,,fantasic bike to ride ,drops into the corner so nice ...only down fall is ther about the same perfomance as a 600 but with more torque ,so a bit more gear changing than a 10 .. i loved it ,,,,just missed the power of the zx10r  :roll: so now i have the best of both worlds ,,,a naked 10  :-P

but as a simple run around that sounds cool, did she get her wheel up easy enough, was there enough torque to get her airborn on the throttle in first this I assume she will , how about second...want to use her as my wheelie bike....would prefer a speed triple but really dont like the riding position...bugs me that,  want to buy a british bike soon....

Has to be said though that the Z1000 will be my next bike, in about 2 years time though.  :icon_thumright:

not into italian at all...too much past history and they break down...everything italian breaks down...fiat, ferrari, lamborghini before they became german....but the 1098r is maybe an option for next year...looks good anyway...
