Well it had to happen. I've just waved goodbye to the CBR1100XX I've had for 4 years
Started to feel it was a bit dated so made my mind up to get a RSV 1000 Aprilia and booked the test ride for last weekend. Anyway, on the way down to the test ride with the missus she suggested we stop for a cuppa at the local Kwak dealer. We were sat outside with a brew and after hearing a few bad comments about the mille the missus suggested I take a ZX10R out for a run. After initial resistance on my part I gave in and took an 08 model out
. Nice bike..yes..speed and handling good..yes..in short I was smitten. Then took an 06 model out with a povic system on it with baffles out
Well that was it. I came back grinning like an idiot and bought it
I pick her up on the 14th June and can't wait
Big thank you to the missus
(Nightowl on this forum) for getting me onto what I can only describe as an awesome bike. Looking forward to seeing if we can sort out a ZZR1400 for her on the same day I get the 10R.
Hope to meet some of you soon and all welcome to our BBQ on the 28th which Nightowl has posted on another thread.
