Ok, I'am new to here, I'm 19 years old and hoping to get my bike towards the end of January. After I have sold my beloved 1978 Citroen 2CV (looks the same as the James Bond one)
What's the best ZXR 400 to get? Some people have told me go for an L9 as they have better engines?
Also what would you recommend me doing/changing on the bike?

the L9 is also younger...
recommend you get as good a service history as possible, factor in basic things like new tyres, chain, sprockets, cooland, fuel/air filters, oil, brake fluid and pads to get the bike in reasonable condition, give it a ride and see where your abilities are better than that of the bike.
