Nice - but it hasn't got the purple wheels!
I have to get a 'sensible' main bike for day to day use first - anything like that will be a second bike... hopefully get something more focused at the start of Summer adn do some track days!

We both had them - and both blew up dramatically!
I liked the way the ZXR750 accellerated, but the way it went bang and pissed all it's oil out, and tried to highside me around the Cloverleaf didn't impress me at all!

I wouldn't.
Like we were saying in Dublin, there's just something about the bike I didn't like, but I have no idea what it was!
They still look beautiful, and go like stink, but...

Umm... I just through nearly £400 at my swinger before the crash...
If you're interested I'll buy the bike back and you can have it for a couple of hundred squid? (depending on how much they want for the salvage)
I don't think it got damaged at all, but I'll have a good look at it.

No idea when someone is coming out to look at it - they might just take it away and check it back wherever broken bikes get taken to?
Now I've got a hire bike at £60 per day I doubt they'll be hanging about, so I'm expecting something to happen this week!
You're welcome to come and have a mooch at it if you want?
