Picked the ZXR from Neo (nice guy with a batshit mental dog ;) ) yesterday, rode back the 100-ish miles without a hitch.
Filtered the motorway when it was crawling @ 50, i was 70 :D
Feels awesome to back on the road again :excited
Fitted the grab rail the night i got home, went for a bimble with the missus.
Went out for a blast tonight, then the heavens opened so it was epic slow cornering.
Roadsmarts are on order, i hate Conti's....

Got a black race screen arriving this week i hope.
Pro-bolt screen bolts have arrived, gun metal, ally oil filler cap fitted.
Steel lines fitted today (cheers zac) with some more Po-bolt bolts.

Lucky bugger, Is this the one he had one ebay for a friend? i had my eye on that if the money became available. Enjoy it, by the way, do you have to put a stubby on it? Kinda ruins a really decent bike if you ask me.

Looks nice! :smt001

It was owned by Neosophist himself.

The can is big and heavy, sounds awesome though.
When my mate comes back from racing sidecars in the IOM TT Ill be getting it on his dyno and throwing 95 jets in it, recommended by Neo :D

Particularly like the mug holder on the tank, nice touch. Can see you are already modding like crazy :smt003

Don't lose this one to the scrotes or we will have to lend you a shotgun so you can shoot yourself - before we do :smt003

Just had a browse, it was someone else.

Do we have a revised security regime this time?

Teh CBR only got nicked because....

We live in a mid terrace house with ally ways, and steel gates preventing access to anyone but the residents whose house is connected to the ally way.
I parked the bike up in the ally way behind the steel gate, made sure it was locked and went inside. I didnt put the chain on it cos i was going back out in a couple of hours.
Some-one who has a key to that gate, some-one who lives on this side of the street, has opened the gate and taken it/let scrotes take it.

If only i had caught them. There would have been pure carnage involving hard things and jaws, leading to a trip to hospital for a couple of twats to get their jaw reconstructed and wired shut for 6 months.
