Well, it was delivered today

[tng21]

FInally got meself a bike so im happy today. went out and bought a bashy and won a leather coat on ebay.

one had one problem today and that was it wouldnt start, but thats my fault as i hadnt turned on the petrol. SO i ran the carbs dry and took me ages to sort it after flatening the battery trying to turn it over soo much to get the petrol into the carbs etc.

but im happy with it now, ran fine when we changed the battery from my friends bike so battery has gone on charge.

looks nice! how much did she cost?

for some reason the H is starting to grow on me...

[masterofinsanity]

certainly does look nice! on a nice find!

[RedexRobB]

That is really nice isnt it, ive found the H model growing n me lately too! Thats a well nice bike mate, look after it!

Love the colour.
I had a ZXR750H1 years ago and I painted it the exact same colour but I had pink graphics and the wheels wre done pink as well.

Your hover pipes seem a little squashed in as if they are too long ?

[deviant]

there's not many h models around looking that tidy still.

good buy!

[RedexRobB]

thats not the original colours deviant, thats all very recent work.

[deviant]

well true. but at least it looks as if it has been done well, and the rest of the bike looks pretty good.

should have twigged straight away from the black frame though

[rene]

look like 750 calipers to me as well?

the only thing i dont like is the stickers on the tail but still looks sexy!

[RedexRobB]

amateurs the lot of you!

H model never came with a black frame and those are the H model callipers too, they are different to the L, weather the H model callipers are the same as the 750 i dont know.

Thats an H1, braced swingarm init.

Any bike can look good with a powder coat and a fresh lick of paint.

Age isn't a major factor..

They look like L model pipes to me, i think the H and L have different lengths.

[tng21]

well to answer a few questions............

£850 is what it cost me, and £75 to have it delivered.

It is a H1 with the braced swingarm aparently.

Dunno how long the bloke had it before sellin it to me, i think a year or two, but it was the owner before that that had it painted so its lasted well. Middle of wheels powder coated while the rims are polished ( need redoing though as they oxidizing )

My friend said the hoover pipes look too long too so they could well be the L model ones mentioned. I dunno lol.

I also dont like the 400 stickers. I want to get rid of all the stickers that say 400 and the ninja sticker on the rear, think it looks a bit tacky but not sure if i should pull em off coz i dont know if it will mess the paint.

Ive just been to my parents house to nick the digi vid cam so will get some vid today if i can before it rains.

Just gotta get me some gloves and leather trousers and boots now and im done. managed to get this bashy from tinklers yesturday, scroll down to the blue one

i dunno, i offer some innocent words of encouragement and i get shot down...

To take the stickers off, use a hair dryer set to hot to warm them up first them peel back. Shouldnt leave any residue either, but if it does just a bit of white spirit will take it off.
