Hi

Post by marshy »

Hi all you ZXR lovers,
My name is Mike. I'm a new rider, ish! Just passed my test the other day. Hopefully tonight will be investing in a zxr4 L3. :smt003 Cannot wait!
I love bikes and will never stop. Really do like the zxr's. really do look good.
Is there any pointer i need to know or are they just too good? The bike is restricted to 33bhp, however, do they still scream?
Thanks!
Mike.

Ahrite awesome!
Me and a few mates said we should go. Sounds to be a really good weekend.
I am currently looking into clothing and is driving me nuts! What are your suggestions with full suits and 2 piece?
I have been looking at the full suits and you seem to get mote for your money and more protection!
But not really sure :smt012
Any advice?
Cheers
