After reading about these bikes and seeing the thread on here about the 'scariest bikes you've ridden', I decided to look out one of these to see what the fuss was about and this came up for sale about 30 miles away. It is absolutely pristine, and I do mean pristine. It is in as good condition (if not better) than the 13 plate mint Gixxer I had. 13k miles, all servicing kept up with.
Extras wise, some R&G stuff, screen, seat hump, tail tidy, integrated rear light/indicator unit and the kicker... A Racefit Growler! The noise of this thing is just amazing. It's had the wheels powdercoated green as well, which I think look good. In the flesh, they match the paintwork but look different in photos...
