A quick mess about in PS and it came out pretty cool. I have a few small mods planned and I'll update this thread as I go along.

I managed to find a new genuine seat cowl for £25 which is now on the bike and looks pretty cool, obviously it's not in the pics Laughing

I don't like the slab chassis.

Front end looks very nice and the tail section is one of the best.
The cans are fantastic and functional.

Overall you get a lot of bike for your money and you love it. Cool

Yep same as mine but it's registered as 04. 'Candy lightening blue' but the tail on mine is the other blue so I might leave it or have it painted at some point but I'm not too bothered as you can't really tell

Thanks pat and everyone for the comments Thumbs Up

Really tasty mate Thumbs Up I understand the function of the exhaust protector but it has to be said it's fooking ugly haha

I really miss my b1h apart from one thing, do you find that the bars vibrate to the point you get white finger in pretty much every finger? I found mine vibrated so much my hand went quite numb which was wierd.

It does vibrate quite a bit in high revs (More than my Monster did I think!) but it's not been a problem so far.

Sometimes I feel to change the Akra for a Mivv GP but then I think to myself 'don't waste money!' Laughing

Tut Tut No! I just felt like moving up to something else. Already want another Ducati but it won't be for a looooong while Laughing

Enjoying the ZX6 though, can't wait till all the crap weather goes! I'll be getting the chain+sprockets fitted and service done for £50 Mr. Green

Fitted my HID kit at the weekend. I used the same place that Tot and Dragstar recommended (HID's Direct) and told them I needed half a car kit so I managed to get it for £23! Very Happy

I bought the 6000k kit and told them it was for a reflector type headlight so they sent a H7R bulb. Fitting is super easy, the hardest bit for me was making a hole in the dust cap so the wires could pass through. It takes about 15/20 mins

Before

After

It looks better in real life, I just don't know how to take pics without glare Laughing

The high beam is just one of those fake xenon bulbs off ebay so the colour sort of matches. Hopefully I should be able to try them at night this week
