I love the lights on it, love the whole thing!

Might put a Racefit Growler on it, that can sounds awesome but I heard someone with a growler on a zx10r and it sounded amazing. The upside down gears are really good, seems so much easier.

I need to get my head around that quick action throttle and quickshifter, it's caught me out a few times at low revs and the feeling of not snapping the throttle off to change gear is strange.

Kind of surprising that it's still running the stock rear shock, utterly lush otherwise though Thumbs Up

I've still got the laser GP shotgun from my zx9 if you want something a bit different on it Wink

Same here Seb, would of thought they would have been upgraded with all the other mods.

Should I declare all that stuff on my insurance or not?

If you want to change the shift pattern back it's easy, I changed it back the ZX6 I had

Fuel tank looks deceptively small, it's actually really wide when you're sat on the bike. Think it's either 17litre or 20, not sure.

Probably change that for a black one and I think I will take the stickers off as well.
