My ZX6r is back on the road!

[pepperami]

YA! After laying up the Kawasaki for over 18 months , I finally got her back on the road today.
Much thankness to Colchester Kawasaki as it appears that I have had a fair price for all the work that was done

I now actually have a bike to do my mini-tour on ?

What work was needed?

[pepperami]

10 of the 16 shims needed replacing and an assortment of other things like seals and so on
Let`s put it like this, Pepperami has spent all his pocket money for the next three weeks

I'm sure the figures in our minds match. Still, they are a superb bike and now hopefully it will run for a few years more. I'd of loved one as a first bike

Getting one would of been easy, but the insurance for a 17 year old would of raped me

It's completely pointless speculating on such things but I expect my life would have turned out a lot better had I kept it.

Nice looking bike, good to get back on the road i'll bet.

Found the Scimitar your neighbour has more intriguing tbh, even if they were a steaming pile of vomit they were still cool. Sort of.

Looks more like a Lotus Elite to me, though I may be wrong.

The G-models were nice looking bikes, and also at the stage where Kawasaki was coming out of it's me too nasty 90's gaudy colour schemes. The C-series ZX9's were very cool and simple looking too in this respect.

As for the Neighbour's shit brown colour wheels, well what a choice to have?
A nasty plastic fugly thing covering up the innards of a 3.0 Capri, or a less nasty looking (except for the colour) period wedge specialist car with a horribly unreliable slant 4 engine that costs a fortune to re-build when it's spat it's dummy out.

If the neighbour had of got a Tickford Capri or Tickford Maestro on the drive then yeah I'd take either instead of the bike, but not if it was a choice of the Elite or Scimitar though!

Ah so it is, an equally disgusting example from an era of beige and bile.
