Okay, what year is your old 636? I cant believe you just went out and bought a new one.

Jees, what do you do for a living?

Bastard. BASSSSTARD!

my old bike?? thats a 99 zx6r g2 https://predator.bikepics.com/pics/kawasaki-zx6r-99-bikepics-169948.jpg

its 6 years old this may...and its been riden all year round for the best part of 2 years (excluding various crash repairs lol) and its looking a little shabby....granted i didnt really put much interest in it for nearly a year after my crash with pops.... meaning it started to fall into a poor overal state as i basically left it to rot in my garage.

Then blowing an engine, twisting the frame....the list just goes on and on

Done alot of growing up over the past 2 years, i realise that speed isnt everything...(im done with crashing ) im not interested in taking my life in my hands everytime i start the thing (plenty of risk already...without my riding slashing the odds) and i find personally looking after the bike has become a major part of the fun of owning one.

You sold your current bike yet then, or are you now advertising it like mad?

[craigT19]

trade in got £1800 for is.

not bad really got race fairing and a full system (with is appently trade in suicide cos joe average isnt interested in a potential mot failure)

24k miles on the clock...engine has done maybe 20k but the clock is all that counts.

Also its had a few bad prangs...but that wasnt too bad because the shop that im getting the new one from and trading the old one, is the shop that put it back together when the engine locked and twisted, peeling the bike apart like a banana

Nice purchase. But only £1800 for your old bike , privately I'd have thought it was worth more than that.

Still, long as you enjoy the new machine

craigT19, for some strange reason I was misread your username as BLOFLY636 and hence my question about how old your existing bike was i need glasses.
