Cool bike Summy, but a few too many stickers for my liking Razz

Have loads of fun on that cool looking machine!!

I know what you mean Stew..I have only owned the bike for 4 hours, 3 hours of which i have been working so i havn't had time to make the bike my own. I'm gonna take some off...it hasn't got a k&n and i havn't got an aria

Aside from that i like the bike as it is

Well, you kept a bit stum about that didn't ya! Where'd you get her and how much did you have to part with?

Phil. · World Chat Champion Joined: 02 Feb 2002 Karma :

I did keep pretty quiet about it yea. The bloke was umm-ing and arrr-ing whether to sell it or not so i wasn't that sure i would get it..but he did in the end.

Uk bike, all the origional parts, 2512miles, Not a scratch on it. £3,700. I knew this bloke beforehand, i went to high school with his daughter and i used to see him outside carnells on a sunday. He was always big on R1 till he had a bad crash then went for somethin smaller..an SV. He's goin for a blade now which suites me fine to have his cast offs.

Insurance was £750 TPFT which i'm happy with

Shes a real beauty! Razz

What year is it?

Korn · Admin Joined: 01 Feb 2002 Karma :

Oh yes, I forgot to ask - what's with the white numberplate? Is it a legal one 'cos I quite like it as opposed to the standard yellow.

Shamrock · Nitrous Nuisance Joined: 02 Feb 2002 Karma :

Its an EU number plate, hence the circle of stars! We've had em in Ireland for years,Germans and French have them too and ive recently seen some GB's around aswell! Thought the Brits wud never part with their yellow reg's.

Cheers Korn. I think i will do that...It's worth the cost of a restrictor whether it get used or not.

How do you go about getting the certificate though. Does it come with the restrictor, Does the DVLA get involved?

Zimma · Wheelie Junkie Joined: 04 Feb 2002 Karma :

the certificate will be given to you by the shop you get the bike restricted at.... then just go home take off the carbs get sploshed with a full tank of petrol (another story Very Happy

) remove the restrictors and rebuild.. and as korn put it taa daaaaaa! Smile

Kawasaki tried to stop people from de-restricting their ZXR 400's by making the fuel tap fly off the bike when you try and lift the tank up, dousing you with petrol and seriously putting the shit up your two mates who are both standing over the bike smoking cigarettes Razz

Love the bike summy Laughing

have you got any stats on it? top speed 0-60?

Phil. · World Chat Champion Joined: 02 Feb 2002 Karma :

Cheers Dan

Stats... off the top of my head

70bhp @9 or 10 rpm (Dunno what it will be with the exaust system on it..maybe 5 or 6 bhp extra??)

weighs 170kg

0-60 is about 3.somthin seconds...havn't come close to that yet...although i haved popped the odd wheelie

I acted on your advice korn and got one sorted

There's £135 worth of metal, but i guess it's not what i paid for..It was the certificate, even though the reg and the VIN number are slightly different. I had a 3 where i should of had an 8 and i was missing a 1 from the VIN.

Did your insurer want proof of pretty much everything you told them Korn? I had to prove my no claims, photo copy my licence, my alpha dot details and the restrictor certificate..they wanted all this AFTER they had taken the money of course

G · The Voice of Reason Joined: 02 Feb 2002 Karma :

My current (for KLR converted to ZX6R) insurance didn't ask for proof og any of my details.
I reckon when you make a claim they'd insist you provided every last detail and try and invalidate your insurance if you can't find any details. Assuming <touches large piece of wood> I don't make a claim I probably could have got away with saying I had a year or twos no claims.
