That's a really nice bike.

Lose the "relentless" logo ASAP though.

Rides really well. Remember when i went from the zxr to the cbr and hated it? well this feels a bit like the same way. Ride position, the speed at which it turns in, countersteering at anything over 3mph. all that is gonna take some getting used to again. Oh and the pain of riding a kwak. but shit dudes and dudettes, i love it

need to fit the fairings properly... there are a couple of lugs missing etc.....

RE: Relentless

Ill be either getting rid of it or adding "Bye Bye" just above it ?

Gonna pop braided lines on it, new rubber eventually, sports rack, and get a diff can.

The can is a 1/3rd cut off a yoshi, its way to loud, epic loud lol.
So i'll prolly be heading over to MTC to get a link pipe and new slip on can.

Slip on prawns bolt on LOL

Had to replace the left peg as there was no rubber on it, luckily i had a spare one from the zxr400 went on with no probs

That paint job does a good job breaking the boxy lines of the F1-3's.
How much did you get it for? I WILL definitely recommend getting the springs matched to your riding and weight (You're up north right so KAIS will be the closest?). Get the rear shock refreshed. That WILL sort out the handling.

It's a bit of a tank which I loved! I loved muscling the bike around the bends when chasing modern 6's or thous. Very little goes wrong with them mechanically or electrically.

Good bikes IF you got it for a bargain (by which I mean around about £1000).

I toured on mine no problem. Much more rewarding bike to ride compared to the blade where it's too easy to ride fast!

Ditch the BT014's. I had them on the bike and hated it... too skittish. Then had 020's... HATED THEM because they felt wooden. Roadsmarts are the way to go and you'll happily get 8k out of a rear. The bike needs a stable tyre to complement it's slow but sure-footed nature.

Swapped the bike outright for a CBR600f3 1995.
The cbr was in good nick and went like stink but the cam chain was playing up.

Defo gonna ditch the bt014 and get another set of roadsmarts

Aaah just as well! Take it from me, that the engines are pretty much bombproof. Mine went when my air filter got torn. Combine that with winter use on the scottish north sea coast, the piston bores were scored and caused the engine to smoke like a bugger!

But get the suspension work done. How many miles has it done? If it's 30k, then do it because it's a matter of when not if.

Oh, the 4 potters are decent enough. You don't really need to upgrade them. Just keep on top of the seals and pistons throughout winter and you'll be fine.

I miss mine

Ta for the info bud.

Off the top of my bonce i think its done about 27k, and the bloke said that it had a refurbed rear shock fitted last year.

Gotta get the braids though, i need brakes that aint "spongey"

[rob_scott92]

Thats one shexy kwaka

Swapped it for a cbr600f you say? I'm thinking when my restrictions up i may go for a cbr, zx6, fazer 600 or sv650. Not really sure yet but i've got a while to think about it. I do know I want something with a fairing though

How was the cbr other than the cam chain problem? Would you say decent 3rd bike?

The CBR was a cracking bike. Great fun and awesome if you want a 1st 600.

I abused mine, just like every bike i own.
I kick its head in then get a new one.

[rob_scott92]

Please be gentle to that kwaka

Only just noticed its got green wheels...
