Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

I've been riding the ZX12 for the last 2 years and the EXUP is a bit of a clothes horse in the corner of the garage at the mo.

The mot for the 12 is due in a month, I usually get it done early, but I' think I'll leave it until it's due this year.

I'm turning my 2008 R1 into a track only bike and selling the road frame, as it made financial sense at the time :)

I've got my bottom yolk at the plastic coaters. Should get that back this Friday. I'm also putting some new headrace bearings in. Got to get my top half fairing repaired and sprayed. I'm hoping all that will be done for April the 1st. The date is quite apt really. :lol: :lol:
