    Hi all

    I have finally part exchanged my ER6 for my dream bike, A lovely ZZR1400
    Have had her now for 3 weeks but have been waiting for good weather to take some decent pics, sadly spare time and good weather have not happened together so here are a few pics that I have managed to get...

    thanks guys.

    I test rode several bikes and she was just purfect. Believe me when I say that I never bought her for the power. What struck me was the balance, gearing, wind protection, looks and the rider aids (gear indicator, petrol gauge, tank range estimator etc). All amounts to a wonderful bike that I can see myself holding onto for several years.

    I'll change my profile pic once I can get a good one taken

    The insurance was steep but as I have only got 1 year NCB it's to be expected + I went for a slightly more expensive package.
    It cost me £650 for 12 months

    I thought that myself before testing it, to find that the engine and gearing is so well wonderfully balanced and controlled that it is soo easy to ride.
    She is such a gentle giant:cool2:
