I think there was a green bike, an orange one plus a red and white thingy. I did ask to test ride the one in the last of the pictures. a few minutes later I woke up with a face like a lincoln biscuit, think they are a bit too quick for me :lol:

Hi Tony

The Orange one is what i already have.

Funny thing is i fitted the ZX-10 suspension & forks to the Z1000 a year before Kawasaki did it so should i have filed the patent ? ;o)

Might go for a new one if my 4 into one Akrapovic will fit the new shape bike.

should do and the engine is still ZX9R based.

Regards
Rick
