Ask him when he's redecorating the kitchen, the reaction will tell us if it's him or not.

Kept a bike for 12 months? That definitely isn't Cornish.

Duke3, i know flipping weird eh, anyway i'm back in the room...

Oh, i'll have some kit and lids too sell soon too; thats also been far too long!

Had a 2013 ZX10R for a year now and great bike. A lot has been said already so won't repeat but my only advice would be get a test ride as you will love it or hate it.

It maybe a IL4 1000CC Jap sportsbike but compared to your previous Blade it really is different animal, GOOD but different . Best description is Perkles comment, in that it is like a 600 on steroids. Personally I love it and the top end is completely bonkers but it doesn't have the instant any gear drive of the Blade if thats what your looking for in a litre sportsbikes. As I say I would get a test ride and enjoy it

As always thanks Blade. I've not ridden one yet nothing new there when i change bikes

I've not had a Kwacker before so time to take the plunge and having seen a mates 636 the build quality is very good.

I can tell you 1st hand Kawasaki as a company is thriving ,bikes sales for them are massively up and they are getting new dealership contracts weekly
They have some very exciting new bikes inthe pipeline,ground breaking even so watch this space

So how many PMs have you had asking for more info?

I dont fancy having my head cut off with a Samurai sword so my lips are sealed but they have big plans at the moment not only in motorbikes but the rest of Kawasaki Heavy Industries.They have just signed a massive deal with Boeing and are building a new factory in China to fullfill the demand
I was told that the motorcycle division has never looked stronger and given a taster of the new models they are working on

If they need a test pilot for any of the new bikes I'm happy to volunteer

Anyway, back on topic, I reckon this is an April Fool's joke. Cornish has never owned a bike for that long.

A momentary lapse of reason as they say Kwacky, don't worry normal service is now resumed; back on buying one every 6 months again

So do i go for....

A - 2011 in green with 9k miles on?

B - 2012 in black with 12k miles on? (will have a service done though)

need to make a decision before 1400 today :-)

You forgot Kwacky's Option C.

Don't worry about the mileage as the engine's are solid.

Check to see if they needed a rectifier recall and if so that it's been done.

Otherwise go for the one you like the look of.

Green, obviously!

Fair point, not worried about the mileage (well if they do a major service as that's a cost i did'nt allow for in the budget) so colour it is, I'm thinking black....

I'll check on the rectifier recall and i think a wiring loom one also...

No you're wrong, it's Green

Go for black. It's a well known and heavily documented fact that commoners have a green ninja.
