[Perkles]

Thanks guys I had some fun on the way into work today ,the rc8 got some stick for the last time.I washed it and polished it last night ready for the p/x to be fair it does look a lovely clean bike for its age

[Blade]

But not as lovely as a gleaming 14 plate TEN

Enjoy the first ride on her mate

[Kwacky]

giz a go

[Blade]

He has obviously gone the long way home and is having far to much fun to come on here, haha

[Perkles]

Picked it up at 5 and just got home,I can only describe it as a little rocket.it feels and handles like a 600 but with a ballistic 1000cc engine.ITs so easy to ride and feels like it could lean forever in the corners,I got my toe sliders and knee down on the second island I got to.The front forks feel perfect nice and plush.THe engine just begs you to thrash it ,it's so addictive I can't wait to fit on all my bling and go for another ride when the next track day !
As you can probably tell I'm very happy

[Kwacky]

I've been sat outside waiting for you to come round

Sorry mate the inlaws are here I had to get back,this bike reminds me so much of your 600 it feels very very similar in the handling and how the engine likes to rev
When do you want a test ride ?

[Kwacky]

Next weekend please

[Perkles]

I can put my feet flat on the floor ,on the rc8 I was on tip toe,a few things I need to change/adjust
The throttle has loads of play in it,the gear lever is in a weird position but changes smoothly,the clutch needs adjusting as it snaps open abruptly and feels a bit Snatchy
It really needs stickier tyres especially for the track

[rocket]

nice one perkles sounds like you had a bit of fun and it made you smile which is what it is all about :-)

[Kwacky]

The kwak throttles seem to be like that as standard. There's loads on the zx6r but that suits me when I'm commuting on it.

[Blade]

Chuffed for you mate and knew you would love it.
