Just picked up the replacement for my 03' ZX6R which was sold recently.



I don't really like the paint so I'm having it re-sprayed Kawasaki Green. Also switching out the chrome windscreen for a smoked double bubble.

I have had a few, off the top of my head:

'93 CBR900RR with a race motor (bought it off a racer who moved to a newer bike) that was just nucking futs
ZRX1200R
SXV550 - never buy an Aprilia
Several crappy bikes like Katanas and some dirt bikes

The ZRX was my favorite, but the clamps went bad, the handlebar spun locking the brakes and resulting in a 720 endo. Sold it a while back, and I am looking for a newer one.

How about some love for the "twins"?



She's been gone for a year now. Thinking of getting another.

i had an rc51 as well, and a white evo (still have the evo). i had to park outside so i chained the rc to the evo's wheel. the rc51 is a fun bike, a sporting twin and the cam gear whine is just awesome.

sad to say though, it's a dated bike. too heavy, and kinda slow for a liter bike. life is too short to get the same bike again man, try something ridiculously different.

There's nothing wrong with Aprilia. The SXV550 is a racebike with lights. The engine needs to be serviced (and sometimes rebuilt) VERY frequently. Oh and don't forget it's expensive to do so. They are by no means a daily rider. Although the SXV is a bat**** insane bike, I'd recommend the Husky 510 SMR instead.

I have the SXV 450... love that bike. Will probably start tracking it next year. Hands down the funnest hooligan bike I've owned. And a maintenance schedule to rival the Evo..LOL
