Just bought brand new have 58 miles on her so far 😇 I’ve been riding often on since I was 18 I am now 51. I’ve always thought about taking the leap but I heard they’re so unforgiving and so much unusable power I’ve also seen a lot of people moved to a liter bike bike and then move back down to a 600. It truly is a completely whole different fucking world. I don’t think I could ever go back now that I have moved up honestly I never mastered my 600 this bike is way above and beyond me. Sad to say I laid it down a couple days ago was only 58 miles on it coming into a corner too hot but I don’t think it’s because it’s too much Bike for me (which it is 😂) but it’s because my riding skills are not up to par ! I am just self-taught I have never taken any kind of training watched any videos etc. I’m changing this now I just got twist of the wrist and I’m going to start doing some reading and watching some YouTube videos and a lot of people have suggested to me a track day ! Anyhoozer I sold my ZX6r and I haven’t checked in here for fuck I don’t know maybe a decade or some shit miss you guys 😇

That is a Sexy machine, congrats on that. Good idea to keep on looking at ways to improve the rider. We all have a lot of room to improve. Glad you’re ok and this is definitely the first TIME I SEEN YOU TYPE normally LoL.

So you threw your ZX6R down the road enough to buy something else and immediately threw it down the road too......

gee sounds just like what I would expect from you... I expect you are still riding past kids at high speed doing dank whoolies and hitting curbs too

Nice ride. Seriously considering getting one myself next. But I’ll keep the 6R too. It would be this one too. Black R1 with the new body style. (y) So it really is much faster eh? Lol

I was going to call BS when I saw no CAPSLOCK. Congrats man. Go do California Superbike School for real. You owe it to yourself. It will stop you spending money on modifying (or upgrading bikes) because you should realise that the rider can be upgraded infinitely...

Thug, whats your opinion on the character of the cross plane compared to the flat plane of the 6R. The sound is quiet unique as well 😈

Shit bro all these sportbikes are WAY beyond me !!! I can tell you squirrelly and unforgiving is really good terminology ! fucking bike wants out from underneath me I am 155 pounds I have never had a bike in my life including my sixes I have had to respect and I have them completely modded without getting into the engine (my zx6r’s I mean ) I honestly just have never had to respect one I just smashed through all the gears this thing is so so so different if I even breathe on the throttle wrong this fucker is trying to shoot to the moon 💯💯💯 ITS A TRIP AND I COULD NEVER GO BACK TO A 6 PERIOD !!!!! The cross plane engine has a crazy sound I just wanted a $3700.00Austin Racingfull exhaust with ceramic coated pipe work including headers is being hand fabricated in great Britain I ordered it on October 31 so now I am just patiently waiting !!!!!

Love it! Good input 😈 I will have to test ride one before I decide between an R1 or ZX10 when time comes. I have the cross plane in the MT but it’s all crazy midrange Curious of the R1. Enjoy bro!! Cheers! 💪 post pics when you get that exhaust mounted!
