My ZX10 and my winter hack bandit 6

[ben@gerickes]

With the crushing disapointment of not being able to ride today I decided to tuck the ZX10 away in the garage for winter where she will loose all her road fairings, lights etc and will transform into a a full on track bike. Shopping list includes harris rear sets + quickshifter. Ohlins steering dampner, K-Tech rear shock and front fork internals... New rubber of some kind and full track fairings! Summer next year is gonna rock!
So here are the last pics of it before it goes into hybernation and the good old bandit 600 takes over as the work horse. Bought it for £750 with FSH 29000miles on it... Runs sweet. Its tatty cosmetically but it does what it needs to do and has a huge cage on it in case i happen to drive into any cars on the way to work.
:) Roll on 2008

So you not riding the Ninja on the road next year then ben???

[ben@gerickes]

well im torn realli....

I realli rode like an idiot this year on the road. My mate had a bad accident and I think that the ninja is a bit much for the road. I just think that my luck is gonna run out sooner or later and why push it when I can ride how I want on the track....

Ont he other hand I may make it so that the bike has all the trick bits on and just remove the body work for the track and still ride it to meets, and take the agression out on the track....

I dooont knowwwww! lol

Yep thats the way i look at it now, been thinking about just doing the trackdays next year but havent decided yet, will see what happens when the warmer weather comes & i get back on the track.....

As long as i have the funds to finance the track days i will stop the road riding...so will see what happens..
