Just finish spraying my side panel, not really pro stuff but good enough for me?

Also spray heat paint to my 8 pieces of collets for the exhaust, to prevent further rusting.

Try charging my battery, boy think "spoil" liao.........have to buy a new want.......

 

In s'pore:

1) Where can I get "racing strips" like those decal or paste on type of stickers (waterproof), anybody got any idea?

 

2) I am also looking for "coloured" fuel line? Anybody can tell me where to buy?

 

3) I am looking for "Enamel paint", I want "gold" and "black" colour.

Throttle, those r Good choice of bikes ! I always love the Streetfighter looks of the z1000. I think u still can hit some gd prestine Zeds if u r not hurry to get one.

[Throttle]

i no hurry at all becos buy already park at home and collect dust anyway. hahahah. Like the look of the Z1000, and the fact that it is Kawasaki. I do like Kawasaki.

 

how about TW? that looks like a really fun bike to ride around, go supermarket etc... I really dont need anything more than a 200cc in reality.

Just something to bump around. how much is new TW? anyone

Cos once u go onboard a Kawasaki, u will always remember the Kwak power.

 

Tw is totally a fun beach bike. Still remember my modded TW-FM3x5x something. Not too bad for marketing but after awhile. U will sell that TW for something naughty!

[Throttle]

kawasakis have a special appeal, i cant explain.

used to ride the ZZR1100 and the ZX9R.

Splendid powerful machines, they were.

 

The problem i have is that, i know deep down that whatever i buy will end up collecting more dust than burning more rubber.

 

Maybe that means i should just keep my thunderbird lah....

U r one old timer of Kwakers! Ha ha... I love those ZX9r and someone is selling one prestine condition ZX9r with a pair of Performance Machine wheelsets and Yoshi Tri-cone end can for just 5.5K! 5.5K also comes with extra goodies like Dyna CDI ,orig. CDI,power commander,orig. wheelsets... Still got alot to list but I'm most interested in those Bling Bling PM wheelsets!!! Anyone keen on ZX9r and perhaps we can combine to purchase the bike and I take those Bling Bling rims.

Do u experience that any problem on a ZX9r previously ?

 

ZZR1100 is a different machine. Big,robust Rhino on steriods if wanna go. Those r a legend and I still can remember "NINJA" on the fairing when I was in my Secondary school. Cool:angel:

 

Anyway Dust is not a issue but Rust is a problem. I will try to avoid machines with too many Chrome bits nowadays. No time to polish here an there and definitely cost anyone alot of $$$ when comes to replacement. Well Throttle, if u got no time to take care of the Dust,then U must spend more time riding your bike hard and burn those old rubber compound!

[Throttle]

cannot leh Desky.....

I havent got much time as i travel a lot and i got myself a beautiful baby girl now.....

 

The ZX9R can be considered one of my all time faves, i used it basically for the track, running stock except for braided hoses and track tyres. Hits 300km/hr easily although the most i went was 280km/hr (still lots more room to go) totally faultless and comfortable enough to go real long. easy maintenance and fuss free. smooth and reliable.

 

The ZZR11 was my touring bike when i was much younger and had more time.

It WAS the bike then. Nothing could beat it on a straight line.....Heavy and rough but full of Kawasaki character. Sold it to Joe White (some forumers would remember him) with loads of goodies including a vance and hines CDI, Ohlins adjustable etc etc.....

 

The only reason i keep a bike is so that i can tell people i'm a biker still, heh heh heh he heh ehehehh..
