RavingDavids comes to play!

It's a 2002 Kaswasaki ZX-6R Ninja 636 A1P. Sadly apart from a ride or two through London traffic (that was something else). And riding back down the motorway not had much time to play with the bad weather since buying it last week. But can't wait to see what it's like in the dry. Matt.

So you did survive the London filtering! Only need one lesson in it, and your riding goes up ten fold LOL. Mark's the perfect riding partner to help you achieve it too :)

Matt done well, the first day and a half he was within inches........;)

As to the bike, not on his original list, but a nice upgrade alround, and quite possible the cleanest / most unmolested example I've seen in a few year.

Cheers Mark.

Why did you sell the sv?

I sold the SV in about october last year, i knew to improve my riding skills and learn new things i needed an upgrade/change of bike and engine.

Yeh was very intresting and has taught me alot more about judgement of gaps and overtaking distances on a bike and i noticed doing one quick lap of the course at the end of last week the difference, was much fun over there though.

I think they're STILL 9 years on a fairly good up to date looking bike especially considering that age.

Nice one MATT?? now dont you let RD lead you astray. RD being RavingDavids?

sweeet matt, needs a new can though :D One of the first things i will be doing :D
