Ive joined the IL4 Club...
OK, so it is 13 years old and weights 200kg, but it is called a Ninja in the states. Not gonna get rid of the SV though, the ZZR feels like a barge compared to my curvy. nice and smooth on the motorway though (as you'd expect from somethiong that weighs as much as an elephant)

Re: Ive joined the IL4 Club...
So will this be your new workhorse, or weekend toy?
Looks in good nick for 13 years. |

Re: Ive joined the IL4 Club...
I liked them when they first came out. Almost bought one. Ended up with a CBR 6 instead. Very reliable machine so I am told.

Nice bike! Does this mean you have actually picked it up now?

Re: Ive joined the IL4 Club...
Ninja's are the best bike ever built aren't they!
This is until I can afford a different one of course.. |

Re: Ive joined the IL4 Club...
Nice bike.
I can confirm that I will be a IL4 owner for the next 3 weeks also as it is going to take that long for suzuki to ship in a k7 exhaust!

Re: Ive joined the IL4 Club...
Yep. Picked it u on sunday. Rode all the way to Northampton 2 up on K's 125 - i'm so glad I was driving, the pillion seat is like a plank of wood.
It's not taxed so I'm not gonna ride it yet. This will be the new hack / long distance tool, as it's not as flickable as the SV, so I imagine not as fun through the twisties. Looks like ti could do with a new rear shock and probably progressive springs in the front end, but I'll see how it goes. Still does 156mph though |

Re: Ive joined the IL4 Club...
2 up on a 125....thats always nasty. If its 33bhp then its passable, but if its a 12bhp, then you have my admiration.

Re: Ive joined the IL4 Club...
It is only 12bhp (L plates and all). We did manage 75mph on one stretch of the M40, although most of the time it struggled to do 65. First gear is so tall as well, you change up into second and it just feels like you have no power - very frustrating. Baby blade my ar*e!!!
