2 Weeks in

Well i'm 2 weeks into my ZX7R life.

This bike is awesome. I love it more everyday.
I use it to get to work everyday (about 15 miles) and I can't believe how happy I am when I:

1- Open the garage and thankfully she's still there and not in bits in some little shits garden!!
2- Fire her up (sounds good with the Carbon Harris)
3- Warmed the engine and tyres (which is difficult in 3c) and open the throttle for the first time that day.

The only bike that comes near is my old RSV1000, but with that you always had the nervous "Whats that noise?", "How much for a service?" etc etc..

Bloody love it
Tris

Think I tempted fate!!

Indicator and Number plate bracket snapped of yesterday! Don't know how, just got home without a number plate and the indicator hanging by the hugger!

And today coming of a roundabout, traffic everywhere, freezing cold, I accelerated in 2nd (slowly) from about 30 and the back wheel span out sideways on a patch of either ice or diesel! God knows how I didn't come off...if it had been the front wheel the bike would have had a different fairing pattern.

Oh well...thats commuting through London for you....
