Hi Guys 'n' Gals,

I'm really stuck on what to do... I've had my '99 Kawasaki ZX9R Ninja for just over 4 years now, but for the last couple of years havn't really ridden it much. It's in immaculate condition with just 10,700k dry miles on the clock.

I really want to start modding the Lexus, and this is the only way to get some cash together - Mrs9r rekkons I should get rid of it, but I really can't make my mind up - I've been a biker for 22 years and love the Ninja to bits... hence the difficult decision cry.gif
what would you lot do??

Tony.

get rid of the mrs then you can have both biggrin.gif

i`m an ex-biker (2 yrs ago)myself and found that i used the bike for work but car for lugging.
M1 on a bike is so much more fun and easier on a bike!!
unfortunately i don`t do any work journeys anymore that the car can`t do and me and the wife share the car censored.gif (she works nights).
so can`t justify the toy......besides a ninja ain`t exactly shaft drive is it? biggrin.gif
i would suggest you check out whether you could jsut afford to have a blast on a rented Duc on a trackday if you feel the need!!!!!

Keep it mate. I've had my blade for nearly 6 years, hardly use it. I never want to sell it. You know you'll regret it if you do and the resale will be censored.gif , low miles or not. yucky.gif .

Be like me flog the Ninja get an old Honda or something, 750-4 you can get a resonable one for under a grand, bits are easy to get. Then you got a bike and some spare cash for mods biggrin.gif
