    Cool New Toy!

    So, my 22nd bday was the other day and after spending more than a yr off the track on 2 wheels I decided to pick up a race bike and reward myself with something small.
    Its very clean and sharp but the plastics on it aren't great, deffinately going to get a new set of skins and custom paint job after it hits the ground once. Its got all the basics, race pads, rear sets, exhaust, tune, gearing....


    Not even in the same league as what I used to ride but I plan on creating a small income stream from this bike...










    Going to get some SICK gopro vids with this thing!

    Got a trackday coming up on the 29th here.

    Pardon my ignorance, but is that a ZX10R?

    Thanks guys, and no, its a 600, did not want a 1000 for this things purpose.

    Spent 2 hrs going over every single nut and bolt today getting her prepped. All it needs is an oil change and new tires fitted and shes ready to rip.

    I intend to start a rental business for race bikes incase yours blows up, crash it, etc or want to try out trackdays before comitting to an expensive bike or using your 25k$ ducati on the track.

    But that's why we buy Ducatis! lol

    That's a neat idea though. Are there other businesses like this around?

    Race bike rental service... damn, I can only imagine calling an insurance agent about that one.
