    Moving On

    Hi all,

    Over the last 4 years I have changed bikes too frequently for my bank balance and tend to get the itch about now (comes with pre winter depression I suspect). Consequently I have to say that I have today P/X'd my CR for a Kawasaki Z1000SX...so I guess that means I won't be qualified to contribute much to this forum in future. I would just like to say thanks to everybody for all the tips and advice and also for new friends - in regard to which I hope some of us will still meet for a ride and natter now and then.

    Ride safe folks. :158:

    Joe

    Hi Joe I hope you enjoy the Kwack in safety. Your valuable input will be really missed on this forum

    Got it today..late afternoon so just got home before it was dark. Found it very easy to ride, totally different to CR of course and no point in comparing - they are just so different.
    Doing ride to the wall in the morning and this will be nice steady bimble to get well used to it - might turn up the volume a bit on the way back.

    It's not actually a green machine..is one of these.
