New Purchase - TheOriginalMrP - 24 Jan 2017 Hi All... and happy new year... A little late I know... I know many of you are not into Motorbikes, except with the exception of Dan Willis..... But I thought i'd share with you my new purchase, due for collection on 1st March when the 17 plates are issued.  This is a Kawasaki ZZR Performance Sport.. Specs as follows... 1441CC 0-60 in 2.5 seconds Factory restricted, but without this limiter, it can exceed 200MPH It is still the worlds fastest production bike, since taking the title from the Suzuki Hayabusa in 2012 ABS, Traction and Launch control.. if you are brave enough. Akropovic Silencers. Brembo Brakes Ohlins Adjustable Shock on rear. Wind cheating double bubble screen.... Hopefully, the plate will read MY17 ZZR .... im awaiting conformation of this.  Needless to say, i will be taking my time on this for the first few trips.... For anyone interested, check out the videos on youtube! RE: New Purchase - Chris Williams - 24 Jan 2017 Now that is nice............. RE: New Purchase - Stuart Rees - 24 Jan 2017 That is nice Ben!  Hopefully gonna do MOD 1 & 2 before July as my CBT runs out then! Catch up soon RE: New Purchase - TheOriginalMrP - 24 Jan 2017 Cheers Guys. Yeah Stu, I only done mine in 2013. I had a years practice on a cbt certificate. Are you going to go direct access so you can ride anything? RE: New Purchase - Stuart Rees - 24 Jan 2017 Ye would like to get the full licence. I'm into the classics more than super bikes at the mo. Nice collection of toys you got there mate.. Stu RE: New Purchase - TheOriginalMrP - 25 Jan 2017 Well you know me :-) I think I might have secured a beautiful Sinclair C5. A very desired taste I know, but another DeLorean in its own right... more ozone friendly too, and no chance of blockrot lol :-) I'm hoping my Suzuki will become classic as it was a limited run of the GSXR600. For what they'd give me as a part exchange, I'd rather keep it! RE: New Purchase - Dan Willis - 25 Jan 2017 I saw one of those at our local biker cafe (Loomies); the owner was very much in love with his new toy... Very nice; enjoy! I'm hoping for a new(ish) Fireblade in the future. RE: New Purchase - TristanC - 09 Dec 2017 Well, I missed this thread! I am a biker, at least since 2010  Lovely looking bike there dude. I’ve had a GSX, Honda VFR 1200 and recently 3 Harley Davidsons. But...... I really need a DeLorean. I’ve only waited all my life!! Lol So....... if anyone knows anyone wanting a Harley..... mine is for sale. Hoping to use the sale to part fund my first DeLorean. Especially as I’ve now injured my leg and find it difficult to ride now... Enjoy your crotch rocket dude!! And ride safe.
