best bike? Hmm...

...Probably Karen from my old secondary school - reliable performance, long travel, if well worn suspension, a little lumpy if not warmed up properly and a great shaft drive... don't even ask about the slick shifting box! Oops, I'll get my coat... :D :D :D
 
Make mine a ZZR1100…..

I passed my test cough cough years ago, sold my AR125 for GPZ600 - what a bike:bow
Turned that in for the ZX10 when in came out :bow got the 500 mile first service done and immediately went and got a 3 month ban for doing 70 in a 30 - I really hadn't expected the acceleration - awesome!
That went for the ZZR1100 which went for a Ninja 750 and now if I had the money I would certainly be looking at the GTR1400 :rob

Is that enough plugs Mr Kawasaki?
