Practically? The American Dollar IS worthless in the UK. I purchased a Morgan Carbtune to sync throttle bodies and it came to $132 U.S..
Sad part is, I think the exchange rate will go even lower this year.

Now you really are gutting me !!! I went to cadwell Park last summer with a mate who has a Gixxer 750 and it is sweet !!!! I would have def been very very interested !!
bugger lol
:thumbup:
Anyhow.........
I am now the proud owner of a super dooper fast CBR600RR5
I don't pick it up til Monday night so 2 sleeps til xmas
It is an absolute beauty with low miles and was cherished by a female new rider who had a 33bhp restrictor on it .... It comes off on Monday and then the horns are coming out !!!!!
Can't wait to share my new grin machine with you... Thinking of naming it Leo or Vince in memory of the last love of my lifes sweet a55
I'll get some pics on here on Tuesday hopefully.... Looking forward to the April meet

I tried a mates R6 mate and it was awesome.... But ... I thought rather more track orientated and not as forgiving on our Uk crapy roads... The CBR seems to have the best of both worlds but I have no doubt that the R6 would be a better grin machine on the track ... I feel I'll have a happy balance with the CBR
I was also very tempted with the zx6-r but same applies with that too ... only my oppinions though

Sweet ride JC look forward to the pics
FWIW, I just sold my 2005 FZ6... I was almost all set to buy the 2008 Aprilia Shiver but can't seem to get away from the FZ6. Since the '08 Cobalt Blue is so much better than the '07 blue, I'm totally sold on the '08 FZ6. It also helps that the buyer didn't want the FE kit, the camera mount or the racetech spring kit I just received in the mail so I have three mods to put into the bike on day one!
Congrats on the new ride! You can't go wrong with the CBR either! Very nice bike!!

Re: Here she is .....
J I am delighted for ya. How much, how many miles, where is the FZ6 badge?
I am deeply touched by the prime front lounge carpet you have provided for her comfort.
Have you moved as you didn't used to have a garage?

Very cool bike. Excellent colour. :thumbup:
You'll have to go back and get the rest of the seat to replace that bit of lino.

Re: Here she is .....
Its a 2005 edition ... 2nd model of the 3 that are currently out, 4200 miles on the clock .... Owner was a girl that has bought a Ninja 250 instead ....
Pics don't do it justice ... was pretty dark in the garage and taken with the flash .... I'll get some nice ones up when its sunny ...
Neil ... I paid £4250 mate ... seen cheaper but this really is immaculate, was in a heated garage and polished weekly !! very little use from the last owner.... I'm a happy bear !!!
P.S ... Rides like it has horns waiting to come out of the tank :thumbup:
