Just got it today--a 2008 with 2000 miles.

Wow! Maybe I'm shaped funny (not maybe) but the ergos are miles better for me than an R6 or ZX6R. Never been on a cbr.

Absolutely love the bike. Will be perfect for my track bike.

Gratuitous pic of the streetfighter....Jack

Well done on your purchase.

I agree with you about the R6 but I sit very comfortably on a ZX6

I kinda like the obnoxious MGP wannabe riding position of the R6...

Anyway, sweet deal.
Since its gonna be a track bike, you've gotta ditch those tires for something better right? Could make for a good photo op... I'm just sayin.

question from another (almost) new owner
Had a '99 ZX9R myself... senior citizen killed it for me but I walked away...knock on wood...

Wondering how you like the engine / torque vs the Ninja? very close to finalizing the purch of a new '09

only other bike on my shortlist was a GSXR 750... liked the midrange
