I like!

Are you having trouble finding an open spot in the class?

kkim · December 23rd, 2008, 06:39 PM

Ah, an SE owner... now we can get all of the questions answered.

Bike looks good... it must be fast, too, being green and all.

Does less green = less fast? How exactly does that work? How much green would i need on my bike for it to be fast?

For your bike, a lot!

When you get back from break, even the slow black one will be faster than yours with the QC AP on it!!

They had to tone down the green for 09, so while it's still faster than the other colors, it's just not as fast as the all green 08's. The owners of the other color bikes went crying to Kawasaki to even things out. Even to this day you find disgruntled owners of non green bikes posting about how their bikes are faster... poor souls... I really feel for them.

Sorry, James... carry on.

Fellows,

kkim has just been in the ozone too long. That's one of the problems commuting up and down that mountain where kkim works. When he gets rid of that extra oxygen atom and comes back to earth, he's really going to feel bad, knowing how much faster the BLACK bikes are!!

look... no matter what the color, all these bikes are a lot of fun and in doing so breeds loyalty among their owners.... understandable. But, just approach this with a clear head and know that the green bikes are the fastest... it's true!

When I first seen the 09 colors, I really didnt like that paint scheme. But, seeing pics out in the real world... it looks really nice

Big brother zx10r got the same paint, they gave the 6 a stupid monster scheme

I agree completely. This is one of the first bikes where I actually like the rim tape. Generally, its not my style.

Nemy · January 2nd, 2009, 11:05 PM

post more pictures!!!

lol its the only thing i have until my SE gets in!

but i love the rim tape... and the black/white panels are just screaming for decals...

workdaddy · January 3rd, 2009, 09:50 AM

I love the new colr scheme.... Kelly, just so you know, with that hint of black on the SE it makes it faster than the green ones

LOL!
And we need more pics...

Kurosaki · January 3rd, 2009, 10:41 AM

Man, I wouldn't mind having that paint scheme in a black/red/white.

Looks good, *even in green*

Sailariel · January 3rd, 2009, 03:08 PM

Hk, Mine came with the Monster Graphics and the dealer said it was a special edition. Special edition or not, I was not going to ride around advertising that bilge. A hair dryer took care of the stickers nicely.

if you dont want the monster decals I'll take em!

CRXTrek · January 3rd, 2009, 10:50 PM

I don't believe you can reuse them.
I know the Ninja stickers i removed
were destroyed in the process

Sailariel · January 4th, 2009, 11:26 AM

They are not usable. I did leave some of the decals alone.
