Dazed and confused....

illrational · December 18th, 2011, 10:06 AM

I traded in my sexy ass 09 250 for grown and sexy 11 zx-6r....was so excited to get the 6r finally until im standing there over the 6r and instead of dude going over the 6r with me he wants to talk about my 250 and did i do all the work myself and it finally hits me that i just traded in a part of me...im sure the 6r will fill that void but at that point i was like whoa!!!!Now on the ride home i realized WOW WHAT A F@@@IN BIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AMAZING JUST AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!I am going to miss my 250 by what i have now on tap and i have yet to even tocuh since im breaking it in has me excited. Now i am happy that i did get the 250 first because it taught me respect for the machines and helped me develop as a rider but i am excited!!!!!!!! Can't wait til the break in period is done so i can open it up but until then ride safe ride hard and ride long!!!!!!

Congratulations! PICTURES!

saxnbass · December 18th, 2011, 08:56 PM

Wait, you're in Orlando? You know about our Thursday meet ups? I'd love to meet up with you and see the 6r in person. Maybe even test ride it, if you'd be up for that.

r311music · December 18th, 2011, 09:05 PM

Another zx6r upgrade! I love my 650, but sometimes I wish I would have just went for the 6r. Seems like such a sweet bike! Btw as Eric mentioned, if you are from Orlando, check out the central florida riders thread in the regional section. Also we do meet up at a Steak N' Shake in winter park on thursdays to chill and catch up. You should come sometime so we can check out the new ride!

Yasko · December 18th, 2011, 09:43 PM

Congratulations.

What did they give you for the Ninja? (sorry if that was rude of me.)

I love to go fast, so I could never get a zx-6r.

Cazper · December 18th, 2011, 10:09 PM

Congrats on the upgrade... should show us the most recent pic of your 250 before you got rid of it... and then the new ride

NDspd · January 25th, 2012, 09:44 PM

So what was the biggest change you experienced moving over?

illrational · January 25th, 2012, 10:27 PM

Most obvious answer should be power but the delivery is either really smooth or my 250 groomed my throttle hand beautifully....turn radius is wider it seems to me or I need to get better grasp for machine....I only have 1164 miles so far...I tell you what if u don't pay attention ill be riding around 100+ all the time
