I should have mentioned that this bloke can ride (ZX9) and is a magazine tester and for him to announce it was a close call. It was a close call.
Says a lot for ABS and traction control though Smile

He says the bike is very nice and easy to ride until you ask it to show you 193hp. Then its tear off undies time affraid Very Happy Laughing

Man that was close. I was on a ride coming down from Falls Creek once and this idiot was over my side of the road. I punched the driver side mirror off his door.

We have all had cars on the wrong side of the road but that was bloody close. I'll post up his may review as I'm sure it will get a mention.
