2001 model, 1 owner and 1660 miles on the clock when i bought it, got it for a great price, only downside being the forks were pitted to hell making them leak.

ebay pics






Hadn't passed my test so did a few minor things to keep me interested.
Tinted double bubble screen
R&G crash protectors

passed my test so bought some new forks with K-tec internals, also got a Art can for £60, not too shabby, cleaned it up and came up great, good old autosol











Plans are

Panel Filter
Dynojet
Repaint the wheels as usual kawak paint has flaked (still undecided which
colour)
Tailtidy

suppose, perhaps spray the "ninja"&"zx6r" stickers to match the wheels?

i mean if you were to go for a bright colour.

firstly, sorry for the shitty pics, didnt have my decent camera to hand.
right...so old paint was fllaking on the wheels (common kawak thing) decided to paint them....wouldn't be in my nature to be subtle so...

old wheel off,preped and primed



Boy spraying away

also replaced spark plugs, oil and filter, will be ordering a pipercrss filter soon and will get the carbs balanced.

got a carbon yoke cover too, feeling the need for lots of carbon now!



doing the front wheel tonight as ran out of time lastnight! fair to say it looks mega imo though.
