I was thinking the same about you!

You do realise that I'm old enough to be you father.

I might be sunshine.

I might be old enough to be your auntie. Think about that for a moment.

Very nice.

i had a K3 from new for 3 1/2 years

Awesome bike, you will have some great times on that. Still miss the bike now as the fireblade doesn't have the mental screaming nature that the GSXR had.

I found it comfortable, extremely quick but most of all great fun.

I had to rotate the brake & clutch levers down as far as they could go, once I did that it stopped any numb wrist.

Would love to get another as a fun bike, I think later ones are too race focused. IMO The bike you have there is one of the best for UK roads.

Got a few things on it like Tri oval exhuast, a tail tidy, small indicators and a few other things that i dont anything about!
By the looks of it you have a double bubble screen (essential), harris rear hanger, Rear hugger, & renthal sprockets & chain.

I had those and a tri oval can on mine.smile

ETA I missed the hugger & Chain.

Exaclty the reason why i didnt buy a newer one.

I rode others but was not comfortable on them. Rode this and it was far easier than the others.
