A remeet with an old friend

[DennisTheMenace]

Stopped at a bike dealer in Dorchester today just for a nosey and there amoungst all the bikes a little silver ZX6 caught my eye , my old kwack , im soo tempted to see if the chap wants to swap for the ace , had loads of good times on the 6 and i do miss the noise and flame spitting , the ace is an excellent bike but the ZX6 had bags of character , time for some seroius thinking.

Bloody funny when the bloke came up and asked if i liked the bike , i Said has it got any history , a bit he replied , want to know all of it i said ,he looked a bit gobsmacked then :hehe:

Get it mate!

[Andymx5]

You could get another Zx6... but surely you'd want it in Green??

[Mad Dave]

Good point, green ones are faster after all.

Dennis - you've been banging on about how you miss your 6R ever since you got rid of it, and how often do you REALLY need to travel above 160mph?

[Steve_T]

Well mate, did you buy her or not?

[DennisTheMenace]

Not yet mate still going to pop in again on saturday , weighing the pros and cons up , at the mo my old kwack comes out on top , but i like the ace ,the brakes on the ace are in a different legue alltogether touch the front and BAM! its on its nose , the 6 took a bit more effort although nothing a good set of braided hoses wouldnt sort, the ace feels planted when pressing on even when your well into 3 figure speeds , but it lacks the zx6 fiestyness intake growl and exhust note , the 6r felt like you could grab it by the scruff of the neck and chuck it about , the ac e in comparison is like a executive car , does the same job with minium fuss , i think im missing the rawness , which is odd as the ZX6 is'nt a stripped down race bike , but its a fantastic road bike

Looks like i could be parting with some cash this weekend
