Cradley Kawasaki?
That's the one. Bought my ER from them 3 years ago when I passed my test.Agreed about the exhaust, I keep watching videos trying to decide which one I want more, the scorpion gp exhaust is winning so far, mainly for the looks.
My camera skills aren't brilliant.. Will post more pictures when I collect

Well done! Hope you enjoy it. Looks like you picked a perfect day to pick it up too.

Well done you. Hope you have many happy miles together
Thanks both, 200 miles down so far - 400 to go for the first service Spent some time cleaning it and my dads Z1000 this afternoon amazing how they're so similar yet so different

Forgot to add photo with my mate in every midlands bikers favourite photo spot on Clee Hill

Just over a month in and I'm still enjoying it. Had a venture into wales towards Barmouth which was a nice 220 mile round trip.
The first service was done last week too - I'm starting to use some more of the revs, had to buy some more r&g goodies to celebrate, not fitted the tail tidy yet but can't wait to see what it looks like without that chunk of plastic hanging off the back

Cheers all still loving it at the minute - it's a completely different animal to the ER6, inspires much more confidence on the brakes and in the twisties. It's the power wheelies that I'm not used to 
I had use of an SV after I passed my test before I got my own bike and obviously there was less wind if you tuck in at motorway speeds but the Z seems quite comfy at 70. I used to get neck ache on the ER after an hour or so at those speeds which I've not had yet with the Z. Give it a test ride... you know you want to! I was definitely not getting a new bike this year or next... Never mind
