Very nice - looks fun. always wanted to give a 9R a squirt.
Any plans or just keeping it a stocker?

You know me the local bike whore..... No plans at all on this it is how it will stay.
Although from what I have seen lately on ebay , if I remove the fairings from a totally original bike , polish the frame and stick some motorcross bars on it i should be able to pull an easy 7 may 8 grand [:0][B)].(that should get a reaction [:0][:0][:0] )
I love street fighters but sometimes things a better left stock.
and in this case zx12 you would have to agree yeah ;)

Mate - there is nothing wrong with plastic and clip ons in my book. I always felt more comfortable pushing my stock VTR round corners then the fightered 12r. I prefer the lower centre of gravity clip-ons give you when you hang off the side and I reckon Des prooves all too often the right simple mods on a clean (relatively) stock bike can make a stand out difference.

As for the subtle dig - i'm not touching that one ;)

Fuckin ell Devo! What number is this one? Ur a mad man...
7 or 8 grand? R u for real? Dont sell urself out too cheap mate, did u see that 750 slingshot on there not long ago? U'd pull 8 or 9 if it was a full trick 'fighter' with motocross bars n enduro headlight! Lol!

Sorry Guys , I see some fighters and think yep worth every penny what they want but I do laugh when I see some people build a fighter and straight away think $$$$$$ .
So far the best streetfighter I have ever seen is Hooligans , argue with me you just may but that is a bike that is worth what he would want ;)

I got a soft spot for the 9R. I had a 2000 (first of the twin headlights) as my first REAL road bike.

Nice bike Devo.

Nice one dave, I personally hope you don't fighter it, it's in too good a condition to mess with.
How many ozzies, if you don't mind me askin........
Looks like a very well kept, low k's? bike.
Don't tell me, your brother has too many bikes,:D and had to move this one on, seems to be a common theme around you[^]
