finally got a bike. 56k.

[dover]

I traded my 5.0 for my buddies 03 ZX-6r. So far it has an airshifter, Jardine Exhaust, PC, extended swing arm, and lowering links. It rides great.

Shinko what? Pretty bike... Im not a fan of the stretching, but thats just me.

[V4junkie]

Are those DOT race tires? I don't recognize the pattern.

EDIT: Ooooh Shinko . . . haven't heard anything good about those.

Depending on what you plan on doing with it I would probably ditch the extendo swingarm. If you want to go around any corners it is not helping you.

First bike right? Congratulations! You'll never forget your first love. (dang it, that sounded gay)

[TwiztedRabbit]

congrats and +1 to V4 well said

..in a straight line...

I found a stock swing arm for $40 bucks online so I'm going to pick that up for when I do decide to hit turns alittle better. The tires are on there way out I am going to replace them as well I just don't know much about bike tires compared to car tires, so any recommendations would be awesome. I also need to do a full service on it (i.e. oil,plugs,wires) any recommendations on places?

[SuperHawk]

Looks alright, congrats on the first bike.

How many miles?

Was it dragged? Airshifter, extended swingarm, etc...?

[FocusDave01]

looks good...gratz man!!

[justin0469]

+1 on the tire and swingarm comments. nice looking bike otherwise!

+1 for yota, he helped me out big time on my first bike a couple years ago, good dude.

I assuming at one point and time it was. Apparently the motor has been rebuilt and currently has 6k on it. It reads 28k on the body.

I got the servicing it appears taken care of so no worries on that end. But I still do need some recommendations on tires?

[yotaman88210]

Tires depend on how you ride. With that swing arm, you might as well get something a little harder. Once you get the swing arm switched out, just go with some Michelin Pilot Powers.

[warpspeed]

Michelin, pirelli, and continental tires are good.

Nice ninja

[SuperHawk]

its been awhile, but i think pilot power something or others is what i ran on my old one, had no issues with them. I will be needing new tires for the bike i picked up yesterday, so i'm gonna start pricing them soon as well.

[that dude]

buy some good tires, remove the extended swingarm and raise it back to stock height..as far as plugs wires and oil change, do it yourself..its not that hard, plus it will save you some coin

[schmuckingham]

If you need anything or help working on the bike, let me know Dover.

I would have kept the 5.0

[Harb67]

Nice bike Lose the swing arm and you'll see why bikes > cars As for tires, you can't go wrong with Michelin Pilot Power's or Pirelli Diablo Rosso's. Anything softer/more exotic (like Corsa 3's or Power 2CT's) would be overkill and expensive.

[vroddave]

I love the bike until I saw that damn hideous swing arm.

Smuck your such a sucker for big motors. But I am 2. I do like his cobra

[madcat6183]

Congrads bro! I cant see the pics at work but I ll check them later tonight. Either way, hit me up anytimg you wanna ride, Im only 10 away!

[progrmr]

BTW' date=' what does the "56k" mean in the title of this thread?[/quote']

It means anyone with a 56K modem should stay out of the thread because of the pics

[V4junkie]

Oh no, I still know quite a few people on dial-up.

[Disclaimer]

Do they ride around with horses and buggies?
