PING! Turbo810 How are you liking the 08?

[Tybalt]

I saw that you just bought the new 08 in Orange, Congrats, can you tell us about the bike? feedback, handling, style, more pics would be great:cheers:

Thanks for congrats.

The bike is a lot heavier then my 1000 was. Also I don't really remember what my ZX12 was like anymore.

But-

The bike is very refined. It is insainly smooth. I was rolling down the freeway doing what I thought was 85. Turns out I was doing 115.

It turns in very well for a bike it's size. Low speed handling is much better then the 1st gen. Also very stable in the turns.

Power is fantastic. At about 5/8 throttle in 1st the front wheel starts heading skyward. It accelerates very fast.

I wish I could give you a better report. But it was very windy today. All in all I am very happy with the bike.

Turbo,
Did you remove the plastic, hang down rear plate holder, or was there none fitted to the US model? If so, is it just a couple of screws?

[Turbo810]

The rear fender has 4 bolts holing it on. The plate light is plugged in under the left sidde of the tail section.
