240 is OK. My SV650S can do 245 though. That proves Suzuki superiority over Kawasaki, right DK?

Only in Greely is there a motorcycle parked next to a tractor when you're taking pictures to sell it.

that guy needs to be introduced to the period.
See what he did is actually paint the bike to look like it's got stickers and even tho each sticker is +10hp, it's a little known fact that when you paint them on it DOUBLES their hp. totally.

funny... I was thinking the same thing about the rear view camera...
I guess it's important to see all those other racers you pass when doing 240! :dunno:

240 seems a little on the slow side if you ask me, maybe it has a couple fouled spark plugs? :dunno:
Just an FYI I think the guy or his friend is on this forum, he posted pics with the Hong Kong plastics.

^^^There is no need to educate Kawi riders :)
However taking Honda MotoGP replica plastics and sticking them on a Kawi is utterly retarded.

245kph*0.62mph/kph=151.9mph which my bike still can't reach...
Oh, and DK, your psychiatrist called this morning. Turns out you left your clue at his office. He is hoping you can stop by for a huge dose of reality before you start talking to the weather fairies. :)

That 240 is in his dreams for a basically stock 01 ZX12R. I doubt it would see 180...........

It is a ninja and those things are mysterious. You don't own a ninja you just get to come along for the ride.

I've already ridden that one. It wasn't my favorite. It tended to wallow a bit if you got too hot into a corner. Also, it wasn't happy if you over revved it. It had some nice low end grunt, and the top end really hit hard, but the mid range was lacking. Finally, it was temperamental and could be hard to start, especially if you had just been flogging it and stopped to take a break. At that point, you had to get a friend or two to help you push it so that you could bump start it. Not too bad though, for a guy like me.

Haven't you heard of the GTRA, the Greeley Tractor Racing Association. By the look of it that is probably a 250 mph tractor, obviously the reason he is selling his slow ninja.
