Buffalo,
Are you sleeping with Todd? Be honest? But because you fail to read the full scope of my comments...I love all bikes. I wish I could own more than one. It's not about coming here for my tips on my bike, I happen to think it runs pretty good for 899 cc's. It's about comparisons to other bikes, mods that the Busa'a are taken to, times and speeds guys are running on theirs, and just plain bike talk. But since you seem to be a 9R guru, can you help me with mine, sir?
As for my ZX-9, I think it's a great bike. Is there better, of course. Buffalo, 9.95 is a very respectable time for that bike. I only wish I could get the horsepower that your 98 had and shed the 70 plus pounds of the 98's and newer. I see you race at Firebird, that's not to far for me to drive.......hmmmmm.
As for the ZX-12 being a better bike, we will see when it gets released. Did I say my comments were gospel, no. Did I say they came from a good source, yes. I also remember apologizing ahead of time if I gave inaccurate information. I do think this, though, when and if the bike does come out, it will up the ante. It's not cost effective for Kawasaki not to do so. This is big business and Kawi is too smart to release a big bore bike that won't compete.
Buffy the ZX-9 slayer, thanks for the respect!
Kevin
