Hello everybody. I ended up with a new bike recently, after I was bored at work and went "shopping". I ended up with a white K9 750. Absolutely love the bike. Much better riding position than the last bike I had (Kawasaki ZX6-R). I rode my buddies GSX-R600 and his GSX-R1000 and decided to buy in the middle. I don't understand why anybody would want a liter bike, way too much thinking/control required. To me that takes away some of the freedom/relaxation of riding. I also like corners more than straights so I guess that does come in to play as well.
So far I have done the following mods:
Full M4 exhaust (thinking about changing this out as I like my hearing)
PC V
BMC Filter
Hotbody Double Bubble windscreen
" Rear Fender Eliminator
" Hugger (terrible paint match, not sure if I am going to install this)
Today I ordered (thank you Mottomummy)
ASV C5 levers
-1 Front sprocket
Speed Healer
Gell seat
I have about 1500 miles on the bike now and love it. First thing I did when I bought it was set up the suspension to me and amazingly had to make minimul adjustments.
Took it to the drag strip (its only a couple miles away...why not) a couple times with the best run of 7.0 at 110 (1/8th). Still have a long way to go before I get to where I should be (no I am not stretching or lowering this bike). I would imagine based off the the MPH alone I should be mid 6's or so if I can get my 60ft down.
I have a bunch of pictures that I will load shortly. I am currently TDY to Afghanistan for another week so when I get back I will post those up as well.
If you live in NOVA let me know, always looking for somebody (a reason) to ride.
And yes I have full protective gear so don't worry about that. I seem to like buying helmets though as I keep kicking them across parking lots for some reason...
