My New SA


Frankie

Recommended Posts

Last year I bought an SA with the white dial and after a few weeks I sold it as I decided the SA was a bit big and white dials were'nt really me.

Since then I found I was missing the SA so have bought another and sent it off the Vac for a dial change to a genuine black baton dial and the hands/bezel to get matching lume. So heres the photo. sorry if its not a great pic as I am no David Bailey and it was taken in a hurry but I will take some better ones latter along with a lume shot.

The chrono hour hand at 6 looks like its misaligned but its now reset perfectly at the 12 mark.

Its now a keeper once I get use to the weight and my gorilla strap on a Pro Racer buckle arrives :)

After 25 years of Honda's this is my first Kawasaki which I,ve had to 2 years and love it.

It handles better then my old blackbirds and suits my 6ft 4 height, I took out the secondary flies and fitted a PC so now its got 172 at the back wheels and over 100 ft lbs of torque :thumbsupsmileyanim:

Suuuuuuuhweeeeet!! That's a beast right there!! The ZZr600 was my first 'big bike' and I loved it, bought a G1 Model ZX6R after that, awesome bike, could throw it around like a toy, sooo much fun on the track!! Then got wiped out and my back badly broken and was off them for a while. Then I got a CBR600fx and played on that for a while, getting my confidence back, my right leg was partially paralysed after the crash. After I got some confidence back and changed my riding style a bit to offset my right leg I got a GSXR1000 ltd ed Black Stealth, (I'll need to get a pic of that with my Blacksteel at somepoint!! Never thought of that!) I had a friend from when I raced who made custom rearsets, he made me a set with the right hand one a bit 'spikier' than the left so my boot wouldn't slide off and I was gone!! It's a K4 edition, puts out around 185BHP at the back and handles like an absolute dream!!

I so wish I could still ride, even when it's raining or freezing cold, I would still love to be out there with a huge grin on my face!!

Getting a Blade to do as it's told around Knockhill!!

You should talk to Bike Mike, as his name suggests he can peddle a good bit too!! He has awesome pics from his racing/track days!!

Stay safe man!!
