Philfingers- 8 is a good number Smile. I used to have a zxr750h2 in red. I've got the seat cowl if you want it. Also got a ZXR750J standard exhaust.

It's proving tricky to get a reply from the dealers about the MV. I've sent emails asking for a cash price but nobody has replied. Maybe they don't want to sell me one?

Ring them up - they'll answer the phone but read emails first then maybe reply ...

Yeah, I'm in Portugal at the moment so will ring around when I get back. Also plan on visiting a dealer with a demo bike and try it out. Tbh I think I want one anyway* Cool

Holy fook... that's the sexiest thing i've seen in a while! I'm guessing the factory purposely left some bits off for the photo's? No pillion pegs, no mirrors, no indicators. Love the stand

I can't wait for the call to say it's time to collect it. I've never ridden a bike with traction control, or slipper clutch/engine maps/quick shifter/etc.. it'll be a new experience. I've read that the throttle could do with a bit more resistance, it's a drive-by-wire system rather than a cable.

Here's an image with the mirrors, indicators, and pillion pegs fitted. Cool
