My 2002 ZX12R summary
I bought this bike brand new on Feb/2002. With 800 miles;not even broken in a dumb rider jumps from one lane off my left to exit on a close exit, I didnt have a chance to brake so here I was on the ground with a broken front end and mirror. After fixing the bike and going through my break in period I started enjoying the power ; I had never been on a bike as Strong as this bike I was very pleased with it.
Later on I started hanging out with a few local riders, (Monkey see monkey do)they were doing wheelies and stand up wheelies ; oh well , lets see what the 12 does, . 1st gear power wheelies were awesome like from 30 all the way into the 90Mph area. A Year later im doing 2nd gear stand ups ; the most exciting rush I had ever felt.
After 2 years of riding it , another accident, two of my buddies did lil wheelies on a street and I was behind so i followed, I think i followed too close cause they only did a short wheelie and me? well I was ready for a long wheelie and pummmm I hit my buddies bike;another front end.
Nov/2003 after a 1 1/2 hours of back to back wheelies we decided to leave the area of fun, I get on my bike ride a last wheelie and come down to a real nasty tank slapper(i was playing with the wheel in the air and it wasnt center when i came down).
I changed colors , went from Passion Red to Black with Blue Flakes, had been a good boy since till I sold it.
Over all; after all the accidents and fun I give my 12R an EXCELENT BIKE performance for time owned ,I was very pleased mechanicaly,performance,and comfort wised with it.
Hopefully Ill be riding my own 10R soon and expect the same or better life of it.
Long story but I thought id shared my first Truly performance bike attributes with u all..
