Hi fellow gixxer owners.
This is by far the best bike i've ever owned. As many if you know the k5/k6 model was the highest power to weight ratio gixxer made. At 166kg it is just awesome. I've had an R1 before which was newer and fairly quick but a bit heavy to throw around. Manufacturers should concentrate on keeping their bikes light. All these gizmos like traction control, launch control, fart control etc are pointless if the bike is too heavy. Most thousands today are around the 200kg range which I think is too much.
I love my k6. I adapted the yoshimura limited edition paint job on the 2014 model onto mine and it would give anyone a hard on. I'll post pics soon.
