If its your main transport I wouldnt do it... Had my zx10r since I got my P's and using it at trackdays to learn how to ride it! Problem is that its gone from a standard 10 to having stands, tyre warmers, raceglass, some mods, trailer, towbar on the car etc etc! The purchase price was just the start
In saying that its been a great way to learn how to ride the bike! Im still nowhere near all of the regular trackday pundits but believe Ive learnt a fair amount in regards to what the bike can do AND I CAN'T! Ill NEVER be as good as this or any other bike!!! Thats the essence of what Ive learnt! But its been heaps of fun learning
So think about it, do you really need it right now? Can it wait for 7 months to get a newer bike then or the same bike you could get now cheaper? Can you afford to do what Ive done? The consequences even if your not at fault in a prang are IMHO way too serious!!! But like been's said its up to you if your up to wearing the consequences should shit happen!
