After a long time waiting...

Well after a long time waiting (to get my full license) i finally got the opportunity to step out on the zx6 this morning.
Now all i need to do is go out on a day which isnt freezing! Lucky i had my neck warmer....
I have put up some pictures so you can see how i have spent the last 6 months of not riding the bike. Sorry for the poor quality, it was taken with my phone and it was pretty early.
As you can see in its non-riding time the bike has received important additions as tinted screen, exhaust, stickers and blue brake / clutch levers.
Thanks to everyone who has been so helpful with advice along the way.

That's a very nice 6 you have there, and welcome to the club
Was it tempting to ride, bet you're glad you waited and the effort is well worth the 6mths.
See ya on the road

Thanks

I like it. Don't know if i can actually be considered part of a riding club yet. My riding skill level doesnt really warrant such a title
It wasn't really all that tempting to ride. Every time i thought about it, i remembered how much effort i put into doing the MOST test and how i really didnt want to have to start over again. In saying that, there were lots of times i wanted to ride it, but just couldnt justify the risk.

I really do need to find out where this "pie in the sky" is.
I have heard a lot about it, but no idea where it is.

thats a gorgeous 6 you have there, Yes the wait is truely annoying but as you have said the risk does not warrant the thrill of a joy ride up the road.

We're not a riding club.......we're a social club that rides to and from events
Nice bike - enjoy!
