- First ride with my newly built Kawasaki ZX12R around Killarney, averaged 1:22's, managed a few 1:21's, blew left front shock seal, smoked the brakes, and have an oil leak from clutch casing.. all in all a very good day!

No video?
Awesome work! Are you still riding her at the track? How well did you do against the more (as they say) 'flickable' liter bikes?
Super
Thanks Richard, Johnny is nie dood nie, Johnny is nie dood nie, hy is net uuuuuiitgepaaaas ;)
Woooowww
I am finding a banging deal for a pristine condition 2005 ZX12 (trade my shiver 750 + 500euros). Initially i was thinking i'd like a flickable bike with about 120-160 hp next, but I've seen and riden the bike (highway only unfortunatelly) and it is an absolute bargain so I am completely torn inside. I want it but I don't know if it's truly what i'd to progress to.
How would you say it fairs in canyon roads and general flickability?
Btw I was amazed I saw you pass the Stig on the outside
She is on the bigber and heavier side, but definitely does not feel that way. She handles her weight very well. That said I'm a taller oke, 1.87m around 95kg, which probably helped. I bought a few race bikes before and after this (2008 R1, 2002 Sp2, 2004 Rvt, Cbr600) and still to today say the zx12 was one of the best I had.
Welldone bra lyk befok
Well 2 mins into this video i had to turn OFF the absolutely horrible sound !!! It took over the vid about a bike i own myself and just wanted to See what these guys were like in the track. A bit more aggressive. I dont know how far into the video the music ( if you could calm it that) was. So watched the rest with NO SOUND. Im sure the video producer could have someother sound track to suit. The engine note would have been better.
Video content was good but zero points for the music!!.
