those of you who have bought new.. what have you paid to get it on the road

and with what accesories, if any.

would be great to know.. considering a new bike myself.

would love the litre bike, but the 600's cornering is more than impressive.

I bought an '05 ZX-10R just over a year ago and rolled it out the door for $17,800, it came with a free Kawasaki "Racing kit for track days" which included Michelin Pilot Power tyres, Goodridge braided front brake lines, AFAM gold alloy rear sprocket, pick up knobs for a race stand and an Akrapovic Ti muffler

To roll a stock 10R out the door you could get it for low $17K I am sure maybe less, don't forget about insurance though as thats where it hurts, if under 30 be sitting down when you get a quote

I must admit I actually went out to buy the new ZX-6R but the free track kit on the 10R sealed the deal, by the time I would have replaced the equivalent bits on the 6R it worked out more expensive, but after riding a big bike don't assume a 600 will handle better, the big bikes are so light and small now they are almost identical in 600's, they just require a lot more care with the throttle

Here is my ride & my bros. He rides the 660 grizzly & mine is the suzuki kingquad 700efi. Wont catch me riding a 2 wheeler on the road. Other road users are too dangerous to be around.

sorry no can show today but nestled in between the 5.7 & 6.0 is a 05 wr250 yam, a bmw k1200 s and a triumph 1050 speed triple with a 3 into one pipe and a re-map she nows puts down 126hp at the wheel and is barking mad to ride.

GSXR600K1 road bike with every go fast component on it except for wave rotors which I just cant justify.

GSXR600K1 track bike pretty stock with only rear sets, filter, pwrcmd, pipe and 520 conversion.

KTM300EXC for the dirt - two stroke weaon - too easy to hurt myself on. Ive started riding in the dirt to improve my road riding as Ive heard countless times that its excellent cross training but its also a great way to hurt yourself.
