I got this bike the first day of spring 2009. It's a 2009 Kawasaki ZX6R monster edition. It's gotten awesome reviews everywhere and it felt comfortable after sitting on it at the show.

I finally got to put some miles on this beauty this weekend and it feels fantastic.

Here are some pictures




A few more pictures from recent (spring/summer 2009) trackdays.

Plans
This bike will primarily be used at the track. I'm toying with sending out the forks and having better pistons installed, but honestly these forks feel great. Currently both front and rear need to be softened just a drop, but this should only be a few clicks away.

I'm getting race bodywork, I'm just waiting for it to be delivered and then I'll fit it and send out for paint. I'm trying to make my bike look somewhat like this below

History
So far I've got about 3,000 miles on the bike, I've lost track of the amount of times I've changed the oil and I've already replaced the OE rear tire with a same (non OE) Bridgestone BT016's 5 times, so I'm on my fifth rear tire already and I need a new one again.  I'm on the 2nd front and I replaced the front brake pads which were almost down to metal. These tires don't last long but they have great feel. Not sure what I'm going to try next, possibly Pirelli.
