welcome to posting

your newbie thread is for telling us a bit about your biking history etc (with pics if poss:-) )
the correct section for bike advice would be the 5jj section;-)
theres a few on here that are sh!t with spelling/grammar so you're not alone m8
treat everyone with respect unless they prove themselves unworthy:-)

Welcome in Adam
As Einstein ( Clarky ) says give us a bit about your biking history so we can get to know you . Good luck with the 5jj they're a cracking bike & yes 5jj section would be best for your 5jj woes
As for spelling , have you met pinnit & SteveR1yet ?

Welcome in Mate and enjoy the forum.
Photobucket just drag and drop em in or hit upload and select from your hard drive. Then click on the photo(s) and copy the IMG url link from the box straight into ya post.
Jompy put some better instructions than that up somewhere but i can't find them. Anyway it's fairly painless.

Welcome, they are still a great bike. Not sure how often you'll ride the ZX9 once you have the R1 on the road though ...

Chears boys its got few cracks on front fairing but overall looks good .
Got told the bike been tuned jet kit k&n airfilter and racefit exhaust all done buy a tuning shop back in 2012 since then my mate bought it and decided to travel so pritty much sat in shed ever since part from few sunny days hear there.
Again not sure if jets been done or not dont know how find out . But its the loudest thing ever hurd when started puts the race can on the ninja to shame . .. anyway i start a thread on the 5jj soon for help also got dyno graph up i need somone to explain if good or not . .
