Haha,,I've been keeping a bit of a low profile but if I'm gonna make a return then I may as well do it in style😉....😂. 
 
Yeah, I'm.a lucky chap alright, there's a few things I'll do to it over the next few years though so watch this space for fettle updates 😀

It should be with this swingarm, it needs refurbing but will look good, it's one of the parts on earlier 9's that's lacking is the spindly swingarm.

 Ooh, you modding your ZX9R? Is it a straight swap?.

Howdy lads.... just thought i better show my face and end the suspense,,I'm the , very lucky, new owner of Marko's 03.... 😀... I sold the zx9r a couple of weeks ago and Mark decided he was willing to let it go after all , so how could I refuse to partner up the Tuono with another Ape(And an evo5 to sit next to the evo6......I'm getting as bad as Nickyboy😂).... 

So it looks like I've got another long term project to get stuck into(No 1060 this time though, my nerves and bank balance couldn't handle that again😂).

It couldn't find a better home than the top class chap it's going to Wink

The thing is, when you've done all the work you have (I doubt there's a cleaner one out there), it's a long bonding process.

Thus parting is sweet sorrow.

Thanks for the kind words. This bike was in fairly regular condition when I got it (25k / 15 years of dirt, oil leaks, wiring issues, rusty bolts etc etc). Something like 180 hours of labour later and now she looks like this Smile

The pain of letting her go is definitely reduced by the fact it's going to somebody who will continue to throw time and money at her... Also the option to buy her back if the opportunity ever comes. Kind of feels like she's going on a long holiday LOL

Goodness me. Have the miles been racked up by just rotating the wheels on a paddock stand-(although that'd be a somewhat boring way to pass time)? It looks to have never been out of a garage.
I'd have to hang my head in shame each time I remove the fairings ...

Yeah man it was a huge amount of time and effort but I don't regret it. I'll do the same to the replacement too, if she sells. I know I'm asking top dollar especially considering the mileage (some have sold recently with half the miles for similar prices). I know I'd have paid the asking price when I was looking though. If I don't get what I'm after she can stay Smile

wow can't believe this is up for sale after the huge amount of work you've put into it.  Someone will be getting a fantastic machine thats for sure good luck with the sale mate and the trackbike hunt.

Possibly madness and I know I might live to regret this... It's an awesome bike but the reality is I'm not getting much of a buzz riding it on the road. I'm going to be looking for another track bike instead. If I had the money for both she would be staying but saving for a house deposit means it's one or the other Ouch
