I never thought I would,but the new thing was delivered today.
I haven't hardly had a minute to myself since my Da fell a couple of weeks ago,it's been a constant round of hospitals and social services,so I haven't even been able to sit on it,or tell you much/anything. I wanted to share anyway,proper pics and thoughts when life calms down a little. I almost feel guilty allowing myself to enjoy anything at the moment.

Can't you tell from the clocks? It's a Royal Enfield (obviously).

Neutral works - so it's not a buell or a Ducati ....

Braided hoses!
I thought only the Brits and Italians did braided hoses from the factory?

Wibble. Enjoy that! Looks extremely purposeful and is very much going to be a hoot to ride!

I still don’t really know what it is exzackerly (apart from being a Kawasaki) but it looks a very big bad boy and has lots of nice bits and pieces on it!
Happy riding!

Nice one,
The styling is not to my taste, but I've sat on one and they feel "right", the retro styled Z900RS doesn't feel as nice, but looks better.

I can't put my finger on it but it's got a wiff of GSXR slabby about it.
I thought it looked more Italjet Dragster
