I have been pondering the idea of buying one of these bikes but it doesnt look like it is going to be a possability because nobody has them. I have looked all over craigslist and also a few dealerships around the hillsboro area. Im not sure if i would be able to part with the money, buttttt these machines are absolutely beautiful. I dont really care if it is an ABS model or not, BUT it absolutely must be kawi green!!!! has anyone seen 11s or 12s anywhere for sale? |

I do like the increased performance on the top end of the new ZX compared to the last Gen however the looks of the new bike is not as appealing as the last gen to me. There not so rare you can't find one if you have the funds. If you can swing a deal on a color other than green at a good price i know Russ Foy at custom classics will paint it for a grand. He does absolutely great work! Good luck on the new Ninja. |

I understand it's black, but my bike is flawless, plus I just had MotoCorsa install brand new Dunlop Q2 tires this week and it has a fresh full synthetic oil change. This bike is truly ready to ride and needs nothing else. If you're interested hit me up. I'll go $11,500 and throw in like new front and rear Pitbull stands with the sale. PM me if you want to take a look at the bike. |

| Training Wheels Joined: Apr 2012 From: Longview | If anyone is looking to buy a zx10 check out TeeDub's. I don't care what color it is he has done so much to that bike it is hands down a great buy. Besides, you can buy some green fairings from your dealer (or better yet ebay) for not a lot of money if you really want to change the color. As a side.... I own a 2012 ZX10. Best bike I have ever had. You can't go wrong. |

| Endorsed Joined: Jun 2009 From: Beaverton, OR I Ride: 09' Zx-10 | I got mine 2 years old with 0 miles and it was way cheaper then brand new. I do agree with the looks but I don't think the performance needs to be much better. Lol. You should just wait another year and see if you can find the same deal. Got mine at motosport hillsboro. |

The 10 is a lot of bike for a newer rider and since you are mainly buying on impulse, save yourself some money and heartache and don't. Your accounts and credit will thank you. Because the next generation ZX10 will be even better and the 636 you were thinking about is not a bad idea. |
