Kawasaki Zx9r rebuilt/ mild resto. This is my favourite part of a rebuild and that’s when you are no longer taking bad parts off, instead you are adding value by putting good parts back on.

Zx9r ninja update #zx9r #kawasaki #smallchannelmafia
At the end of the dukes pass series I had decided to ride home from Tyndrum to Loch Lomond with my cameras switched off.
I then thought I would take the opportunity to show you some of the fantastic scenery and give you all a little update on the zx9r.
Work is in progress as we speak so content will start coming onto my channel.
Take care and stay safe.
