    This one https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kawasaki-...EAAOSwKxVcawzI auctioned at £1250. I'd ask £1450 ONO, wouldn't mention the engine change either unless asked.

    That kind of bike you'd get a bit more for if you waited till the "season".

    Larry can't log in. Has changed computer and lost e-mail + password details.

    Has sent several mails to admin to no avail. He intends to re-register under another name.

    Has told me he will swap the bird for the K + £200

    I've ridden a Blackbird before. It felt like riding a great white shark, as in it was a big grey monster. When opening it up, it just kept going, awesomely fast and linear power. I didn't find it comfy, though that's relative as at the time I was used to a much more upright bike. Would probably get used to it, but quite tucked in position and a bit of a wide bike. Brakes were very good. Don't think there's much out there with more power for the money? Twin exhausts look meaty. Personally around a litre I'd be looking for something like a 2004 Kawasaki Z1000 (4 exhausts), or Triumph Speed Triple. That said the Honda Firestorms look nice... or a Fireblade is a classic. Or A Daytona 955i, or a Zx-9r...

    ... Then there's also the Fazer 1000; seems a sensible buy or an R1 surely wouldn't disappoint.

    Makes sense to chat to burbler.
