Hi there, I'm new to the forum, and picking up my new black 2015 ninja 1000 ABS today. Ive been a Kawi guy all my life having owned a ZX12r, two ZX10r's a KLR and I still have a bobbed out 1979 KZ400. For the last 2 seasons I switched to a Ducati 1199 Panigale, which I have now put 34,000kms on, I love my Pani and intend on keeping it, but because I do huge mileage on my bikes I needed something a little more "distance" freindly, so here I am picking up my new ride today....very excited about it.
