The Little Red Ninja


Six months. That's precisely how long we had to wait for the little red ninja to arrive all the way from Japan. But it is finally here, and just in time for the rainy season.

First impressions: it's stiffer than I remembered it to be, it's very responsive on the acceleration, controls are very heavy (pedals, gearbox) and most importantly it's very VERY fun in the wet. TC comes in quite fast, which is good, but you can still slide the back out just enough to splash a wide grin on your face.

Break-in takes the 1000 usual kilometers, but you can rev to 4k, which means you don't really have to hold back too much as long as you keep it gentle. Only ~600Km to go ...

So here it is ... waiting for the rain to come ... eagerly...


Stand by for those massive powerslides ...
