bmg Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 so losing sleep now, travel down to harrogate to pick my zed up on tuesday, cannot wait. its. 2005 gunmetal , 41 k . new tyres, brakes, fnsh. and alzean leather and rays as well. feel sorry for my bike now as i think it senses a new toy is coming soon. althgh the zed is close to 300bhp i dont think it will ever come close to the wtf moments a bike can provide. part of the deal with the good lady is i trade in my other car for something super practical and cheap to run. also am a environmental assessor so cant imagine it will look great pulling up in the zed, although i can imagine even the crustiest tree hugger will appreciate its a beutiful car.. il post some pics up when i get it. already order my snow foam, clay and r222 wax in preparation for spending more time with my car than people. any good ideas for a good practical second car, thinkinga little 1.6 civic, maybe a a golf. imlike to stay jap or german(ish) for my cars and bikes. thanks agan to everyone for their advice and input so far b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, I think they do. As long as it throw a hissy fit. And no it won't to perhaps quite the same degree, but if you're not wary and paying attention, they can bite, and bite hard like most reasonably powered cars will.

bmg Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 Very nice. Even the calipers look spotless i cant quite believe how spotless the car is, even the engine bay is cleaner than my mates 6 month old merc. just trying to get used to the clutch, seems to have a high biting point, but the gearbox is ridiculous smooth, using 2 fingers mostly to change gears>> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmg Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 Looks very tidy, you must be chuffed Extremely chuffed, am such a bad environmentalist.. Feel bad trying to recommend green tech to people when am rocking up in a proper iceberg melter. Ah well i hear polar bears are pretty bitey anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC350Z Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 your not the first to mention high bite on the clutch do a search on here think the was a tread about this and adjusting it nice z tho looks like its been looked after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
14N Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Hello, congrats on your new puirchase and to the forum. Car looks great, even in the rain (nice colour too) My bike has sat unused in the garage since I bought my Zed. (Might also have something to do with the cack weather we've had). Enjoy!
