Engine: 1000cc

Exhaust: stock, Yoshi on the way.

Suspension: stock Showa suspension.

Modifications: None right now, just got it.

Estimated Power: 191hp at crank, 165.4hp @ wheel according to dyno runs from magazines.


Just picked up and brought my new bike home. Was only a short distance but all i can say is first snicking first gear and the bike automatically creeps forward

I just know this bike wants to get up and go, and GO it does, taking it easy and on C-Mode cause of wet roads, new tyres and no insurance just yet lol.. Im told C-Mode to fullpower A-Mode is a 25hp difference. Cant wait to press A :angel:

Man this thing is SEX in white, glad i chose it over the traditional blue, its soo clean, simple but stylish. The gold wheels are easy to clean, and what a clour, these pictures definitely dont do it justice.

Picked it up with 0km's, now has 11km's, i plan to start running it in on a warmer day, and vary the revs till first service.

Yoshi pipe from Suzuki will come soon, but Leo Vince may be on order, and definitely putting a fender eliminator.

Hope you like, Haters dont post a comment, or keep it friendly.

Wow looks great. If you don't mind my asking mate, how much does one of these cost? I don't know anything about bikes.

they're really gone for the "predator" look now.. im not sure if im a fan, would be awesome to ride though. does she handle like a 600?

Gold wheels are anything but easy to keep clean. The back especially with all the sh!t the chain will fling on it.

nice purchase though, be a bit of a step up from the r6. not sure if i like the wheels however.......

nice gixxer mate, but not a fan of the twin exhausts on 1ks..thats more of a busa thing. but very sweet.

Looks like she would fly!

Dealers first say $20,600 on road, but really they quote $2grand more and work there way down to what really they can do. Looking at $18,000 on road, but alot of dealers refused to match that and couldnt get near that by almost $1000.

Twin exhausts are going in favour of single Yoshi soon, EASY FIX

It feels very light, only a tad heavoer when your walking it, but once riding it doesnt feel any different to the R6. same size, only a bigger tail section, but im 5'11" so i dont notice it.

It fly's, but im yet to test it fully, as its just got 20km's now, hope the weather is clear tomorrow for a fang/break it in.

Cheers guys.

Very nice indeed.... where'd you get it from?

My local dealer here in Wollongong, NSW.

nice chicken strips

very nice

Haha, dude i picked it up on a rainy day with wet roads and new tyres i practically came to a stop when cornering this thing coming home, lol.

Congrats on the new bike, but really not a fan of the front of the new model Gixxers, ass end looks nice though

love it. im thinking of trading in the 750 for one... only thing i surgest mate... get a set of pazzo levers best money i ever spent on mine and a set of oggys... as you dont wanna ruin the paint on her....

fuck yea, i no stoped liking my shape gixxer and now love these, sxc bike mate

Thanks guys, this thing is nuts. Its got a Yoshi pipe on it now, and NO CAT
Make a huge difference, the thing is lifting the front in the air easy at only 6500rpms, in A mode, which is full power. Big mid range. ANd i lost huge weight from the old pipes and cat.

Pazzo levers are on the way, actually Titax short lever's, better





The old pipes:

looks sick wit the r77 exhaust dude... well done! let me guess gold to match the wheels? lol.

Thanks man. Not exactly a gold, but a sick nickel coloured titaniam-ish colour. Like a rose gold jewellery a little. I work for a bike parts place so i have connections

hook a brother up lol. hahaha im chasing a exhaust hanger for mine no one makes a decent one these days lol.

Oh shit, tell me about it ay.

I did searches everywhere, not much for the K9 1000, K7/K8 yes, mine is hard.

Leo Vince have a dry carbon hanger, but i think it comes with there pipes, im looking into hunting down a part number on it by itself.

Evotech sell good ones, but from the U.K and would set you back $100+ Aussy dollar once here. F*#k that, make one, lol.

Vortex have them too.

Nice Ride, GL with it

Thanks mate, little has changed, like BMC filter, PC 5, Hotbodies indicators (no mirrors ) Looks sleek, bloody flies..

Check my Drag bike i just finished
